The Ecotoxicology and Aquatic Biology Research Group is a large, dynamic group studying the effects of environmental pollutants on aquatic wildlife and investigating the basic physiology of fish. Key areas of our ecotoxicology work are endocrine disruption and the biological effects of nanoparticles. Our work on pollutants span studies investigating the mechanisms of effect in individuals to population-level impacts. Long-term exposure effects to
