SCIENTIFIC AND SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILES
POSITION DESCRIPTION
My scientific interests and research activity of my team focus on:
- Spatio-temporal patterns of evolution in the aquatic ecosystems, host-parasite co-evolution in aquatic taxa.
- Biological invasions in aquatic ecosystems: invasion routes and vectors, ecology of invaders, interactions with native communities, mediation by pathogens.
- DNA barcoding as a tool for surveying aquatic biodiversity. Integrative taxonomy of malacostracan crustaceans.
Our usual model organisms are amphipods, shrimps and isopods, chironomid flies and microsporidian pathogens.
And last but not least: we have fun doing science together!
