Born in Serantes, Spain, on October 3, 1916, this scientist showed interest in natural history from a young age and after graduating with honors from the University of Santiago de Compostela and a master’s degree in natural sciences from the Complutense University of Madrid, began teaching different subjects related to natural sciences in various schools in Spain during the 1940s.

In 1948 She entered as a fellow at the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO), where she began investigating the reason for marine incrustations on ships, and then began to study about the study of zooplankton.

In 1951 he obtained a Doctorate degree in Experimental Psychology, Analytical Chemistry and Plant Ecology, awarded by the University of Madrid. Shortly after, in 1952 she was appointed oceanographer biologist at the IEO laboratory in Vigo.

A year later she traveled to England, awarded a scholarship by the British Council to continue research on zooplankton at the Plymouth Laboratory, where she specialized in the study of various marine animals such as jellyfish, siphonophores and ctenophores. During 1954 he was part of some oceanographic campaigns on ships, as well as expeditions and scientific cruises in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, on ships from different countries, including the United States, England and Mexico. These voyages on ships made her the first female scientist on a UK research ship.

In 1955 he returned to the IEO laboratory in Vigo, to continue his studies on plankton and on the design of networks to filter it in marine expeditions and the fishing fleet. During 1951 and 1957, his first publications were produced in the IEO bulletins, on his Zooplankton studies that occurred in the Atlantic, Mediterranean and Newfoundland peninsular littoral

In 1958 she got a Fulbright Fellowship to do research at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts and then began working at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography in La Jolla, California, recommended by Mary Sears, president of the First Oceanographic Congress of the United States.

In 1967 she obtained a doctorate in Biology at the University of Madrid and in January 1970 she became a Research Biologist at the Scientific Center of the Southwest Fisheries of the United States National Marine Fisheries Service, a position he held until 1987.

Something that also stands out in her life is her complaint in 1977 about the gender discrimination she suffered at the National Fisheries Service center, which also made her a pioneer in the defense of women’s labor rights.

María de los Ángeles Alvariño González passed away on May 29, 2005 in La Jolla, California.
