We are proud to share that our lab member, Soren Johnson, a third-year biology PhD student, was recently featured in UMSL Daily for his innovative research on cave-dwelling fish. The article highlights Soren’s fieldwork in Tabasco, Mexico, where he studies how populations of Poecilia mexicana adapt to varying light conditions and hydrogen sulfide levels within a cave system. His work offers valuable insights into evolutionary biology and environmental adaptation.
