Stress Ecology
- We study the response of organisms to natural and anthropogenic stresses, focusing on evolutionary aspects, responses to combined stresses, and physiological-ecological mechanisms.

- Ecological and physiological endpoints in ecotoxicological research (damselflies, Daphnia)
- Evolutionary ecotoxicology
- Genetic bottlenecks following contaminant exposure
- Physiological ecology and life histories in response to time stress
- Physiological ecology of salinity stress
- Exposure to combined stressors (predation, parasitism, abiotic stresses)
