Profile

Prinicipal Investigator in Macroalgal & Invertebrate Biology

My research focuses on the reproductive and larval biology, growth, nutrition and ecology of commercially important marine invertebrates (sea urchins, abalone, and sea cucumbers) and more recently on the culture of macroalgae (seaweeds) for human food, for bioremediation and as a biofuel. Linking these themes is my interest in integrated aquaculture, and sustainability in marine systems. This includes researching the potential of farming biomass energy crops at sea: macroalgae for anaerobic digestion to biogas or methane; our recent report of this topic is available from The Crown Estate website.

I have strong links with academic and industrial partners in a variety of disciplines and at international, European, national and local level. I have secured the funding for and co-ordinated projects at European, national and local level. I am module leader for the UHI Marine Science degree’s H3 Aquaculture module.

I have over 50 fully peer-reviewed publications in international journals.

At the Scottish Marine Institute I am a member of the ...

I am also a regular user of the Alan Ansell Research Aquarium.

Teaching

Students/teaching

BSc (Hons) Marine Science

Maeve Kelly is the module leader for the third year course in Aquaculture.  The course gives an up top date perspective of aquaculture, why it is needed, where aquaculture produce comes from, and contrasts the main species produced locally with the global scene. The course focuses on the environmental impacts of aquaculture, again drawing on examples locally and globally, and gives the students opportunity to come to a fully considered opinion of the role of aquaculture as a modern food production system.
