Nadia is an ENVISION DTP NERC funded PhD student at Lancaster Environment Centre, supervised by Dr Sally Keith (Lancaster University), Dr Nick Isaac (NERC Centre for Ecology & Hydrology) and Dan Exton (Operation Wallacea). After her bachelor’s degree in Applied Marine Biology (Bangor University), Nadia went on to study an MPhil in Biological Science (Zoology) at The University of Cambridge. Nadia has previously worked as a research assistant for the Marine Sensory Ecology Group (The University of Queensland) and the Marine Behavioural Ecology group (The University of Cambridge). Her previous research experience involves investigations into the visual capabilities of both marine and aquatic fish species. With particular focus in colour perception in Rhinecanthus aculeatus and the sensory drivers of individual behaviours in Gasterosteus aculeatus. Nadia’s current research focuses on the relationship between aggression and colouration across various species of Chaetodontidae, and how anthropogenic change may alter such factors to combine her experience in both visual and behavioural ecology.
