Mário Jorge Faria dos Santos Araújo

Researcher

Mário Jorge Araújo holds a PhD in Biology and Ecology of Global Changes, and his research focuses on the impacts of human activities on aquatic organisms, with an emphasis on the molecular and physiological effects on fish. One of his current areas of interest is the study of the effects of nanomaterials on aquatic species, both from the perspective of trophic transfer risks and molecular-level effects, using biochemical and molecular techniques (e.g., proteomics and gene expression). Currently, he also explores industrial applications of these tools in studies on the effects of innovative water treatments in aquaculture (e.g., ozonation and micro-oxygenation) on fish health.
