Autor

Jean-Pierre Cuif is a Professor in the Department of Geology at the Université de Paris-Sud II, Orsay, France. Since 1980 his research team has developed a specialized approach to the mineralized units that built the calcareous skeletons of invertebrates through Earth history. In addition to basic research on distribution and composition of the organic compounds associated with the mineral phase, this approach has led to the participation of the team in multiple programs dealing with biomineralization in economically important molluscs.
