Biography
Dr. Fleming, received his PhD from the university of Memorial University of Newfoundland. Currently He is working as a Professor in Waterloo University. The research in my laboratory addresses fundamental questions about the way in which animals respond to their environment (phenotypically and evolutionarily) and aims to provide a foundation for the understanding of central issues in biological conservation and management. It focuses on the evolutionary and behavioural ecology of fishes, with an emphasis on breeding system evolution, life history diversity, phenotypic plasticity, maternal effects and survival strategies. We have worked extensively on the management and conservation of wild fish populations, including the restoration of endangered and threatened populations, and interactions between aquaculture and wild fish. A range of scientific approaches are used, from controlled laboratory experiments to large-scale field experiments, as well as more theoretical studies.
