Séverine Fourdrilis

Summary

Séverine Fourdrilis is a molecular biologist at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences. She studies the evolution of species (e.g. marine snails, invasive frog), using population genetics and phylogeny.
Séverine also studied the metabolic toxicity of mercury in fish, as well as developed a method to quantify traces of allergens in food, using proteomics.
Her next research studies the genetic response of corals to ocean warming, using CRISPR genome-editing to characterise gene functions.
