Subject Area
Biological Oceanography, Marine Ecology
Activities
My main research goal is to use marine
organisms, especially meiofauna and macrofauna in soft sediments, as adaptive-biological models within the
interdisciplinary perspectives of zoology, oceanography and ecology. Our team try to show how the integrated use of different methodologies, as morphology,
genetics and ecological biomarkers
could allow researchers to improve our knowledge on  biodiversity, to
answer interesting questions, and to have a better understanding of the general
rules governing the small animals, especially in marine ecosystems.
Skills
As a professor of Statistics I also using open access platforms, as R, and have a substantial understand of several types of analyses,
including both uni-  and multivariate,
generalized and additive linear mixed models, model selection, and partitioned
beta diversity. As a researcher I'm a beach goer and passionate to study the inhabitats of this environmental. I performed time-lapse microscopic video-recording, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, histology, immunohistochemistry, multi-staning protocols, confocal laser scanning microscope, 3D computational modeling and DNA sequencing.

Comment(s)
During my doctoral and postdoctoral fellowships, I participated in scientific expeditions throughout the Arctic, several Atlantic and Pacific islands, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, and both the Baltic and North Seas, collaborating, collecting, and identifying meiofauna with experts from several countries with special enthusiasm towards the taxonomy of annelids.
