Activity summary

I am graduated in Marine Biology, have a PhD in Marine Sciences and an MSc degree in Science Communication. I am an Assistant Researcher (CEEC 2017) and my main scientific research topics have focused on the study of the population structure of marine fishes and in the determination of life-history population parameters, particularly fish reproductive strategies. I have been also involved in science communication initiatives co-coordinating MARE’s-UL educative program “MARE goes to school”.
