Patrick Schubert is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Animal Ecology & Systematics, Justus Liebig University Giessen. His research focuses on mariculture practices for endangered species like seahorses and giant clams, bioactive compounds in marine organisms, and symbiotic relationships involving zooxanthellae. He collaborates with multiple institutions including CEMarin in Colombia and the Fraunhofer Institute.

Teaching responsibilities include Marine Biology/Mariculture (MSc) and Marine Ecology/Systematics (BSc), alongside supervising field courses and student projects. Current projects involve microbial nutrient management in aquaculture systems, seahorse disease studies, giant clam breeding, and coral calcification research under varying pH conditions.

His work integrates conservation biology with applied marine science, emphasizing sustainable aquaculture solutions and biodiversity preservation.
