Extractions: My research group is interested in the cardiorespiratory system from the perspective of its evolutionary design, its control and how it responds to environmental perturbations. The primary focus is with the fish cardiorespiratory system, along with occasional amphibian and reptilian studies. Work with salmonids represents the main, but by no means the exclusive, thrust of the research. Fishes are an especially valuable and interesting research organisms. Foremost, they are diverse, with over 20,000 species, and so collectively they display a phenomenal range of form and function, no doubt because of the very diverse niches they occupy. Some fish live in Antarctic seas at -1.9 o C, while tropical intertidal fish experience temperatures approaching 40 o C. Most fish breathe water, but some breathe air as well. Some fish are extremely sensitive to aquatic pollutants, and yet others are more tolerant. Discovering the mechanisms that underlie these differences is the fascinating challenge for my research group. Currently there are a number of research emphases.
