Chryssa Papadaki is a PhD candidate at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, based at the Molecular Ecology Laboratory (UAMECO). Her research focuses on the application of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding for biodiversity assessment and ecological monitoring in freshwater ecosystems. In particular, she investigates macroinvertebrate communities across Mediterranean wetlands of the Aegean archipelago and alpine lakes in Greece, combining molecular approaches with ecological, biogeographical, and statistical analyses.
