Kara M. Million studies the behavior, mating, and evolution of freshwater fish, especially darters (small colorful North American fish). Her work examines how visual patterns and scent cues shape mate choice, how gill parasites affect fish reproduction, and how computational methods can help analyze animal signals. She also engages in public science outreach around endangered fish species.
