Dr Nirmala SÉON-MASSIN

Director of Expertise, Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle

After a PhD in Ecology, I have dedicated my career to the science policy interface on environmental issues, and more specifically biodiversity. I have worked in different French public agencies providing scientific advice on a wide array of topics (pesticides, water, wildlife, invasive alien species...) and I am director of Expertise at the French Museum of Natural History and manager of the European Topic Centre on Biological Diversity, as well as deputy Secretary General of the French IUCN Committee.
