Tiago Repolho is a
researcher at the Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa (FCUL,
Portugal) and Centro de Ciências do Mar e do Ambiente (MARE, Portugal). He
completed his BSc in Biology (2001) at the Universidade de Aveiro (2001),
obtained an MSc in Biology and Marine Resources Management (2007) at FCUL and a
PhD in Marine Biology and Aquaculture (2012) at the same institution. 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 Sciences,
specifically Marine Aquaculture and Global Change Biology, are areas of great
interest to him. He aims to advance echinoculture research to tackle key
challenges addressing the environmental impact, nutrition and the effects of
climate change. His approach involves developing solutions and implementing
innovative, eco-friendly, and emerging technologies/methodologies through an
interdisciplinary framework, which includes aquaponics, computer vision,
analytical biochemistry, machine learning, digestive physiology and eDNA
metabarcoding. 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
51 international peer-reviewed papers (H-index: 23; Citations: 1504; 2006-2023,
Source: Scopus) and has performed 62 oral and 55 poster communications at
national and international meetings. Currently, Tiago supervises 1 PhD and 3
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 to science
outreach, with 50 school-oriented activities performed (since 2012).
