Thanks to our great speakers in the session of Sex-specific biology @sebiology.bsky.social And congrats to our ECR for their presentations on #thermal #physiology - Joana, Bianca and Madalena! 💪 We had a great time in #Florence! #SEBConference
Huge congrats on this milestone Dr Joana Fernandes @joanaff.bsky.social ! I am really proud of you and the hard work you did over the past 4 years! Impressive thesis! Much success in the future, you really deserve it 🥳👏
Extremely proud of this work, led by #PhD student @joanaff.bsky.social ! Sex matters under #ocean #warming 🌊 In amphipods, females outperform males in heat tolerance & metabolic plasticity. Warming may skew sex ratios toward females. New in @globalchangebio.bsky.social🌍 doi.org/10.1111/gcb....

Big thanks to the two opponents Trish @trishschulte.bsky.social and Diana @dianasmadeira.bsky.social, and committee chair @rijacobsen.bsky.social! Thanks for making this a fantastic day full of excellent scientific discussion!
Great few days and great discussions on thermal physiology! Thank you ! 🐟🌊
New paper! We show that in situ responses of the common goby to #seasonal change vary even across small-scale #latitudinal gradients. Southern #populations exhibit higher vulnerability than their northern counterparts, a pattern driven by reduced metabolic plasticity and increased #cellular damage.
Invited speaker for @sebiology.bsky.social 2026 – Session A7: The Battle of Sexes Welcome Dr Elena Gissi — Senior Scientist at CNR_ISMAR & Co-Director of Gendered Innovations Project at Stanford University 🌍 More info: shorturl.at/6jJei #SEB2026 @pierocalosi.bsky.social
Excited to announce Session A7 – The Battle of #Sexes: Comparative #Biology of #Females and #Males at the @sebiology.bsky.social Annual Conference 2026, co-organized with @pierocalosi.bsky.social Join us to explore sex-specific biology across systems! #SEB2026 #ComparativeBiology #SexDifferences
New paper! Northern shrimp, a cornerstone of global shellfish fisheries, show strong origin-specific proteomic responses to ocean acidification, but not warming, across Atlantic Canada, emphasizing the need for locally informed stock management. doi.org/10.1016/j.ma... @pierocalosi.bsky.social
New paper! Climate change is intensifying #temperature and #salinity shifts. While shallow-water #shrimp tolerate wide salinity ranges, extreme heat increases mortality. Sex-specific biochemical performances further reveal trade-offs linked to reproductive investment. 🦐🌡️ doi.org/10.1016/j.ma...
Oxygen limitation is considered a key mechanism of #ThermalTolerance. @dianasmadeira.bsky.social explores how a @plosbiology.org study challenges this idea, showing minimal protective effects of O2 supersaturation in heat-stressed #aquatic #ectotherms 🧪 Paper: plos.io/43hzMQa Primer: plos.io/3XeUtbS
New paper led by #PhD student André Cuenca! To cope with low #oxygen, annelids display a compensatory accumulation of respiratory enzymes to keep #energy production. Check it out 👇 doi.org/10.1016/j.en... @pierocalosi.bsky.social
Our research centre is #hiring a #postdoctoral fellow within the project : Early detection of #bivalve disease outbreaks towards mitigation of stocks decline🌊 PI: Luísa Magalhães www.cesam-la.pt/luisamagalha... More details about the #JobAlert 👇 euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/356314
Our latest study, led by Fanny Vermandele, reveals that what parents experience in the #ocean —like #marine #heatwaves and #hypoxia —can leave lasting, sex-specific effects on their offspring, even if those offspring grow up in normal conditions. 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.ma...
New #paper, in collaboration with UQAR, shows that the Northern #shrimp displays striking location-specific #phospholipidome responses to warming & acidification across the Northwest #Atlantic @pierocalosi.bsky.social @joanaff.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.en...
Our little shell'ebrities! 😂 We are proud moms @mmissionario.bsky.social and @baparodi.bsky.social !🦐🌊 #shrimp #biology
Our chapter on #climate change is finally out! This is a #collaborative work involving researchers from institutions in France, Portugal, Spain, USA and Sweden! 👉https://shorturl.at/6SJa6 @noellelucey.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social @inrae-france.bsky.social #ocean #biodiversity
Our PhD student Joana Fernandes was part of a team that published a correspondence in Nat. Human Behav. proposing a #guideline for academic #institutions to better welcome #ECRs from different cultures and #countries! 💪 @naturehumbehav.bsky.social @euromarine.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social
This Correspondence proposes a guideline for academic institutions to better support international Early Career Researchers (ECRs) adapting to a new environment. @m-lopezacosta.bsky.social @odeigg.bsky.social @cgalobart.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Ten months after we closed our #Research Topic, I am proud of its scientific impact and reach. 21 manuscripts submitted, 10 accepted, 26.5k views. @uqar.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social @pierocalosi.bsky.social #omics #ocean #data
New position available at our research centre, within project "DMi4Shrimp – #Diatom derived #Microencapsulation devices for #Shrimp #Aquaculture", led by Dr Anthony Moreira. See more at euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/316830 #job #sciencejobs #biology #academiajobs #biotechnology @uaveiro.bsky.social
Go girls @baparodi.bsky.social and @mmissionario.bsky.social 💪 Awesome job with our shrimpies! #ocean #shrimps #physiology @uaveiro.bsky.social
Kicking off the next phase of my PhD! 🚀 These past two weeks have been intense, lots of hard work, but also lots of fun. Grateful to everyone who’s been supporting me along the way. Excited for what’s ahead! 🔬🦐🌊 @baparodi.bsky.social
Our new system for breeding #shrimps! #PhD students Madalena & Bianca will have plenty of entertainment 😁🦐 #ocean #Research #physiology @uaveiro.bsky.social
Congrats Dr Fanny Vermandele ! 🎉Your hard work, persistence and kindness represent what a #PhD journey should be like! As a supervisor, I could not be prouder; as a fellow human being, I am delighted we could share this journey together! @Piero_Calosi @uqar.bsky.social @uaveiro.bsky.social
Yesterday, our student Bianca Parodi presented her work on "Interpopulation variation in thermal tolerance traits of an intertidal fish" 🐠🌊🌡️ part of the ExtremeOceans project, funded by FCT (sites.fct.unl.pt/seatox/pages...)
