My research has examined the endocrine regulation of appetite and growth in fish, with applied work on developing aquaculture feeding protocols and testing sustainable sources of protein for fish feeds. Before joining Cornell, I worked in the aquaculture industry for a number of years on sturgeon and striped bass production, as well as on seafood industry sustainability certification and traceability. The goal of my work at Cornell is promoting resourceful methods to help grow a much-needed U.S. aquaculture industry, which will ease pressure on wild fish stocks while improving our nation’s food security.
