Isabelle Arpin, a sociologist from Grenoble, organised a 2-day seminar on interdisciplinarity. The idea was for the participants to share their experience in practicing interdisciplinarity.
Blaise defended his PhD I co-supervised with Pierre-Yves Quenette from ONCFS (manuscript here). Blaise studied the attitudes of the public toward brown bear presence and provided sound estimates of abundance and distribution for the species in the Pyrenees.
During the period 2013-2015, the NGO GIS3M led the GDEGeM project in which tons of data (on abundance and distribution among others) were collected on bottlenose dolphins.
I acted as president of the examining committee of Sarah Calba who defended her PhD in epistemology of sciences with the predictions in community ecology as a case study. The thesis was supervised by two clever colleagues of mine, Virginie Maris and Vincent Devictor.
Sending questionnaires for Blaise’s PhD to study the local perception of the presence of brown bears in the Pyrénées. First picture, the 3000 questionnaires to be sent; second picture, those questionnaires once packed in boxes; third picture, the nice guy from the mail company La Poste comes and picks them up.
