Former PhD student at the University of Exeter, hosted by PML. PhD focused on the population dynamics of marine copepods in UK shelf environments, primarily at station L4, and how physical and trophic parameters influence the vertical distribution and seasonality of the copepod species Oithona similis.

Current project: FAMRI Faroe Islands Plankton Analysis
