Our Services
1
Scientific Writting
Members of our team have contributed many peer-reviewed manuscripts and other scientific publications. We provide valuable insights and can assist in various scientific writings such as grant proposals, peer-reviewed articles, technical reports, meta-analysis, and literature reviews.
2
Strategy
We provide guidance to corner the most efficient strategy to optimize your operations. Whether it be resource management, sampling activities, husbandry, laboratory procedures, budget building, grant applications, publication or analytical approach, we will find the best way to tackle it.
3
Design
We are experienced in science based designing of experiments, statistical models, and aquaculture engineering systems. Tell us about your ideas and needs and let's build it together.
4
Transportation Logistics
We are accustomed to the regulatory frameworks regarding transportation licenses, shipping and importation permits for biological material, preserved, sampled or alive. We will guide you to make sure your goods get in or out in the most efficient and simple way possible.
Projects
Transportation Logistics
Our team has recently orchestrated local, national and international inter-institutional transportations of live and frozen specimens, and tissue samples of different fish species for research purposes.
Strategy
Together with fish producers, we have strategized 1) feeding protocols, 2) photoperiod control, 3) water quality improvement and monitoring, 4) biomass measurements and sampling procedures, 5) cryopreservation, and 6) breeding strategies to optimize management and production.
Redaction
We have contributed to literature reviews for fish species threatened or at risk, and reports to identify key production strategies to increase production of farmed arctic charr in Eastern Quebec
Design
We have assisted in the making of and modification of multiple custom made experimental aquaculture system components: egg incubators, recirculating systems, biofilters.
Meet the Team
Nathalie R. Le François (PhD)
Nathalie is an oceanographer who specializes in fish ecophysiology (exploited, cultivated or threatened), conservation aquaculture (macroalgae, invertebrates, fish) and commercial aquaculture, as well as recirculation technology (RAS) and bioengineering. She co-authored a book on aquaculture diversification, has authored several scientific publications (65+) and planned and completed many scientific experiments. Her strength lies in her broad scientific vision for the development of innovative solutions tailored and applicable to the industry
Charles Drouin-Johnson (MSc)
Charles has more than 8 years of experience as a research professional and project manager. His expertise is in aquaculture science and engineering, aquatic organisms' physiology (fish, invertebrates, algae) and biostatistics. He has contributed to several scientific publications for which he was in charge of data (collecting, curating, visualizing and statistical analyses). He has coordinated and led many grant applications. He is accustomed to the rigorous nature of every steps of project management and scientific experiments. His strength stems from his critical-thinking ability and leadership qualities.
Jean-Christophe Boussin, O.C.Q. (MSc)
Member of the Order of Chemists, Jean-Christophe is an environmental and water treatment chemist specializing in the analysis and physico-chemical characteristics of natural and recomposed waters, treatment and purification processes as well as aquatic life support systems. He has participated in the development and adaptation of various water treatment systems that support aquatic life and contributed to various scientific publications.
David Desjardins-Lemire (BSc)
David has a multidisciplinary background in administration, communication, and history, giving him a global strategic vision of organizations. With seven years of expertise in economic development, acquired both in academia and within a regional county municipality, he has mastered the levers of growth and innovation ecosystems in Quebec. An entrepreneur for 13 years in the agri-food and green technology sectors, he specializes in business model deployment and project structuring. His strength lies in his ability to transform technical innovations into concrete market opportunities and in his leadership focused on commercial viability.
