Mutualisms are fundamental ecological interactions that underpin much of the world’s biodiversity. Recent studies have demonstrated how external pressures, such as predation, can regulate the dynamics of interspecific interactions and cause the break...

Genomic signatures of local adaptation to the degree of environmental predictability in rotifers (2018)
Journal Article
Franch-Gras, L., Hahn, C., García-Roger, E. M., Carmona, M. J., Serra, M., & Gómez, A. (2018). Genomic signatures of local adaptation to the degree of environmental predictability in rotifers. Scientific reports, 8(1), Article 16051. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-34188-y

Environmental fuctuations are ubiquitous and thus essential for the study of adaptation. Despite
this, genome evolution in response to environmental fuctuations —and more specifcally to the
degree of environmental predictability– is still unknown. Sa... Read More about Genomic signatures of local adaptation to the degree of environmental predictability in rotifers.

Fisheries are an important resource in Zambia, but are experiencing overexploitation and are under increasing pressure from external development activities that are compromising river ecosystem services and functioning. One such system is the Kafue F... Read More about Optimising hydropower development and ecosystem services in the Kafue River, Zambia.

The Student Thesis Conference as a model for authentic and inclusive student research dissemination (2018)
Journal Article

Engaging in a final year project is required in most undergraduate degree programmes. However, the student research experience often differs from the academic experience due to a lack of opportunities for research dissemination. We present the Studen...
