Evangelia Michaloudi is an Associate Professor of Aquatic Ecology at the School of Biology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki since 2012.

She has research interests on zooplankton ecology focusing on food-web interactions in Mediterranean freshwater ecosystems, on integrative taxonomy of zooplankton organisms (rotifers, cladocera, copepoda), on the use of zooplankton in ecological water quality estimation, on the diversity and the biogeographical patterns of zooplankton organisms as well as lake restoration and management.

She has participated in 17 national and international projects, and she has contributed more than 38 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 2 book chapters, as well as more than 60 other publications (i.e. conference proceedings, special publications, technical reports, newspaper and magazine articles). Her publications received over 800 citations (h-index=17).

Evangelia Michaloudi is an Associate Professor of Aquatic Ecology at the School of Biology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki since 2012.

She has research interests on zooplankton ecology focusing on food-web interactions in Mediterranean freshwater ecosystems, on integrative taxonomy of zooplankton organisms (rotifers, cladocera, copepoda), on the use of zooplankton in ecological water quality estimation, on the diversity and the biogeographical patterns of zooplankton organisms as well as lake restoration and management.

She has participated in 17 national and international projects, and she has contributed more than 38 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 2 book chapters, as well as more than 60 other publications (i.e. conference proceedings, special publications, technical reports, newspaper and magazine articles). Her publications received over 800 citations (h-index=17).
