My research program is focused on understanding the feedback between behavioural and physiological responses allowing animals to compensate and maintain function in changing, often stressful environments. My research uses fish as models to determine how this phenotypic integration could lead to stress resistance. Over the past few years, we have been focused on thermal physiology and behaviour, dominance hierarchies, exposure to toxicants, and salinity stress. We study a range of animals including sharks, elephant fish, skate, Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, hagfish, mangrove rivulus, killifish and seals
