Congratulations to CORU Graduates Virginie Bornarel and Vianney Guibourd de Luzinais!

May 28, 2025

Congratulations to Dr. Virginie Bornarel and Dr. Vianney Guibourd de Luzinais on the successful completion of their doctoral research.

Dr. Virginie Bornarel (PhD, Zoology) has made significant contributions to ecological and fisheries science, with expertise in statistical and end-to-end modeling of marine ecosystems. Her work sheds light on the drivers behind declining European eel populations and fish production under climate change, offering valuable insights through advanced simulations of complex marine systems.

Dr. Vianney Guibourd de Luzinais (PhD, OCF) has tackled the pressing issue of marine heatwaves and their cascading effects on marine food webs at a global scale. Through the development of EcoTroph-Dyn, a dynamic ecosystem modeling tool, Vianney has demonstrated how extreme climate events disrupt biomass flow and threaten marine biodiversity, with far-reaching implications for the future of global fisheries.

Their research highlights the vital role of modeling in understanding and preparing for the challenges facing ocean life under climate change. Congratulations again, many thanks to your many contributions to the Changing Ocean Research Unit, and best of luck!
