ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Carlos Espírito-Santo is an author on ‘ Swimming in fish: integrating redox homeostasis and immune responses’, published in JEB. Carlos is a postdoc in the lab of Rodrigo Ozório at CIIMAR - Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research of the University of Porto, Portugal, investigating the effects of induced swimming activity (exercise) on health and welfare of fish, and its implications in broader activities such as restocking programs or aquaculture.
