Welcome to the web pages of the laboratory of Heroen Verbruggen. I am a researcher with the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) within the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). The team is situated in the joint unit between IEO and the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) in Gandia, near Valencia. I also have an honorary appointment at the University of Melbourne in Australia, where part of my team is in Melbourne Integrative Genomics.
The lab's main research line is in the biodiversity, genomics and evolutionary biology of algae. We also work on environmental genomics of marine holobionts, primarily corals. Please learn more about the research in the lab through the links below, who we are and what we enjoy thinking about, and have a look at this page if you want to read some of our papers.
NOW RECRUITING: We are establishing a new laboratory at the IEO in Spain. If you are interested in joining the lab, email me. We are looking for people with good skills in molecular biology and/or data science. Note that all new positions will be based in Gandia (Valencia, Spain), and there is no new recruitment in Melbourne.
