Bass Chair in Fisheries and Aquaculture with UT at Austin, has produced about 140 peer-reviewed publications and currently focuses on studying how a female fish’s diet influences her egg composition, and in turn, how that affects the survival, metabolism and other traits of the developing larvae (babies) that get their first nutrition from the eggs.

Mote scientists have raised and released common snook ( Centropomus undecimalis) in fisheries enhancement studies for decades, using this species as a model to understand how to effectively enhance declining populations of wild sportfishes valuable to the Gulf of Mexico’s economies.įuiman, who holds the Perry R.

Lee Fuiman, Director of the Fisheries and Mariculture Laboratory at the Marine Science Institute of the University of Texas (UT) at Austin, will spend four of the next six months based at Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota, Florida to exchange knowledge related to his focus on larval fish ecology and physiological ecology.
