Research team focused on studying the genetic adaptability of marine invertebrates in natural gradients analog to the oceans of the future. https://echinoadaptive.wixsite.com/adaptive-team
Congratulations to Vanessa Arranz for her participation in the 14th international temperate reef symposium (ITRS25) in Brest, France.
An impressive talk about: Strategies of echinoderms in response to ocean acidification. An “omics” approach from a natural laboratory.
Good job💪🏼⭐️
🌍 Wide distribution: Lives on rocky and sandy substrates from intertidal zones down to 100 m depth, spanning the Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic.

Introducing Coscinasterias tenuispina — a fascinating multi-armed starfish from the Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic 🌊
💪🏼 Variable arm number: this species typically has 6 to 9 arms, a trait linked to its mode of asexual reproduction.
Yesterday, our PhD student Marta Martín Huete took part in @pintofscience.es in Reus, sharing her research on chromosomal inversions!
A fantastic opportunity to bring science closer to everyone!🙌🏼

Today we launched our weekly team seminar series! First up was Vanessa Arranz with ‘Starting Guide for Bioinformatic Pipelines – Microbiome Case’.
Great insights and discussions to start the series strong!🙌🏼💡
Hi!
We’re the Adaptive Team — an interdisciplinary research group from the @ub.edu and the @ull.es, led by Rocío Pérez Portela (@perez-portela.bsky.social) and José Carlos Hernández.
We’re so excited to join Bluesky!
Follow us to stay updated on our latest work and discoveries! 🌊🧬
