Biological Oceanography, Marine Ecology

I am Dr Geovana Maria Leon-Pech,  postdoctoral researcher at TecNM, México. I earned a PhD in marine ecology from CICESE, Ensenada, México. I have my M.Sc. from CINVESTAV, Mérida, México, I completed a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of Rhode Island, USA. My expertise lies in population genetics, ecology, and biology in coral reef ecosystems, focusing on genetic structure and diversity of marine populations. I initiated collaborations in coral restoration projects, integrating genetic diversity studies in restored populations and environmental DNA studies. As a Divemaster, I have contributed to coral reef ecology projects in the Pacific and the Mexican Caribbean, aligning my work at MARES, A.C., with other academic and environmental institutions.
