Marine calcifiers

The Mediterranean is warming fast & future acidification may threaten bryozoans. Using a natural CO₂ vent, our @CommsBio study shows species-specific skeletal shifts, microbiome changes & long-term vulnerability. New animation out now 👇 #MedCalRes youtu.be/RuOxO0kH2oQ?si…

#BiodIBErsityDay2026 🗣️Great talks by Blanca Figuerola, from @ICMCSIC, and Arnaud Estoup, from @INRAE_France.

Really happy that I can finally attend the Larwood meeting again! Looking forward to reconnecting with many bryozoologist colleagues, some I haven’t seen in a long time, and to listening to the talks in such an interesting program! 🤗🪸 #Bryozoa bryozoology.org/kopie-von-20th…

Vine a la @SetmanaNatura a l’@ICMCSIC! #FuturViu Els plàstics que arriben al mar no només contaminen: també poden ajudar algunes espècies marines a desplaçar-se i colonitzar nous llocs. Vols descobrir quins organismes poden viatjar sobre els plàstics marins? Inscripcions aquí👇

We were so happy to welcome sponge taxonomists Javier Cristobo and Pilar Ríos from @IEO_GIJON to @ICMCSIC! We had the chance to show them our experiment and share our work. We also met their colleague, Florencio González. Such a great visit! #biodiversity #taxonomy

Farewell, Emmanouela! 💙 We couldn’t dive, but we still had such a great time together 😊 It was really nice having you with us. We’ll miss you! Good luck with your Master’s thesis and enjoy the journey ahead 🌍✨

Happy to be joining the #BiodIBErsityDay2026. Looking forward to sharing ideas and learning from researchers working on biodiversity, ecology, evolution, and conservation.

Avui hem estat de mostreig al port per l'experiment en aquaris i per una col•laboració. Tot un èxit gràcies a aquest gran equip 👏 #HOLOCHANGE #MedCalRes

This week I am attending the Antarctic marine species traits workshop organized by @BiodiversityAQ, @SCAR_Tweets Antarctic Biodiversity Informatics, SCARfish & @WRMarineSpecies. With other taxonomists from #RAMS, we plan to integrate trait data & update priority trait lists.

Exciting news! Chapter 4 of Tomás’ thesis is published in Marine Environmental Research! Ocean warming and acidification may reduce the nutritional value of Antarctic seaweed Monostroma hariotii by altering its biochemical profile. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Primera calçotada de l’Emmanouela i despedida del Tomás. Gran dia a Vilanova i la Geltrú amb el millor equip, calçots i bona companyia. Hi tornarem! 🔥🌞

Big day yesterday!🎉 Tomás successfully defended his thesis! Congrats Dr. Azcárate! So proud of all the hard work and wishing you the best for what’s next. Bonus: it was also Gabriel’s birthday the same day🎂 Huge thanks for the support from Severo Ochoa FPI! #ProudSupervisors
