Kike Ballesteros

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the Center for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CSIC) specialized in marine ecology, with a particular focus on benthic ecosystems. Her various lines of research have led her to work in seas and oceans around the world and to make thousands of dives, including in the Mediterranean Sea, to learn about the ecosystems and the anthropic effects they suffer.

Teresa Alcoverro

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the Center for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CSIC) specializing in the role played by biological interactions, both direct and indirect, in the functioning of benthic marine systems dominated by primary producers (macroalgae, seagrass meadows and corals).

Miquel Canals

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the University of Barcelona, expert in the deep ocean. His multidisciplinary studies focus on the impacts of global change and the consequences of human activities on marine ecosystems. He is a pioneer in the use of advanced technologies for the study and mapping of marine bottoms and subsoil. He is currently the director of the Chair of Sustainable Blue Economy at the UB.

Lluís Cardona

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the University of Barcelona who is an expert in marine biology. His studies cover the biology, ecology and management of large marine vertebrates, both marine mammals and turtles and large fish. It works mainly in the Mediterranean, Northwest Africa, the Southwest Atlantic and Antarctica. He specializes in trophic ecology and habitat use analysis, as well as in the study of interactions with fishing.

Emma Cebrián

Scientific Committee

Marine biologist at the Center for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CSIC). His research focuses on the conservation ecology and restoration of Mediterranean benthic habitats. Specifically, he leads studies on biodiversity patterns, biotic and abiotic interactions, and the combined impacts of multiple stressors on marine ecosystems.

Joaquim Garrabou

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the Institute of Marine Sciences (CSIC) specialized in marine conservation. His work focuses on studying the impacts of climate change on coastal habitats in the Mediterranean Sea and on promoting marine protected areas for mitigation and adaptation to ongoing environmental changes.

Josep Lluís Pelegrí

Scientific Committee

Researcher at the Institute of Marine Sciences (CSIC) focused on the study of ocean circulation and its relationship with global climate. He is also interested in ocean health in general and citizen participation in research, considering this last aspect a key element in building the oceans of the future.
