José Ricardo Paula is an Assistant Researcher and Lecturer at MARE (Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciencias), recently awarded as a LaCaixa Junior Leader Fellow (2024) and the Principal Investigator of the Behavioural Ecology and Evolution Group. José is also the current President of the Portuguese Ethological Society. José is also a Visitor Researcher at the Hawai'i Insitute of Marine Biology (University of Hawai'i). He graduated in Evolutionary and Developmental Biology in 2011, obtained a MSc in Conservation Biology in 2013, and a PhD in Biology in 2020. José fascinated by the intricacies of social interactions in nature. Most of his research has been focused on cleaner fish, small aquatic animals that provide a valuable service to other species by removing parasites and dead tissue from their skin. He is particularly interested in the relevance of animal cognition at an ecosystem level, how species interact, and how their behaviour and cognition have evolved over time. Jose is also interested in the complex cognitive abilities of animals. His research also focuses on understanding the neural basis of fish cognition and how it has evolved over time. For this, he uses a combination of techniques, including neurogenomics, neuroanatomy, and behavioural analysis. The relevance of his research work was recognised and awarded the FLAD Science Award Altlantic (2023, 300K eur), the Best PhD in Ecology by SPECO-FAD (2020) and Marie Sklodowska-Curie Seal of Excellence by the European Commission (2021). José was 8-times invited speaker in international seminars, including by Uni. of Hawaii, Hong Kong, Otago (New Zealand) and James Cook. (Australia). So far, José has secured >1.08M EUR as PI and CO-PI of research grants and 2M EUR as a team member of research grants (FLAD, FCT, LaCaixa Foundation, HKRC, and MAR2020). Since 2018, José lectured 3 BSc courses (Animal Behaviour, Physiology, Marine Biology) and 3 MSc courses (Comparative & Dev. Neurobiology; Adv. Sub. in Social Neuroscience, Marine Resources). José also supervised 2 PhD Students, 6 MSc students, 3 Erasmus+ interns and 4 BSc trainees. José is strongly engaged in international collaborations. He was also responsible for scientific expeditions to Lizard Island (Australia), Moorea (French Polynesia) and Maputo (Mozambique). José is also Associate Editor of acta ethologica and Associate Editor of Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution. He is a member of the organising committee of the program "Bringing schools to climate change science" at Laboratório Marítimo da Guia and a former Event Manager of PintOfScience. José is also member of 7 scientific societies, including the Society for Open, Reliable, and Transparent Eco. and Evo. Biology, aiming to improve reliability and transparency in ecology and evolutionary biology. José is author of 50 peer-reviewed articles, some in top-ranked journals such as Nature Eco. Evo., Sci. Reports and Bio. Letters (H-index: 17; Citations: 1132+) and highlighted by renowned institutions (Eur. Commission) and media (e.g. National Geographic, Discovery News, Science).
