Emeritus Research Director, CNRS
Eric Karsenti contributed to the understanding of molecular mechanisms. He has also demonstrated how the mitotic spindle assembly process works. Finally, he applied these principles, established at the cellular level, to the mechanisms of morphogenesis in the embryo, in particular within the department of cell biology and biophysics that he created at EMBL.
He was the organizer of the Tara Oceans expedition (2009-2013) and research program, whose work made it possible to characterize viruses, bacteria, protists and zooplankton in about 70% of the oceans. 90% of the viruses and eukaryotes as well as 50% of the bacteria were unknown, and more than 50% of the genetic discovered are new.
