About me

Senior Lecturer in Marine Biotechnology: Zoology My research interests include, domestication of marine finfish species, environmental entrainment of fish physiology and the development and application of aquaculture biotechnolgy.

Research

I have a number of research interests including:

Environmental perception and the subsequent entrainment of behavioural and physiological rhythms like reproduction in teleosts. Non visual light perception, Clock genes and circadian biology Domestication of "new species" for marine aquaculture Culture of marine organsisms not for consumption Genomics & transcriptomics in non-model marine organisms
