Overview

Françoise Médale is affiliated with INRAE (Institut national de recherche pour l'agriculture, l'alimentation et l'environnement) in France. Their research primarily focuses on agricultural and biological sciences, with significant contributions in aquatic science, physiology, and immunology.

The scientist's works span various aspects of aquaculture nutrition, growth, and reproductive biology, along with disease management and microbiota in aquatic species.

  • Aquaculture Nutrition and Growth
  • Reproductive Biology and Impacts on Aquatic Species
  • Aquaculture Disease Management and Microbiota
  • Animal Genetics and Reproduction
  • Insect Utilization and Effects
  • Agriculture and Rural Development Research
  • Animal Testing and Alternatives

Médale has published notable papers including:

  • Review: Quality and authentication of organic animal products in Europe, 2021, animal
  • Putative imbalanced amino acid metabolism in rainbow trout long term fed a plant-based diet as revealed by ¹H-NMR metabolomics, 2021, Journal of Nutritional Science
  • A plant-based diet differentially affects the global hepatic methylome in rainbow trout depending on genetic background, 2022, Epigenetics
  • Why Do Some Rainbow Trout Genotypes Grow Better With a Complete Plant-Based Diet? Transcriptomic and Physiological Analyses on Three Isogenic Lines, 2021, Frontiers in Physiology
  • Qualités des viandes: influences des caractéristiques des animaux et de leurs conditions d'élevage, 2020, INRAE Productions Animales

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Médale include:

  • Florence Lefèvre
  • Généviève Corraze
