My first PhD paper is out in @molecology !! How can we fuel shark conservation? Interdisciplinary approaches combining population genomics and movement ecology offer a solution. doi.org/10.1111/mec.70611
Linking Population Genomics and Movement Ecology for Shark Conservation

Linking Population Genomics and Movement Ecology for Shark Conservation

Climate change and overexploitation are increasingly threatening sharks, with pelagic species among the most affected. The complex ecology and life histories of these species, however, pose major...
