He is a biologist whose work focuses on invasion ecology and crustacean biology, with particular expertise in the behavioral and physiological mechanisms underlying species invasions. He earned his doctoral degree in biology from the University of Lodz in Poland, where his research explored the invasion potential of genetically distinct populations of the amphipod Dikerogammarus villosus. His academic journey has been defined by an integrative approach that combines experimental ecology, morphology, and biogeography to understand species interactions and the ecological success of invasive organisms. Dr. Podwysocki’s research has made important contributions to the understanding of invasion mechanisms in aquatic ecosystems. His studies have shown how population-level variation shapes dispersal patterns, feeding behavior, and environmental adaptability in invasive amphipods. By revealing how genetic differences influence invasion potential and hybridization outcomes, his work supports the development of predictive models that can anticipate the spread of invasive species. His experimental work has connected physiological and morphological traits, such as exoskeleton strength and mouthpart structure, to ecological performance and competitive dominance. With a growing research portfolio, Dr. Podwysocki has authored several publications indexed in international databases such as Scopus and SCI, where he holds 12 citations across 9 documents with an h-index of 2.
