Projects we are involved in

  • Aquastress 

    The AquaStress project investigates multiple stress in aquatic systems across multiple levels of biological organization and to assess to what extent multiple stress effects occurring at higher levels of organization can be predicted/explained based on observations of effects occurring at lower levels.

  • ChimERA - An integrated modelling tool for ecological risk assessment
    This project will integrate Environmental Risk Assessment's building blocks into one predictive tool that will be subject to extensive testing using data from experimental work and using uncertainty and sensitivity analyses.

  • Daphnia Genomics Consortium
    An international network of investigators committed to mounting the freshwater crustacean Daphnia as a model system for ecology, evolution and the environmental sciences.

  • STRESSFLEA
    STRESSFLEA develops and uses genomics tools to unravel patterns and mechanisms of adaptation to anthropogenic and natural stressors in natural populations, using the water flea Daphnia magna as a model system.
