Pablo Amador is a quantitative ecologist and aquatic ecotoxicologist interested in understanding how ecological processes and biological communities change across spatial and temporal scales. His research combines long-term ecological time series, GIS, spatially explicit models and statistical modelling to identify ecological patterns and assess the effects of environmental change and chemical stressors. He completed his PhD at the Universitat de València, conducting his doctoral research at the Albufera Biological Station (EBA), and defended his thesis in 2026. His work focuses particularly on macroecotoxicology, community and functional ecology, ecological stability and environmental risk assessment.

Eduardo M. García Roger is a lecturer and researcher at the Universitat de València, where he holds the position of full professor in the Department of Microbiology and Ecology. His teaching work includes Ecology courses in the degrees of Biology and Environmental Sciences and also in the master's degree in Biodiversity: Evolution and Conservation. 

Since his PhD, he has developed a research career focused on the evolutionary biology and ecology of aquatic populations, especially in temporary habitats such as ponds, pools and small intermittent watercourses in the Mediterranean region. Professionally, she carries out her research at the Cavanilles Institute of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology, in the Evolutionary Ecology research group. Throughout his career, Dr. Eduardo M. García Roger has published more than 50 scientific articles in high impact international journals, such as Limnology and Oceanography, Scientific Reports, Freshwater Biology, Oikos, or Proceedings of the Royal Society. In addition, he has participated in more than 70 national and international scientific congresses and conferences, where he has presented advances on the adaptation of organisms to environmental unpredictability and the evolutionary mechanisms operating in temporary aquatic ecosystems. 

His research combines experimental design with field research and the development of theoretical models. Recently, he has been interested in the application of genomic tools to study adaptive processes in rotifer populations and other aquatic organisms. He has collaborated in research exploring the relationship between ecology and genetics, and has used models to explain the phenomenon of bet hedging in rotifer populations. 

Regarding his international experience, Dr. García Roger has carried out research stays in the United States and England, including a postdoc within an EU 7th Framework Programme research project at the University of Barcelona, which has broadened his perspective on the study of community and metacommunity ecology in temporary aquatic habitats. 

Since 2018 he is Vice-Dean of Studies at the Faculty of Biological Sciences of the Universitat de València.

Pascual López-López is Associate Professor of Ecology at the Department of Microbiology and Ecology of the University of Valencia and researcher at the Cavanilles Institute of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology (ICBiBE), where he leads the Movement Ecology Lab.

His research focuses on movement ecology, spatial ecology and conservation biology, with a particular interest in the study of threatened raptors. Throughout his career, he has conducted research aimed at understanding how environmental conditions, landscape structure and human activities influence movement patterns, space use, habitat selection and population dynamics of wildlife. His work integrates high-resolution telemetry and bio-logging technologies, remote sensing, geographic information systems, spatial modelling and advanced demographic analyses.

Since 2006, he has participated in numerous research projects related to movement ecology and vertebrate conservation, conducting studies in several European and Latin American countries. His main research interests include the spatial ecology of large raptors, dispersal and migration processes, ecological connectivity, the dynamics of threatened populations and the assessment of impacts associated with human infrastructures, particularly in the context of the energy transition and the expansion of renewable energy.

His research combines both fundamental and applied approaches with the aim of generating scientific knowledge that supports biodiversity conservation and evidence-based decision-making. In this context, he has led and participated in numerous competitive research projects and knowledge-transfer contracts with public administrations, conservation organisations and energy-sector companies, contributing to the development of measures aimed at reducing impacts on wildlife and improving the management of threatened species.

He is the author of more than one hundred scientific publications in international peer-reviewed journals, has presented his work at more than one hundred national and international conferences, and regularly collaborates with research groups from different countries. He also maintains an active editorial role as Associate Editor and scientific reviewer for several international journals specialising in ecology, zoology and conservation.

In the field of teaching, he lectures in undergraduate and postgraduate courses related to ecology, biodiversity conservation, endangered species management and movement ecology. He has supervised five PhD dissertations, as well as numerous master's and bachelor's theses, contributing to the training of new generations of researchers and professionals in environmental and biological sciences.

His research pursues a common goal: understanding how organisms respond to a constantly changing environment and applying this knowledge to the development of effective strategies for biodiversity conservation.
