PORTRAIT : STEPHANIE ORTENGO, VETERINARY MANAGER
A little girl's dream
“My initial goal was to be a veterinarian, developing new treatments/medical tools for marine animals.
For this, my BTS allowed me to learn the largest panel of laboratory analysis so I went for it!
I then had to work in a laboratory after my degree before continuing my studies and no longer having the courage to go back to long studies, I opted for my master’s degree which brought me closer to marine animals.”
TAKING CARE OF OUR RESIDENTS
“To my amazement, things happened naturally within the Museum so that my daily life was dedicated to analyses allowing the monitoring of water parameters but also more recently to the monitoring of the health of our boarders by integrating veterinary care.”
my training
- Scientific baccalaureate
- BTS biochemist

a profession in constant evolution
“I have recently been able to develop new tools such as antibiograms and analysis of bacteria found in the blood of sick animals and I hope to have the chance to continue on this path.”
