Final Degree Project in Marine Sciencies of a UCV student in the Nutrigenomics group of IATS2025-06-23
Alice Gasperini, 4th year student of double degree in Marine Sciences and Biotechnology at Catholic University of Valencia (UCV), have just completed the Final Degree Project (TFG) in Marine Sciences in the Nutrigenomics and Fish Growth Endocrinology Group.
Alice started her TFG, along with her curricular internship, in the IATS in February, being involved in the work about the validation of a set of biological age marker genes in farmed fish. This stay has led to the completion of her TFG, entitled “Validating Multi-Omics Biological Age Markers as Welfare Indicators in Farmed Gilthead Sea Bream (Sparus aurata)” and supervised by Beatriz Salesa Landete, from the UCV, and Fernando Naya Català and Álvaro Belenguer Ferrando, from the Nutrigenomics and Fish Growth Endocrinology Group in the IATS.
Alice defended her work excellently at the UCV on the 16th of June 2025, obtaining a grade of 9.93 out of 10 (Matrícula de Honor). Doctors Jerónimo Chirivella Martorell and Ainara Ballesteros Mascarell comprised the panel that evaluated the work.
