Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies how animals, especially fish and amphibians, physiologically adapt to extreme environments such as low-oxygen sulfide springs, freezing conditions, and captive rearing. Work combines lab physiology, genetics, and behavior to understand how populations tolerate or evolve resilience to harsh conditions. The research draws on comparative physiology and evolutionary biology to explain trait divergence between wild populations.
