200 - How Hatcheries Affect Salmon Epigenetics, with Clare Venney and Raphael Bouchard

<p>In the last few decades, epigenetics has revolutionized the fields of ecology and evolution by showing that environment can interact with the genome itself, driving changes in gene expression. Sometimes these epigenetics can even be heritable. And that has enormous importance for fish released from hatcheries as well as the wild fish they interact with. In this episode, Clare Venney and Raphael Bouchard talk to Anders Halverson about their research with Atlantic Salmon.</p> <p>If you want to get in touch with Clare or Raphael, you can reach them on Researchgate <a href='https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Clare-Venney'>here</a> and <a href='https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Raphael-Bouchard-2192744367'>here</a>.
