PhD DefenseHey Everyone!
On Tuesday, April 14th at 9:30 am EST, I will be defending my PhD dissertation on the behaviors, terrestrial locomotion, and orientation of amphibious fishes, which includes the research on Walking Catfish that you helped fund! If you would like to tune in and see the results, please use this Zoom link:

In case you can't attend that, I will post a recording of the talk.
Take Care,

About This Project

How do amphibious fishes find their way around on land?

Wake Forest University

I study amphibious fishes, how they move around on land, and where they go while on land. In this study I will travel to southern Florida to run experiments on invasive walking catfish. I hypothesize that this catfish uses visual and chemical cues to navigate on land and migrate to new bodies of water. To test this hypothesis, I will place catfish on land for experiments and expose them to a variety of sensory cues to observe their responses to stimuli.
