With a doctorate in biological sciences, I specialise in biodiversity, particularly in relation to wetlands (inventories, conservation strategies, mapping, fauna and flora, etc.). During 44 years at Mohammed V University in Rabat, I have taught zoology, ecology, biodiversity and sustainable development, and directed more than 120 research projects in various fields. My ability to evaluate research in biodiversity knowledge and conservation is justified by my scientific outcomes, which exceeds 290 written works, including a dozen books and some 150 international papers. These skills are reinforced by a non-neglected knowledge of statistical methods and informatics, and my experience in research management and nature conservation projects. Alongside this academic research, I undertook more than 30 ESIA, mainly for Renewable Enegry projects. In parallel, I have been in charge of Edititing the Scientific journals of the Scientific Institute of Rabat.
