Frederic Silvestre Lab

The Laboratory of Evolutionary and Adaptive Physiology LEAP (Frederic Silvestre Lab) from the University of Namur, Belgium, aims to understand how organisms adapt and evolve in a changing environment. It mostly studies aquatic species, such as killifish, at behavioural, physiological, and molecular (epigenetic) levels, and the effects of stressors like environmental pollutants. This channel is dedicated to scientific outreach of our work.
