He was Associate Professor at “Ovidius” University, Constant ¸a (1993–1996).
Since 1992, he is Scientific Researcher I, responsible redactor of the journal
Cerceta ˘ri marine – Recherches marines (since 1990), a member in the redaction
committees of the journals Noesis (Romanian Academy) and Ocean Yearbook
(International Oceanic Institute). Currently he is Scientific Director of the Romanian Institute of Marine Research (IRCM)/Grigore Antipa National Institute for
Marine Research-Development (INCDM), since 1990. His research concerned
macrobenthic marine algae, the estimation of the primary plankton production with
14 C method, the surveillance of natural and artificial radioactivity in abiotic and
biotic components of the marine environment, experiments in marine radioecology
field (transfer coefficients, factors of concentration), studies of science history.
