Since 1982, we have been carrying out at the University of Valencia research on Conservation Biology and Parasitology of fish, reptiles and marine mammals. Our investigations have an important applied orientation, because of their relevance for management and conservation of marine species and the protection of their habitats, but we do not neglect basic research aspects focusing on evolutionary and ecological processes, particularly in the context of host-parasite associations.
