The Science Show at Nord

We are a research group focused on fish and mussel immunity. We study the effect of stress and stressors on species such as salmon, lumpfish & blue mussel.

Check out our publication on how cohabitation with Atlantic salmon affects lumpfish brain. Results showed that interaction with salmon did not alter lumpfish growth, health scored or skin coloration. What about cortisol or dopamine levels in the brain?

3 months ago, Dr. Isabel Abihssira-García successfully defended her #PhD #thesis👩🏻‍🎓After a great discussion with 2 big experts on the #Microplastic field, Tamara Galloway & Martin Wagner, Isabel was rightfully given the title of #Doctor. We are now lucky to have her as #researcher

Today is International Women's Day ❤ So what better ocasion than this to applaud all those women who had to fight to earn a place among men in their job. That is the case of many women scientists and academics. Cheers to all of you!

😃Here is our freshly published paper! 🧫🔬📃If you want to know how imaging flow cytometry works and how to use it for analyzing the phagocytic activity of fish and mussel immune cells (including microplastic), take a look at this: https://t.co/bLjU2KafUw

[Isabel S. Abihssira-García @isabelabihssira]

Immune cells of Atlantic salmon can accumulate microplastic and translocate those particles from the intestine to other organs and tissues. Check out this study!

Why study lumpfish? Cyclopterus lumpus, also known as lumpsucker, is used in some fish farms as an alternative to pesticides to remove sea lice from salmon. Deepti Patel (Ph.D.) @deepi_mp has been focusing her work on understanding better the immunity of this species.

It's fun to work with these little Smarties when they teach you not to give up!! #lumpfish #cyclopteruslumpus #norduniversitet
