I am mainly interested in the impacts on fish populations of different stressors such as estrogens and other contaminants of emerging concern. I am also interested in predator-prey systems; in particular […]

The area is a designated Area of Concern (AOC) by the Environmental Protection Agency due to severe environmental degradation. Although recent restoration projects have benefited the estuary, the status of muskellunge, an indicator species, and their use of restored habitats […]

    I am broadly interested in the ecology of freshwater fish and fisheries, particularly in the Midwestern United States and Canada. I have also become increasingly interested in examining how science is done and in looking for ways to improve scientific methods and practices. My current research spans these two broad categories and focuses on applying […]
