200 - How Hatcheries Affect Salmon Epigenetics, with...

The Fisheries Podcast ·

2022/12/18

In the last few decades, epigenetics has revolutionized the fields of ecology and evolution by showing that environment can interact with the genome itself, driving changes in gene expression. Sometimes these epigenetics can even be heritable. And that has enormous importance for fish released from hatcheries as well as the wild fish they interact with. In this episode, Clare Venney and Raphael Bouchard talk to Anders Halverson about their research with Atlantic Salmon. If you want to get in touch

197 - A Review of Children’s Literature

The Fisheries Podcast ·

2022/11/20

In this episode Nick goes solo and reviews a handful of children's books about fish and fishing. He comes to the conclusion that, at least of the titles his family owns, kid's books about fish and fishing don't portray many successful outings, don't resemble actual fish species, and/or many don't have any underlying science-y teach-ables. Nick's collection is far from complete and he does give a overview of two books that he is hoping to get soon. Enjoy! Main point: Read to your children! If you
