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💪🏼⭐️

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!🙌🏼
