Biography
Dr Julie Mondon studied a B.Sc. in Zoology/Botany, followed by a BSc.Honours in Marine Ecology, a MA degree in Science and Technology Studies and PhD in Aquatic Ecotoxicology. For the past 20 years her research interests have related to multidisciplinary research associated with indicators of ecological health and risk assessment. Dr Mondon's publication record represents her special interest in ecotoxicological risk assessment and biomarkers of human impact and toxicological effects of non-metal, metals and organics contaminants exposure to marine organisms and habitats. Her research applies to coastal marine ecosystems from tropical regions through to the Antarctic.
