I am an undergraduate student from France and I'm currently doing an internship in the Deheyn's lab to complete my formation in biology. I have always been fascinated by the ocean, its living organisms and the mystery that still remains about it. I decided to work on bioadhesion and especially on the adhesion of the particles responsible for marine fungi's reproduction, the spores. Our goal is to understand the link between the type of surface the fungi attach to, and the ultrastructure of spores, in order to understand and then avoid the adhesion of these organisms on boats, maritime platforms or fabrics.
