Really happy to share a super cool paper with my former grad student @tblanchard.bsky.social where we show that thermal performance curves for developing fish generated at constant temperatures don’t always allow you to predict how embryos will respond to fluctuating temperatures

Excited to share another paper from work I did during my PhD with @trishschulte.bsky.social and @madisonearhart.bsky.social. We looked at how fish embryos respond differently to constant and fluctuating temperatures! 🐟

New paper out in #ES&T where we show that killifish exposure to crude oil has impacts (on embryo/larval development and transcriptome) that propagate to their offspring and to their grand-offspring. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

Speaker spotlight!
@trishschulte.bsky.social studies how fishes' physiology, biochemistry & genetics adapt to challenging environmental conditions, like high temperature.

Hear from her at our symposium on 20 November. Online & in person tickets available.

i was recently interviewed by @csz-sczofficial.bsky.social about my phd, science, art, really all things 👩🏻‍🔬🧪🐠🌎

still over the moon i got this award, sometimes i am still reminding myself that i did a phd 🥲

check it out! 👇🏼

Check out our new perspective on homeostasis and stress! Led by @evoecoalex.bsky.social with me and @cam-g.bsky.social. academic.oup.com/icb/advance-....

we’re so back baby!!

an excellent start to the sturgeon field season today :)

here’s a 7ft sturgeon being released

#sturgeonsaturday everyday 🧪👩🏻‍🔬🌎🌐🦑

Little is known about the mechanisms controlling thermal acclimation in fish.

Check out this study exploring possible roles of hormones & skin thermoreception during acclimation in goldsinny wrasse.

We are also highlighting Chris Wood, member of @jexpbiol.bsky.social Editorial Advisory Board and one of the journal’s most prolific authors, as an extraordinary biologist this week. #100biologists

Long line for advance polls in Vancouver for the Canadian Federal election. Maybe a sign for a high turnout. Great to see democracy in action

Congratulations to ConPhys Associate Editor Anne Todgham for being awarded this year's Bidder Lecture by @sebiology.bsky.social 🎉

Praised by the judges for her "commitment to conservation. This is currently vitally important.”

Don't miss Anne's talk at SEB 2025 in Antwerp! Tuesday 8/7 17.30

here is the paper link!!! :

This was a team effort 🫶🏼 with @wbuggiii.bsky.social, @biomatt.bsky.social, @trishschulte.bsky.social, and bluesky-less Gary and Ken

So excited to see this paper officially published! 🤩🤩

In their Review, Kathleen Gilmour @uottawascience.bsky.social, Carol Best & Suzanne Currie discuss the physiological consequences of social status in fish, using the reactive scope model to explain the differences between dominant and subordinate fish

i haven’t done #sturgeonsaturday the past few weeks bc of *everything*

but its #internationalwomensday and we should recognize & celebrate incredible women in science!

tell us about your research!👩🏻‍🔬
