CORNETTE Richard
Researcher 
Research field :Physiology and molecular biology. Mainly analysis of gene expression patterns accompanying physiological responses to the environment. Now studying genes involved in the anhydrobiosis of the sleeping chironomid (Polypedilum vanderplanki) and developing RNAi for functional analysis of such genes.
