General interest in Hydrozoa (morphology, histology, life cycle, development…). After a PhD in Biology (unfortunately on a research project in immunology), I really want to reorient my scientific career to the marine biology field, which is my real passion from more than 10 years. As a passionate of representatives of Class Hydrozoa, I observe, photograph, and made permanent microslide preparations of material collected from European seas (more than 30 species of hydrozoans are actually presented on my web site, with some detailed descriptions and many photomicrographs; more species will be regularly added). I am also interested in doing a post-doc on a project concerning the hydrozoan biology.

For the last 10 years, my graduate students and I have been working with the ecology, life cycle, morphology, and more recently the molecular level systematics of Craspedacusta sowerbii. We also have been identifying and cataloging the distribution of this freshwater species here in PA and elsewhere. We have located sites for C. sowerbii in 50 of the 67 counties of PA, over 40 states, and some Canadian provinces. Essential to our work over the years are the polyp cultures we maintain in our lab. They regularly produce medusae, polyps, and frustule larvae year around. Anything about C. sowerbii interests us, since there are so many unanswered questions about them.

I am interested in all aspects of the biology and ecology (distribution, seasonality, predation, ...) of the "gelatinous carnivores' - Cnidarians and Ctenophores - and especially planktonic medusae. I try also to consider all life stages, including benthic stage and so to learn more about it.

My lab is focusing on phylogeny of medusozoans, specially hydrozoans and cubozoans. For that, the main research lines are systematics (at specific and higher levels), life cycles, ecology and any other data useful for cladistic analysis or biogeography.

My research deals with the ecology of the mesopelagic hydromedusae. This includes vertical and temporal distributions, feeding biology and behavior, reproductive biology, parasitic interactions among the cnidaria, and taxonomic issue of the group. I am presently working on the hydromedusae community of the Monterey Bay and associated submarine canyon using remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) at MBARI.

I am interested in all aspects of the biology of hydropolyps and hydromedusae, and moreover in Physalia and in Cubozoa. I am studying these organisms in islands of the SW of the Indian Ocean which is a tropical area. I like to look at the species on life, trying to understand something about their way of life: mode of reproduction, life cycle, feeding, behavior, relations with other organisms and environment, ecological distribution, life history, nematocysts, and of course morphology and anatomy, in relation with all.

My interests are primarily with planktonic medusae (and ctenophores) - I am interested in almost all aspects of the biology of these animals.  I should know more about the hydroids, since they are the often the same animals as hydromedusae, but sometimes things just don't work out that way.

I am interested in many aspects of philogeny and morphological, mainly concerned with nervous system.

I am interested in the phylogeny of hydrozoans because phylogeny provides a context for asking and answering evolutionary questions. And, as we all know, Hydrozoans pose some fascinating evolutionary questions.
