Overview

Simon Blanchet is affiliated with the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) in France. Their research focuses on environmental science and biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology, with substantial contributions in related subfields including ecology, nature and landscape conservation, genetics, ecology, evolution, behavior and systematics, and molecular biology.

The scientist has published extensively on topics such as fish ecology and management studies, genetic diversity and population structure, environmental DNA in biodiversity studies, species distribution and climate change, animal behavior and reproduction, parasite biology and host interactions, and identification and quantification in food.

Recent papers include:

  • Life history, climate and biogeography interactively affect worldwide genetic diversity of plant and animal populations (2021, Nature Communications)
  • Global determinants of freshwater and marine fish genetic diversity (2020, Nature Communications)
  • A river runs through it: The causes, consequences, and management of intraspecific diversity in river networks (2020, Evolutionary Applications)
  • Assessing metacommunity processes through signatures in spatiotemporal turnover of community composition (2020, Ecology Letters)
  • Intraspecific diversity loss in a predator species alters prey community structure and ecosystem functions (2021, PLoS Biology)

Frequent co-authors of Simon Blanchet include Géraldine Loot, Charlotte Veyssière, Jérôme G. Prunier, Lisa Jacquin, and Allan Raffard.

Their work is often published in outlets such as bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Nature Communications, Molecular Ecology, Oikos, and Genes. Among these venues, bioRxiv hosts the greatest number of their publications.
