Maria Cristina Fossi is a Staff Member of the Department of Environmental Biology of Siena University. She graduated with a Ph.D. in Environmental Science from Genoa University and has carried on postdoctoral research in the Department of Environmental Biology of Siena University on the fate, bioaccumulation, and biological effects of xenobiotic compounds in the Mediterranean. Since 1981, she has worked on biochemical adaptation to polluted environments by pollution-tolerant species, toxicological effects of xenobiotics on sea-bird populations, the use of biochemical and metabolic biomarkers (MFO, esterases, porphyrins) for the evaluation of environmental pollution and MFO detoxication activity in Antarctic organisms. Her recent research has been concerned with the development of a methodological approach for the assessment of toxicological risk by means of nondestructive biomarkers in endangered vertebrate species. Dr. Fossi is author of more than 90 articles in the scientific literature. She is on the editorial board of the international journal of Ecotoxicology and a member of the European Science Foundation Group for Biological Impact Assessment. She is a member of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), the European Society for Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (ESCPB), the Italian Society of Ecology (SITE), and the Italian Society of Marine Biology (SIBM). Claudio Leonzio is a Senior Research Assistant in the Department of Environmental Biology of Siena University. Since 1976, he has worked on the distribution of heavy metals and organochlorine compounds in the Mediterranean marine environment and on the dynamic accumulation of mercury in the trophic chain in relation to local geochemical anomalies, in particular. These studies were extended to birds in long-term monitoring studies of populations of marine species, based on residue analysis and biomarkers, especially monooxygenases. He has
