Great work @LiamTigert ! #proudsupervisor ⬇️⬇️.
My latest publication is out now! Collaboration with Peter Hubbard at @CienciasDoMar, we found that low oxygen can impair the olfaction in sea bream (Sparus aurata).@cosimaporteus @UTSCresearch.You can read the article here, with open access!.

Great work @GwangseokYoon! Check out our latest paper ⬇️⬇️ @UTSCresearch This started as a paper written by an undergrad. Thank you to the two reviewers for very useful feedback and comments! @conphysjournal.
Our recent review paper was just published at Conservation Physiology. We demonstrated that ocean acidification could alter energy budgets, which could influence growth and reproduction in marine fish. @UtscBiology @CERA_UTSC

Writing this commentary with my trainees was a lot of fun! Check it out! We focused on things we have learned over the years that are often not mentioned in Materials and methods section. Meant for those starting out! @UtscBiology @LiamTigert
Another paper came out from Cosima's lab regarding the guideline for olfactory behavioral assays on aquatic animals. This will be a good reference point to improve reproducibility of behavior data! Check it out! @cosimaporteus @LiamTigert @UtscBiology.
