Activity summary

Tiago F. Grilo is currently a junior researcher at FCUL (33 peer reviewed papers, >530 citations, h-index=13. He investigates the single and combined impacts of global climate change drivers (i.e. temperature and CO2 ) and environmental contaminants in aquatic ecosystems. He is the principal coordinator of the FCT funded project CLIMATOXEEL, aiming to understand the effects of neurotoxicants, ocean warming and acidification on early life stages of the European eel (Anguilla anguilla).
