Biography
I am from Chile 🇨🇱, where I grew up as an artisanal fisherman, catching Southern hake and other delicious fish. I started working as fisherman when at the age of 12, spending my summer and winter school holidays at sea. Even now, those early days still bring a lump to my throat — a source of great pride and good memories.
My research primarily focuses on macrophysiology, complemented by elements of experimental ecophysiology, though this plays a smaller role in my work nowadays. These approaches enable me to uncover how animals thrive and adapt to ever-changing environmental conditions, across space and time.
