Animals face high levels of oxidative stress due to anthropomorphic increased in pollutants in their environment. We are using zebrafish, lamprey, killifish, mussels, and crabs as a model species to extend the Biotic Ligand Model to chronic metal exposures (Cu) and to biochemical & genomic endpoints.
