Professor James Atkinson is an Honorary Professor at the School of Biodiversity, One Health & Veterinary Medicine, University of Glasgow, and an Affiliate Researcher at The Hunterian Museum & Art Gallery Division. His work focuses on marine invertebrate biology, particularly Norway lobsters (Nephrops norvegicus), with emphasis on their physiology, health, and post-harvest processing quality. He has contributed to projects like the Scottish Nephrops Survey, investigating factors affecting product quality and freshness.
Research interests include marine invertebrate nutrition, disease ecology (e.g., Hematodinium infections), and the impact of capture methods on meat quality. His recent work also addresses public health strategies during lockdowns, as seen in the 2020 report on working-age population health.
His publications span marine biology, microbiology, and food technology, with a focus on crustacean health, aquaculture practices, and food safety. Notable collaborations include studies on stressors affecting lobster physiology and bacterial virulence mechanisms in aquatic species.
Awards and grants are not explicitly mentioned in the provided texts. His research integrates laboratory studies with field observations, contributing to both academic understanding and industry standards in marine resource management.
