Marie Perrin

Marie Perrin serves as a Teacher Researcher in Ecology and Agronomic Sciences at ISARA Lyon within the Engineering School in Agronomy, Food, and Environment and the Agroecology and Environment Research Unit. She joined ISARA Lyon in 2023 following a temporary teaching and research assistantship at Avignon University (2021-2023).

Her educational background includes:

• PhD in Agronomic Sciences from Avignon University (2022)
• Master's in Biodiversity, Ecology and Evolution (Research track, 2018)
• University Diploma of Technology in Biological Engineering (Environmental Engineering option, 2015)

Dr. Perrin specializes in pest ecology within perennial cropping systems, with particular focus on biological control mechanisms and climate change impacts on pest management. Her research integrates field ecology with molecular analysis to examine how temperature fluctuations and chemical interventions affect pest-natural enemy dynamics. She actively investigates sustainable alternatives to conventional pesticides through agroecological practices, emphasizing ecosystem-based regulation services in Mediterranean agricultural landscapes.

Her publication record demonstrates consistent progression toward climate-resilient pest management solutions, with recent work analyzing synergistic stressors (heat + insecticides) on codling moth physiology and developing predictive models for pest outbreaks under warming scenarios. This trajectory highlights growing emphasis on transdisciplinary approaches bridging entomology, climatology, and sustainable agriculture.

Within the Agroecology and Environment Research Unit, Dr. Perrin contributes to collaborative projects examining the agroecological transition of Mediterranean farming systems, particularly through study trips focused on sustainable perennial crop management and climate adaptation strategies.
