In 1999, she began a doctorate thesis (Laboratory of Oceanology, ULiège), in which she developed more deeply her graduate degree dissertation: the contamination of sea mammals by trace elements. This thesis was funded by the FRIA (Funds for Industry and Agriculture research). In 2003 and 2004 she took part in the Marie-Curie Fellowship Programme helping young researchers’ mobility and carried out a post-doctoral study at the University of Kiel. From December 2004 onwards she was a FNRS post-doc fellow focusing on the toxicity of pollutants on the expression of several biomarkers in marine mammals at the Oceanology Laboratory at the University of Liège. Since the 1st of October, 2008, Krishna Das is the holder of a permanent Research Associate mandate at the FRS-FNRS (Funds for Scientific Research). She has been recently promoted as Senior Research Associate and Associate Professor at the University of Liège.
