New paper in Proceedings B: about chemicals and biological invasions

Our latest review, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, explores how chemical pollution and biological invasions – two major drivers of global change – interact to shape ecosystems. While both stressors are well known to affect wildlife and ecosystem health, their combined impacts are still rarely studied. In this paper, we synthesize existing

New paper in Science

Our latest research is out in Science Magazine! We show how pharmaceutical pollution can disrupt the river-to-sea migration of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). It highlights just how far-reaching the effects of human medicines can be on aquatic life. You can read the article here or read about it on the Newsroom of UNamur!
