Personal/Professional Information & Interests

Field of Interest: Fisheries Conservation Genetics, Population Genetics, Hatchery Management

I apply genetic principles and techniques to questions of fisheries management and ecology. I am currently conducting numerous studies using molecular genetic markers to assess genetic population structure, to identify species and their hybrids, and to determine the source population or parentage of individuals. My "species list" includes: walleye, northern pike, muskies, rainbow trout, brook trout, yellow perch, and fathead minnows. I also am concerned with applying genetic principles to the management of hatchery programs. See our lab web page for more details.
