My research group is particularly interested in the mechanisms of solute and water transport that underpin animal success in variable and often challenging environments. This is because the costs of achieving a stable internal environment are a significant expenditure of an animal’s energy budget, and climate warming will, and already has, impacted this fundamental aspect of an animal’s physiology. We work primarily with aquatic insects and amphipods crustaceans.
