Dr. Valentina Rovelli
I am a passionate nature lover and my curiosity for life naturally flow into biological studies. Scientifically speaking, I grew up with a strong background in ecology and for my master thesis I studied the population ecology of an endemic frog in Italy. During my PhD I expanded my interests shifting to the field of molecular ecology, carrying on a thesis that encompasses reproductive biology, population genomics and conservation genetics of three Italian amphibian species. Now I am working as a postdoc on the ecological genomics of the Near Eastern Fire Salamander in Israel, focusing my research on local adaptation and climate change effects.
