I am is broadly interested in how freshwater and marine animal species from the Arctic to tropical ecosystems respond and adapt to multiple stressors such as climate change, ocean acidification, and pollutants in five major multidisciplinary research themes:
1) Interactive effects of multiple stressors such as marine heat waves, ocean acidification, contaminants, predators, and algal toxins on various aquatic species, from zooplankton, and aquatic insects to fish.
2) How transgenerational acclimations and/or evolutionary responses to multiple stressors may alter the single and combined effects on zooplankton, particularly copepods.
3) Behavioural ecology of predator-prey interaction under the warming and polluted environments.
4) Winter stress ecology and evolution.
5) Impact of climate change on aquaculture production.
I have been a key researcher in 5 Arctic expeditions in Greenland and on RV Kronprins Haakon to almost the North Pole (87.5 °N) within the framework of the Nansen Legacy Program.
All of the research themes fall within five UN Sustainable development goals: SDGs 1 - No poverty, SDGs 3 - Good health and well-being, SDGs 4 - Quality education, SDGs 13 - Climate Action, SDGs 14 - Life below water.
I have received many prestigious prizes, awards and grants, particularly the H.C. Ørsted cofunded by Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions (EU), International Foundation for Science (Sweden), large research grant from the British Ecological Society (UK), the winner of The Elsevier Foundation Chemistry for Climate Action Challenge. In 2021, I received a young research talent grant from the Research Council of Norway. This is the most prestigious research grant for an early career researcher in Norway. In 2022, I joined the Department of Biology, University of Oxford as a visiting researcher.
