About

Francesc Piferrer is a Full Professor at the Institute of Marine Sciences in Spain. His research focuses on epigenetics, particularly in relation to animal production, sex determination in fish, and the effects of environmental factors on genetic expression. Recent articles explore a range of topics including genetic and epigenetic selection methods, epigenetic biomarkers for fish, and evolutionary aspects of sexual systems in aquatic species.
