I have an European PhD (2007) in Biological Sciences (Ecology) from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) with a work on Biological Oceanography at AZTI. Subsequently, I enjoyed a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship on Molecular Ecology at the University of Wales in Bangor (UK; Molecular Ecology and Fisheries Genetics Laboratory). From March 2010 to July 2015, I worked applying molecular tools in Marine Ecology at the Department of Genetics of the UPV/EHU where I also taught undergraduate and master's degree courses. From July 2015 to January 2021, I worked as an Environmental Technician in Urban Ecology projects in the area of Information and Innovation for Sustainability at the Environmental Studies Centre (CEA) of the Vitoria-Gasteiz City Council, where I coordinated the European projects in which the CEA participated. Since 22 January 2021, I am an assistant lecturer in the Department of Zoology and Animal Cell Biology (knowledge area: Zoology) of the UPV/EHU where I am part of the Consolidated Group type A of the Basque Government IT1571-22 "Genes, Populations, Ecosystems: Fundamental and Applied Research". In total, I have participated in more than 30 national/international projects with the result of more than 25 scientific publications in prestigious journals with high impact in their area and more than 40 communications to congresses (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Aitor-Albaina).
