This year’s speaker, Christian Sardet, is the creator of award-winning documentaries, animated films and DVDs, Christian received the European Award for Communication in Life Sciences from the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and received the “Légion d’Honneur” for his contributions.
In his own words his talk will cover:
A dozen years ago, with a few colleagues I imagined the Tara Oceans expedition, an exploration of plankton in all oceans of the world, the results of which are still a source of new discoveries. To accompany and popularize the expedition, with my son Noé, we imagined “Plankton Chronicles”, an art and science project which included a web site, videos, photos, exhibits & installations, a book and workshops. In the last few years I’ve been writing and drawing about cells and evolution for the publication of a new book. Book here.
