Training is, of course, the courses offered at the University (L, M, D) but also training through research (internships).
The dissemination of our scientific results is at the heart of our mission: it enables us to share and make research advances accessible to a wider audience. In addition to publications in specialist journals, the IMBE deploys a wide range of resources to popularise knowledge and make it understandable and attractive to a wide range of audiences. Through concrete actions and innovative tools, we are committed to bringing science closer to everyone, in order to establish an ongoing dialogue between science, research and the general public, especially young people.
With a view to finding alternative solutions to plant protection products, my thesis looks at the effectiveness of releasing natural enemies to control apple aphids in orchards equipped with Alt Carpo netting. This subject is approached on several scales, ranging from the study of the behaviour of natural enemies in laboratories to releases under real conditions in growers' orchards.
