Area of Study- physiology and biochemistry


Research interests - Presently I am studying the effects of large fiber diameter in fish white muscle on the recovery of high-energy molecules. I am also interested in the effects of cellular design and organization on physiology and ecology of marine organisms. Finally, I'd eventually like to start examining the physiological ecology of animals from extreme environments (deep ocean, polar, desert, and long-term hybernating organisms).

Hobbies and other interests - When not in the lab, I enjoy teaching kids, playing volleyball, ice skating, roller blading, fishing, reading, and playing/writing music.

Advisor
