Tiago Repolho is a researcher at the Centro de Ciências do Mar e do Ambiente (MARE, Portugal) and Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa (FCUL, Portugal), where he has also lectured since 2019 (BSc in Biology, MSc in Marine Ecology, MSc in Marine Sciences). He completed his BSc in Biology (Universidade de Aveiro, 2001), obtained an MSc in Biology and Marine Resources Management (Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade de Lisboa, 2007) and a PhD in Marine Biology and Aquaculture, at the same institution (2012). After completing his FCT-funded PhD (2012), he pursued an FCT-funded postdoc, exploring the adaptive potential of marine biota to environmental drivers of ocean warming, ocean acidification and deoxygenation/hypoxia. Marine Aquaculture and Global Change Biology, are areas of great interest to him. While aiming to advance echinoculture research by addressing key challenges related to sea urchin nutrition and farming, he also entails to develop innovative, eco-friendly and emerging technologies/methodologies to mitigate environmental impacts (e.g. marine resources sustainability, aquaculture-induced pollution) and the effects of climate change (ocean warming and acidification) on sea urchin aquaculture. His research entails an interdisciplinary approach, combining aquaponics, analytical biochemistry, AI-based technologies, digestive physiology, metabarcoding and -omics techniques. Tiago has acted as PI (n=4), Co-PI (n=2), PhD (n=14) or BSc/MSc fellow (n=6) team member in 25 national/international R&D&I-funded projects. These projects have received funding from various sources (e.g. EU 5th FP- EC Research, technological development and demonstration activities, EU Maritime and Fisheries Fund, EU Regional Development Fund, FCT). He has published 52 international peer-reviewed papers (H-index: 24; Citations: 1583; 2006-2025, Source: Scopus) and has performed 62 oral and 57 poster communications at national and international meetings. Currently, Tiago supervises 1 PhD and 5 MSc students (supervised 2 Postdocs, 3 MSc students, 6 MSc research scholars, 5 Erasmus+ interns, since 2016), performs advanced course training for PhD students, and experimental tutoring to MSc and PhD students. He is a member of the Frontiers in Marine Science editorial board, the Society for Open, Reliable, Transparent Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (since 2021), and the Global Ocean Acidification Network (since 2018). Additionally, he acts as evaluator and rapporteur to prestigious national (e.g. Portuguese Innovation Agency, since 2019) and international funding agencies (e.g. EU REA; US NSF; and the Dutch Research Council, since 2016), besides reviewing for international publishers (since 2011). His commitment is also linked to science outreach, with more than 50 school-oriented activities performed (since 2012).
