معرفی
Dr. Michael Collins is a Lecturer in Marine Biology at the University of Plymouth, affiliated with the School of Biological and Marine Sciences within the Faculty of Science and Engineering. He specializes in marine ecophysiology, focusing on how aquatic ectotherms adapt to natural and human-induced environmental changes, particularly under multiple stressors. His multidisciplinary research integrates genomics, biochemistry, and physiology.
Collins teaches undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Marine Molecular Biology, Ecophysiology of Marine Animals, and Conservation Physiology. He holds a PhD in Marine Sciences from the University of Plymouth (2017), where his doctoral work explored climate-driven hypoxia effects on marine invertebrates.
His research addresses critical questions about organismal tolerance to environmental stressors like warming and hypoxia, with applications to conservation and climate resilience. Recent publications emphasize thermal acclimation, hypoxia tolerance, and multistressor responses in marine species. Collins’ work aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals related to life below water and combating climate change.
No scientific awards are listed, but his contributions to marine biology education and research are notable. He advises no named students in the provided data and has no listed grants or labs, though his teaching and research roles suggest active academic engagement.
