With more than 80 peer review papers and 20 international research projects, it is also remarkable our participation in scientific advising organisms of fisheries management, e.g., we were involved in the creation of the NAFO Working Group on Reproductive Potential

Teaching

In addition to research work, the group actively participates in several educational activities, including doctoral courses, graduate and master training programs

Lab resources

The group has a complete laboratory (histology, age reading, image analysis) that allows us to develop our work in a independent way. Besides, the technical staff team is comprised by 4 specialist that autonomously managing all laboratory work required by the researchers
