Summary

Assistant Professor, University of Guelph.
I am a comparative animal physiologist who integrates across disciplines and levels of biological organization to understand how animals cope with changing environmental conditions, and why some individuals and species are better able to tolerate these changes than others. Particular interests are understanding how animals sense environmental change, and how the phenotype is adjusted in response (i.e. plasticity). My research is focussed on fish functional morphology and respiratory physiology, but also includes evolutionary physiology, behavioural ecology, and conservation biology.
