Did you know that fish blink? Perhaps even for some of the same reasons that humans do! Tune in to this week's episode to hear Zach talk with Drs. Brett Aiello and Tom Stewart about their recent project studying blinking behaviors in Mudskippers. They go into detail about the functional morphology and evolutionary biology of this fascinating and unique behavior.

Dr. Ambrose Jearld Jr. led an incredibly successful career in fisheries science and academic programming, and worked in predominantly white spaces for most of his life. Co-host Dr. Lian Guo spoke with Ambrose about his barriers and successes in building a career while Black, while working to further diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. Please celebrate Black History Month (and every month) by centering Black voices and experiences.

This week Kadie chats with Taylor Preul-Stimetz, a master's student at Montana State University. Taylor's research is working to identify phenotypic traits that predict the survival, growth, and reproductive performance of wild-origin westslope cutthroat trout reared in a conservation hatchery near the Flathead River, MT. Kadie and Taylor talk about the benefits of community college, where her interest in physiology began, and more!
Main point: Don't compare yourself or your progress to others.
If you would like to get in touch with Taylor, you can find her on LinkedIn, ResearchGate or via email.
If you would like to get ahold of Kadie, you can reach her on twitter @kbheinle.

Growling gurnards, drumming piranhas, calling toadfish – Did you know fish are one of the largest groups of sound-producing animals and have the greatest variety of specialized organs to make sounds? Tune in to hear Audrey Looby, a Ph.D. student with the University of Florida Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Department and Nature Coast Biological Station, discuss her innovative research on Gulf toadfish calling, intertidal soundscapes of a living and a hardened shoreline, and community-level impacts of anthropogenic noise pollution. Alongside a group of international collaborators, Audrey developed the FishSounds website – an online inventory of sound-producing fish species with recordings donated by researchers. Her review article associated with this project will be published in Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries later this year.
Main points: Acknowledge your biases in science and in life. Fish sounds are cool!

Tune in to hear Liam Kehoe discuss his master's research at the University of Florida (UF) to improve the management of Florida's stone crab fishery – one of the state's most valuable. He is leveraging bioeconomic and population dynamics models to provide managers with the right quantitative tools. This project is part of a collaborative effort between the Nature Coast Biological Station, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, UF Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Program, and Florida Sea Grant.
Main point: Keep your mind open and avoid bias.

On this episode, Anders Halverson talks to Dr. Joe Anderson of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife about fish restoration in the Elwha River, the site of one of the biggest and most significant dam removal projects in the United States. Since the dams were removed in 2014, salmon, steelhead, bull trout, and other fish have recolonized and adapted to habitat that had not been available to them for more than a century. Research on the changes in fish distribution and abundance, genetics, and life histories have already yielded several surprises and show just how resilient such systems can be.
