Euromarine Network grant awarded to Iratxe Rubio for her PhD training

Euromarine is a European marine science network launched in 2014 which represents the merger of the scientific communities of three former European Networks of Excellence (EUR-OCEANS, Marine Genomics Europe and MarBEF). Its primary goals are to support the identification and initial development of important emerging scientific topics or issues and associated methodologies in marine sciences, as well as to foster new services relevant to the marine scientific community.

Iratxe Rubio, PhD student and member of Future Oceans Lab will be supported by the Euromarine fellowship to participate in a training course on the R software, which is targeted at fisheries scientists. This opportunity will allow her to visit the headquarters of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) (Denmark) in order to attend the Introduction to the R environment course. This one-week training will enhance her knowledge on the R software applied to fisheries research and will help her to find useful tools to apply in her research about climate change and industrial fisheries adaptation. Congratulations Iratxe and good luck!
