About

Helena Peres is an Assistant Professor at Universidade do Porto Faculdade de Ciências in Portugal. Her research focuses on aquaculture nutrition and the application of novel feed ingredients to improve the health and growth performance of marine fish species, particularly European sea bass and gilthead seabream. Recent articles include studies on the effects of dietary supplements and fermented feed ingredients on fish metabolism and immune status.
