Professor Dr. Ezequiel Marzinelli

Biography

Ezequiel Marzinelli is an Adjunct Associate Professor in the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of New South Wales. His research primarily focuses on marine community ecology, particularly the ecological processes and environmental changes that influence interactions between microbes and hosts, especially habitat-forming species. His work aims to understand the disruptions in interactions that affect associated biodiversity and employs large-scale surveys and experiments to gain mechanistic insights into the causes and consequences of species declines. Notable projects include the restoration of underwater forests and the study of host-microbiome interactions. He has been actively involved in multiple research initiatives aimed at restoring lost aquatic habitats along the Sydney coastline and investigating the roles of ecological networks in maintaining marine biodiversity. Marzinelli holds a PhD in Marine Science from the University of Sydney and a degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Buenos Aires. He is passionate about integrating theoretical and applied ecology with advancements in environmental genomics to develop strategies for conservation and restoration in degraded marine environments.
