Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies the reproductive and growth physiology of salmon and trout, particularly focusing on why some fish mature too early (precociously) and how factors like feeding, light exposure, and hormone levels affect spawning and growth in species such as Chinook salmon and steelhead trout. The work combines genetics, endocrinology (hormone studies), and fisheries management to help conservation and aquaculture programs manage fish populations. Note that the publication list also includes unrelated papers on lymphoma treatment and engineering education, which appear to reflect shared author names rather than this PI's core research area.
