Since late 2023, I am leader of the Research group "Freshwater and Invasive Ecology" at cE3c (University of Lisbon, Portugal). As a Junior Researcher, I am PI of the project "EDGES - Temperature and nutrient interactions in aquatic ectotherms: individuals, populations and communities at latitudinal edges" and Co-PI of the project NET-REWIRING "Food web rewiring under climate warming: integrating life history traits with topological network characteristics". These projects bring together large international teams of expert researchers seeking to understand the impact of climate change on freshwater species and habitats, studying the mechanisms governing the ecological responses of ectotherms to warming and how they affect species interactions and reverberate through aquatic food webs. Targeting valuable ecosystems with highly biodiversity, such as Mediterranean temporary ponds and intermittent streams, this research harnesses public interest, informing on the vulnerability of freshwaters and raising awareness to the need of protective legislation and conservations actions.
