Sabine ROUSSEL

Sabine ROUSSEL is a University Professor at the University of Western Brittany (UWB), affiliated with the LEMAR Laboratory (Laboratoire d’Environnement Marin et d’Aquaculture de Brest). Her research focuses on ethology, stress physiology, and aquaculture, with a strong emphasis on marine organisms like the European abalone (Haliotis tuberculata). She investigates the impacts of environmental stressors (e.g., ocean acidification, temperature changes) on animal physiology, behavior, and genetic diversity.

Key research areas include transgenerational effects of stress, domestication impacts on anti-predator behavior, and stock enhancement strategies for aquaculture. Her work integrates genetics, ecology, and physiology to address challenges in marine conservation and climate adaptation. She collaborates on projects like GenOrmeau, HOPOPoP, and ORMEL, focusing on interdisciplinary solutions for marine biodiversity and ocean health.

Her publications span over two decades, addressing topics from goat gestational nutrition to the physiological responses of fish and invertebrates under climatic scenarios. Despite no explicit awards listed, her extensive contributions to marine and animal science reflect significant scholarly impact.
