Biografía

Dolores Ruiz-Lupión

​

Beginnings

I started my academic career obtaining Bachelor's degrees in Marine and Environmental Sciences at the Universities of Cádiz and Almería respectively. Later I studied a Master's Degree in Global Change Assessment at the University of Almería. This training gave me the opportunity to get a FPU pre-doctoral contract and start my research career. I did a Doctoral Thesis in Ecology at the Arid Zones Experimental Station (EEZA-CSIC) entitled: "An eco-evolutionary approach to ecological food webs through simulation".

​

Scientific Research

My scientific interest is the modelling and ecology of terrestrial and aquatic food webs, focusing on the population, ecological and evolutionary consequences of predator-prey interactions under multiple environmental conditions. And mainly, the integration of theoretical and empirical studies (both field and laboratory) in order to obtain quality data to parameterize and feed-back theoretical models.

Becoming a Scientific Illustrator

Throughout this period I have developed my skills as a Scientific Illustrator by using vector graphic design programs such as CorelDRAW or Inkscape. This has led me not only to illustrate my own scientific articles, but also to collaborate with a large number of senior and junior researchers in the preparation and design of oral communications, posters, composition of graphics, diagrams, iconographies,... , and to teach specialized graphic design courses for CSIC researchers.

Get to know my Scientific Articles and take a look at the ILLUSTRATIONS

Take a look at the graphics, diagrams, illustrations and other figures. From graphics out of R language (R core development team) to the most complex pictures have been painstakingly done.
