The objective of my master’s thesis is to study the relationship between feather reflectance and pair dynamics in the spotless starling (Sturnus unicolor).

I graduated in Biology from the Complutense University of Madrid. In my final year, I took part in an Erasmus+ exchange in Sweden at Lund University, where I completed my bachelor’s thesis studying mitochondrial plasticity in response to facultative hypothermia in the great tit (Parus major).

After that, I began a master’s degree in Animal Ecology at Lund University. During my studies, I completed an external internship at the University of Freiburg (Germany) as part of a monitoring project on the red fox (Vulpes vulpes), as well as an Erasmus+ exchange at Wageningen University (The Netherlands), where I deepened my knowledge of bioinformatics.

I am currently undertaking a research stay at the National Museum of Natural Sciences (MNCN) to carry out my master’s thesis.
