First person – J. Pablo Sánchez-Ovando

First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Biology Open, helping researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. J. Pablo Sánchez-Ovando is first author on ‘ Elevated temperatures increase abnormalities in embryos and reduce larval survival in serpulid polychaetes’, published in BiO. J. Pablo conducted the research described in this article while a master's student in Laboratorio de Sistemática de Invertebrados Marinos (LABSIM)’s lab at Universidad del Mar (UMAR), campus Puerto Ángel, Ciudad Universitaria, Oaxaca, México. J. Pablo is now a PhD student in the lab of Laboratorio de Ecofisiología de Organismos Acuáticos at Centro de Investigación Científica y de Educación Superior de Ensenada (CICESE), Baja California, México, investigating how an increase in temperature and ocean acidification affects marine invertebrates, mainly serpulid polychaetes.
