My research stay at @biologiaub.bsky.social is over and I could not be more satisfied and grateful for these 5 months.
Thanks to the great mentorship of @danigomezgras.bsky.social and @cristinalinares.bsky.social, and the warm welcome of @medrecover.bsky.social's team.
Fins a la pròxima, Barna!

Snaps from last week's Ramon Margalef Colloquia at @icmcsic.bsky.social on fundamentals of #ecology for #conservation and #restoration of #marine ecosystems.
A break from coralligenous-centered readings to broaden my view, learn new concepts/approaches & engage in interesting debates with peers!

It's going to require quite a lot of work before we will be able to share the output, until then "fins aviat!"

Personal update: I'm very happy that life gave me a second chance with Barcelona (I was living here when the pandemic hit and in the end I came back to Italy during lockdown)
