Short presentation
Lecturer in Invertebrate Palaeobiology within the Palaeobiology Programme at the Department of Earth Sciences. Responsible of the electron microscope.
Research interests
Cambrian organophosphatic brachiopods and small shelly fossils, with emphasis on their phylogeny, paleogeographic distribution, and functional morphology.
Taxonomy and phylogeny of calcareous dinoflagellate cysts and their potential in the reconstruction of past environmental conditions.
