Arrow worms and other gelatinous animals as vectors of fish parasites

Beware of the parasites in chaetognaths!

Parasites infest arrow worms and jellies, trying to get to fish. We need molecular and morphology data to know who these parasites are, who the hosts are, and how often and when exactly they occur.

This MSc project includes:

  • Sampling opportunities in diverse sites in Norway
  • Learning techniques at the DNA lab (DNA barcoding) and the morphology lab (identification and taxonomy)
  • Phylogenetic and molecular species delimitation analysis
  • Joining activities for outreach and science popularization​
  • Presenting in academic events and potentially being part of ​a peer-reviewed publication​

​Interested? Contact Luis MartellJoan J Soto Angel, or Aino Hosia
