Chantal Conand (born 10 April 1943) is a French marine biologist and oceanographer.
Conand obtained her PhD in biological oceanography at University of Western Brittany in Brest in 1988. Her thesis focused on Aspidochirotida of the New Caledonia Barrier Reef (French: Les Holothuries aspidochirotes du lagon de Nouvelle-Calédonie).[1] In January 1993, she joined the marine ecology laboratory (ECOMAR) at the University of La Réunion and eventually became its chief scientist.[2] Her expertise extends to all echinoderms of the Indo-Pacific, but her work has focused on sea cucumbers,[3] but also on other echinoderms of la Réunion.[4] Her other work has included studies of the crown-of-thorns starfish, which preys upon hard, or stony, coral polyps (Scleractinia). She was a member of the scientific committee of the Western Indian Ocean Marine Science Association from 2001 to 2004. She has since retired and become emeritus faculty.[5]
Selected works
Her works include more than thirty books or book chapters and over 100 peer-reviewed articles and reports.[3]
