About the Author
Florian Malard works at CNRS (French National Centre for Scientific Research) and University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, France. Dr Florian Malard is a groundwater evolutionary ecologist. Over the last ten years, his research focus has been on understanding patterns of groundwater biodiversity at regional to continental scales. He has led the "Ecology, Evolution and Groundwater Ecosystems" research group, formerly headed by Professor Janine Gibert, the lead editor of the first edition of the Groundwater Ecology book published in 1994. Christian Griebler works at the University of Vienna, Austria. Dr Christian Griebler is a functional ecologist with a broad research interest stretching from the roles of microorganisms to metazoans in groundwater ecosystems. Rooted in aquatic microbial ecology and biogeochemistry, his research group tackles groundwater biodiversity, cycling of carbon and nutrients, effects of climate and global change, as well as the assessment of groundwater systems in terms of ecological status. Sylvie Retaux works at CNRS and University Paris-Saclay, France. Dr Sylvie Retaux is a neuroscientist and developmental biologist whose interests have shifted to evolutionary biology about 20 years ago. Her laboratory works on ecological evolutionary developmental biology of a cave-dwelling organism, the blind cavefish Astyanax mexicanus. Using an integrated approach combining embryology, neuroscience, behavior, and population genetics, she aims at discovering the mechanisms of adaptation to life in the dark.
