Far from having the “IQ of an oyster” or the “memory of a goldfish”, marine animals are in fact pure geniuses! Shrimps that boil the sea, plankton that repairs our climate, sponges that live for more than 10,000 years. For those who know how to observe them, fish, molluscs and shellfish become engineers, navigators, painters and doctors of the future.
Biophysicist and naturalist Bill François, author of the excellent book Les Génies des mers, invites us to discover all these characteristics in what promises to be a fascinating conference.
