Att avliva kycklingar och kor utan smärtlindring är olagligt, men för skaldjur saknas motsvarande regelverk. Nu efterlyser forskare vid Göteborgs universitet mer skonsamma metoder, om …

Discover magazine focuses on our research on testing painkillers in Norway lobster @ekasiouras.bsky.social . We need to know what drugs at what doses are effective if decapod crustaceans are added to science legislation #animalwelfare #crustacean

Our research on the use of pain-relieving drugs in Norway lobster covered by Gothenburg Post (in Swedish). Great to have news coverage and make an impact with science @ekasiouras.bsky.social

I’m so happy to announce that our new paper is out. We have demonstrated that pain relieving drugs reduce or prevent potentially painful response to electric shock in Norway lobster. A step closer to prove beyond any unreasonable doubt that decapods experience pain!

Proud and inspired after attending my supervisor’s professor appointment ceremony. @lynneusneddon.bsky.social
Witnessing their dedication, hard work, and leadership being recognized in such a meaningful way was truly moving. Honoured to witness it!

I’m thrilled to share that my halftime seminar went very well! I successfully defended my work and received valuable feedback to guide me in the next phase of my phd. I’m incredibly grateful to my supervisors for their support, guidance and encouragement. Looking forward to continuing this journey.

Human pollution & climate change are sapping coastal waters of oxygen & now Liam Tigert, Peter Hubbard & @cosimaporteus.bsky.social show that fish struggle to smell some food odours when O2 levels are low, although the sense recovers when O2 returns to normal

Happy to share that my previous work on rainbow trout is published. Check description below for more details.
We used biologgers to measure heart rate during stress tests and found bold and shy rainbow trout were similar in response but heart rate was linked to how stressful the test was @ekasiouras.bsky.social #fishsci #fishwelfare www.mdpi.com/2410-3888/10...

I’m so proud of my best friend starting his phd journey! Studying a fascinating topic and starting a new chapter in the Netherlands. 🏳️🌈🦋
Having a blast in #Utrecht with my colleagues from #leidenuni #CML #urban_programme, where I presented my #phd idea for the first time! Constructive, interdisciplinary & fresh ideas on #biodiversity and #ecology #research in cities.
More to come!🦋
