John is a Senior Lecturer in Marine and Freshwater Biology at the University of Melbourne and is passionate about fish biology. John works in both marine and freshwater systems investigating how animals respond to environmental change on contemporary and evolutionary time scales. He is keenly interested in the impacts of, and adaptations to, fishery activity, natural and human-induced flow variability, and rapid climatic change. John asks questions at different levels of biological organisation, ranging from individuals to assemblages, using field-based and experimental techniques.
John is a well-respected teacher and coordinates undergraduate courses in marine ecology and animal biology. He leads a vibrant research lab of PhD, Masters and Honours students and together they ask fundamental and applied questions relevant to Australian and international fish and fisheries.
