Navigating seafood consumption during pregnancy and breastfeeding can be tricky, but no fear! The newly revamped "Fish for your Health" website offers a user-friendly guide to make informed choices for you and your baby! Learn more here: https://t.co/F1nDOty11b #pregnancytips

[Peter Euclide @peuclide]

Come work with me and @HookLab for grad school!

Topics include lake trout ecotype evolution and spatial ecology of fish in Swedish lakes.

Full announcement below, but don't hesitate to reach out for more information about applying or come find us at #AFS153.

Water currents are key for population connectivity of yellow perch in Lake Michigan..with short periods of highly dispersive currents being particularly informative.(study integrates genetic analyses / hydrodynamic models) @PurdueFNR @ILINSeaGrant @LampreyControl @PurdueBiolSci

[Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant @ILINSeaGrant]

Check out this adventurous bluegill from our acoustic telemetry study w/ @Shedd_Research! In a 15 day period, it swam throughout the South Branch & downtown portion of the Chicago River. Acoustic tags allow researchers to understand how fish respond to restoration initiatives.

Congrats to @SalazarKara for successfully defending her PhD dissertation this morning on "Exploring the role of environmental planning & community development in informing local government policies."

I’m not sure about the “powerhouses”bit….but I’m very excited to see this book out. It was really great working with Jim Diana on this. And, we are really appreciative of a huge number of colleagues for reviewing various chapters and helping us improve on this third edition.

[Shedd Research @SheddResearch]

@shedd_aquarium researchers, @HookLab and @ILINSeaGrant are excited to kick off our study to better understand how fish respond to different river restoration activities in the Chicago River. Last week, 80 fish were equipped with acoustic tags that allow us to track movements.
