He has contributed significantly to our understanding of the evolutionary origins of fish biodiversity in northern post-glacial lakes of Canada, the United States and Iceland. His research on autotomy or self-amputation is entirely supported by undergraduates. He teaches in the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of Guelph focusing on courses about aquatic environments, evolutionary ecology and ecological methods.
