Between Noon and Science Season 24 25

As part of the “Entre Midi & Science” series, the Eurêka Center for Science Culture invites you to join a discussion with Marine Souchier, a research engineer at the USMB’s Alpine Research Center on Trophic Networks and Limnic Ecosystems (CARRTEL), on the topic “Mountain Lakes: What Challenges Lie Behind the Postcard Image?”, on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 12:30 p.m., at 150 rue de la République, Carré Curial, in Chambéry.

About the meeting

Recognized for their cultural and environmental value, high-altitude lakes are ecosystems that are as fascinating as they are fragile. While these places are often a destination for hikers, recent research now invites us to take a fresh scientific look at these exceptional environments. How do they form and function? Which species call them home? Finally, in the face of growing pressures amid global warming, what does the future hold for these environments?
