Research Interests
I am interested in the environmental and hormonal control of
osmoregulation, development, growth and energetics in fish. Much of
this work is applied to the conservation and restoration of anadromous
fish. Recent research includes three major areas:
1) Hormonal control of salinity tolerance and mechanisms of ion
transport in anadromous fish (salmon, shad and sturgeon).
2) Environmental regulation of migratory behavior and physiology in
anadromous fish.
3) Disruption of normal development by contaminants, including
endocrine disruptors.
