A new project led by Damien BANAS: PNR EST Botulism

Published on 17/06/2026

The PNR EST Botulism project builds on the CHABOTÉ research into the hydro-ecological conditions associated with the emergence of botulism and the occurrence of toxins in ponds. It aims to improve our understanding of the environmental, hydro-ecological, bacteriological and ornithological conditions that may favour the emergence of outbreaks of avian botulism in French lentic ecosystems.
