Simão Correia concluded his MSc degree in Applied Biology in 2019 at the University of Aveiro and is currently a PhD student in collaboration between CESAM (Portugal), CIIMAR (Portugal), USC (Spain) and UO (New Zealand). His main areas of interest are the behavioural and evolutionary ecological processes involved in host-parasite interactions, namely bivalves with high economic and ecological importance and their parasites. Simão participated in 2 research projects, published 8 ISI & Scopus papers and presented 4 oral communications and 4 posters in international conferences. Keywords: Marine Biology, Marine Ecology, Ethology, Bivalves, Diseases, Parasites.
