Rob McAllen is a Professor of Marine Biology at University College Cork, specializing in marine ecosystems and organismal responses to environmental stressors. His recent research includes the tolerance of marine sponges to nitrogenous fertilisers, recovery patterns of temperate mesophotic communities, and the impact of deoxygenation on sponge holobionts. Located in Ireland, he also investigates the behavioural responses of marine scavengers and the dynamics of zooplankton-associated bacterial communities.
