Tara Ocean expeditions–exploring the oceans

Flora Vincent, marine biologist at the Weizmann Institute will bethe guest of our 4th “Café des sciences”, an event organized by the French Institute of Israel. Flora is fascinated by marine microbes, the invisible majority that populates our oceans and plays a key role in our ecosystem, by producing oxygen, recycling carbon dioxide, and serving as the basis of the marine food chain. Her research has led her to board on the Tara schooner. During this event, Flora will present the activities of the Tara Ocean Foundation, as well as her experience as a scientist throughout the several missions she took part in.

With the participation of François Aurat, sailor on the Tara schooner
