ECR Spotlight – Federico De Pascalis

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Federico De Pascalis is an author on ‘ Flight style and time–activity budgets of the smallest petrels’, published in JEB. Federico is a postdoc in the lab of Lorenzo Serra at Italian Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA), Italy, investigating the challenges faced by oceanic birds, particularly how they find food and navigate in the ever-changing marine environment.
