Lena Granhag
Lena's background is in marine ecology working with biofouling on ship hulls. Lena is PI in the research projects Invasive Species Action Plan (ISAP), CLIMATE INVASIVES (Biodiversa + project) and VEKTOR. Her current research focus on marine alien species introduced with ballast water and via ship hulls. She is member of the expert group Ballast Water and Other Ship Vectors in International Marine Research Council (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea ICES). During a Marie Curie Fellowship at Plymouth Marine Laboratory in UK, Lena worked with the impact of bacterial films for development of biofouling, using the technique Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) to detect and localize different bacteria. During a post doc at Kristineberg Marine Research Station Lena worked with the american comb-jellyfish (Mnemiopsis leidyi).
