Michèle de Saint Laurent
Michèle de Saint Laurent (December 9, 1926 – July 11, 2003) was a French carcinologist. She spent most of her career at the ''フランス語:Muséum national d'histoire naturelle'' in Paris, working on the systematics of decapod crustaceans; her major contributions were to hermit crabs and Thalassinidea, and she also co-described ''Neoglyphea'', a living fossil discovered in 1975.
==Biography==
Michèle de Saint Laurent was born on December 9, 1926 at Fontainebleau, near Paris.〔Obituary by Jacques Forest, originally published in French as Forest (2004a), and later published in translation by Gary C. B. Poore as Forest (2004b).〕 Her father, an army officer, retired on grounds of ill health in 1938 and moved with his family to Plestin-les-Grèves in Brittany; he died in 1939. During the Second World War, Michèle's mother concealed British airmen from the Nazi regime, for which she was convicted in 1942 by a military tribunal and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp, where she died in 1944.〔
Michèle married in 1950, taking the name Michèle Dechancé, and her daughter Odile was born later that year.〔 She studied general biology at the University of Paris under Pierre-Paul Grassé, earning her ''フランス語:Diplôme de Licence'' in 1954.〔 She started undertaking scientific research even before finishing her degree, during a term spent at the ''フランス語:Institut Pasteur'' under Robert Deschiens, where she investigated the effect of iron salts on the molluscs that transmit schistosomiasis (also known as ''bilharzia'' or ''snail fever'').〔 The resulting paper brought her into contact with staff at the ''フランス語:Muséum national d'histoire naturelle'' in Paris, where Jacques Forest suggested she study the larvae of hermit crabs.〔 From 1955 until 1960, she worked at the ''フランス語:Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique'' (CNRS), at their laboratory at Banyuls-sur-Mer; thereafter, she returned to the Paris museum.〔
In 1965, Michèle divorced, and returned to using her maiden name. She retired on October 1, 1992, and split her time between her continued research activities and spending time at a house in Brittany. She had suffered for years from hepatitis C and contracted liver cancer in 2001; she died following a fall on July 11, 2003.〔
