I am an evolutionary geneticist interested in the study of adaptation and speciation. Most of my research has been carried out in marine gastropods. I did my PhD at the University of Vigo (2003-07) with Emilio Rolán-Alvarez and Paloma Morán, studying ecological speciation on L. saxatilis. As a result of my PhD I published 4 articles. In 2007 I moved to the University of Sheffield (UK) with a Marie Curie fellowship to work on the project Molecular adaptation in ecologically relevant organisms with Roger Butlin. During this time I developed my skills in the use of next generation sequencing (NGS) to study the genetic basis of adaptation. This work led to two highly-cited reviews (Stapley et al. 2010 [TREE], Ekblom and Galindo 2011 [Heredity]). In 2008 R. Butlin (PI) and I (co-PI) applied for a NERC project (Natural Environment Research Council, UK) Genetic basis of parallel local adaptation which was funded in 2009 and in which I was working as postdoctoral research associate. This project led to a series of articles on speciation on L. saxatilis using NGS: Galindo et al. 2010 (JEB), Canbäck et al. 2012 (Mol Ecol Res), Butlin et al. 2014 (Evolution), Westram et al. 2014 (Mol Ecol), Westram et al. 2016 (Mol Ecol). In 2011 I moved to the University of Vigo with a Parga Pondal Fellowship (2011-2016, Xunta de Galicia). I maintained my collaboration with R. Butlin. During the time I worked in R. Butlin group I had the opportunity to collaborate in different projects and to co-supervise MSc students. Among these collaborations I published: Webster et al. 2012 (I J Ecology), Jackson et al. 2012 (PloS one), Badouin et al. 2013 (PloS one), Otti et al. 2014 (Behav Ecol), Hollander et al. 2015 (JEB). At the University of Vigo I had the opportunity to continue my work on speciation in L. saxatilis (Galindo et al. 2013 (JEB), Galindo et al. 2014 (Biol J Linn Soc), Boulding et al. 2017 (Ecol Evol). I started new collaborations, R. Faria (University of Porto) on flat periwinkles and E. Boulding (University of Guelph) on L. saxatilis, which are still ongoing. As a result of these: Carvalho et al. 2015 (J Moll Stud), Carvalho et al. 2016 (Biol J Linn Soc), Kess et al. 2018 (Ecol Evol). I also supervised undergraduate (7), MSc (2) and Erasmus (2) students. I co-supervised 1 PhD student working on Littorina fabalis (2018) and I co-supervise another PhD student working on Nucella lapillus. I participated in the organisation of International Conferences, Symposiums and Workshops. I teach genetics in the undergraduate course of Biology and in two MSc courses. I also have been collaborating with R. Butlin in his ERC advanced grant The evolution of barriers to gene exchange. In 2019 I got a JIN project (Jóvenes investigadores sin vinculación o con vinculación temporal) (198440 eur) from the Spanish Ministry of Science (Proyectos I+D+i "Retos Investigación") as PI, entitled Genomic signatures of direct and indirect human-induced environmental changes in marine organisms: the key to species resilience. My current position at the University of Vigo is Lecturer in the department of Biochemistry, Genetics and Immunology. Currently I am PI of 3 different projects funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, all on genomics of marine gastropods.
