I am a PhD Student at the Marine Biological Association and The University of Plymouth. My research involves the development of techniques to ‘futureproof’ kelp restoration and look into the impact this may have on UK marine biodiversity. My previous research as a masters student and Research Technician at the MBA focused on the thermal … Read more
I specialise in evolutionary developmental biology (Evo-Devo), focusing on early life stages of marine invertebrates. I combine techniques from the fields of molecular biology and bioinformatics to create new theories and approve/disprove existing assumptions regarding the evolutionary history and relationships of various animals. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Marine Biology from Universiti Malaysia … Read more
I am a PhD student at the University of Southampton, currently working in Dan Smale’s research group. My research focuses on the diversity stability theory, specifically investigating how marine communities respond to disturbances such as Marine heatwaves (MHWs) and the role of community diversity driving these responses.Using existing biological and environmental data on rocky subtidal … Read more
I am a graduate in Marine Biology, working at the MBA as a Plankton Analyst identifying taxa in both net-caught and Continuous Plankton Recorder samples. I’m passionate about taxonomy, particularly in less charismatic, understudied invertebrate and protist groups. I have research experience in groups such as the Foraminifera, Polychaeta and Amphipoda, with interest in a … Read more
