Science In Action

Sturgeon Exposure

Kenya, Matthew, and Zoe assessing larval mortality and renewing exposure water.

Our Sturgeon exposure required all-hands-on-deck across multiple endpoints, including water changes, behavior assessment, CTmax, and morphology. Segarra Lab undergrads and additional assistance from Fangue Lab members helped make it all come together!
