Conand obtained her PhD in biological oceanography at University of Western Brittany in Brest in 1988. Her thesis focused on Aspidochirotida of the New Caledonia Barrier Reef ({{langx|fr|Les Holothuries aspidochirotes du lagon de Nouvelle-Calédonie}}).{{Cite web|url=http://catalogue.bnf.fr/servlet/RechercheEquation;jsessionid=D7174ED04E7F12AC78DC69D8C87FE959?TexteCollection=HGARSTUVWXYZ1DIECBMJNQLOKP&TexteTypeDoc=DESNFPIBTMCJOV&Equation=IDP%3Dcb12120417v&host=catalogue|title=Notice}} In January 1993, she joined the marine ecology laboratory (ECOMAR) at the University of La Réunion and eventually became its chief scientist.{{Cite web|first1=Julius|last1=Francis|url=http://www.wiomsa.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=Cite\journal&id=237&Itemid=254 |title=Prof Chantal Conand |editor=Western Indian Ocean Marine Sciences Association }}. Her expertise extends to all echinoderms of the Indo-Pacific, but her work has focused on sea cucumbers,{{Cite journal |url=http://www.spc.int/DigitalLibrary/Doc/FAME/InfoBull/BDM/30/BDM30x_55_Conand.pdf |title=Publications on sea cucumbers by Chantal Conand|author1=Chantal Conand|journal=SPC Beche-de-mer Information Bulletin|issue=30|date=February 2010|pages=55–58}}. but also on other echinoderms of la Réunion.{{Cite journal|last1=Conand|first1=Chantal|last2=Ribes-Beaudemoulin|first2=Sonia|author-link2=Sonia Ribes-Beaudemoulin |last3=Trentin|first3=Florence|last4=Mulochau|first4=Thierry|last5=Boissin|first5=Emilie|date=2018-09-01|title=Marine Biodiversity of La Reunion Island: Echinoderms|url=https://www.ajol.info/index.php/wiojms/article/view/173993|journal=Western Indian Ocean Journal of Marine Science|language=en|volume=17|issue=1|pages=111–124|s2cid=56317211|issn=0856-860X}} Her other work has included studies of the crown-of-thorns starfish, which preys upon hard, or stony, coral polyps (Scleractinia). She was a member of the scientific committee of the Western Indian Ocean Marine Science Association from 2001 to 2004. She has since retired and become emeritus faculty.{{Cite web|url=http://sciences.univ-reunion.fr/laboratoires/ecomar/equipement/|title=Membres|access-date=2014-03-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140707032046/http://sciences.univ-reunion.fr/laboratoires/ecomar/equipement|archive-date=2014-07-07|url-status=dead}}

Her works include more than thirty books or book chapters and over 100 peer-reviewed articles and reports.
