Activity summary

Dr. Christos Gkenas is a fish ecologist with broad interest in tackling key questions in invasion biology. His research focuses primarily on trophic interactions among native and invasive species and the way these drive changes in community and food-web structure and function across space and time. His research involves field and laboratory work and use of advanced statistical tools and mainly targets Mediterranean systems with growing human impact
