I have specialised in animal physiology and endocrinology. My current research activities are on the role of the thyroid gland and thyroid hormones. Besides the thyroid gland, the digestive tract is a favourite organ system. I am a fundamental scientist who believes new and novel concepts can be learned by studying successful vertebrates such as fish. Aquaculture, aquatic toxicology, and human disease models are important contexts of my research.
