Pillars Programs of Research

Physiology of Marine Vertebrates

Understand how marine mammals respond to extreme environments and changes in their environment.

Crucial information to foresee their limitations in the face of environmental impacts.

Led by Dr. Andreas Fahlman, this program works with desensitized and trained animals to voluntarily perform research procedures.

This approach allows the collection of physiological data without stressful factors, which provides invaluable information. In addition, thanks to technological innovation, novel methods have been developed that allow obtaining and understanding this physiological data, directly applicable in the natural environment.
