Bio
I am a micropaleontologist and my research covers different aspects of paleoceanography and paleoclimate. In 2018, I joined the Environmental Science Department at СÀ¶ÊÓƵ as director of the teaching laboratories. This new activity led me to develop interest on pressing threats to fresh and marine water systems such as microplastic pollution.
