Recent Happenings - Peake Lab

At the University of Manitoba, Cameron Barth, PhD student, and Peter Allen, Post-Doctoral Fellow, are working on research projects directed at understanding the ecology and environmental physiology of lake sturgeon, Acipenser fulvescens. Currently, Cam is elucidating relationships between age, diet and habit use in juvenile lake sturgeon. Peter is investigating calcium regulation in lake sturgeon, and how reproductive development affects whole body calcium regulation. Both Cam and Peter's research projects are based at the Canadian Rivers Institute's Manitoba Field Station with Dr. Stephan Peake and at the University of Manitoba with Dr. Gary Anderson.
