معرفی
Mads Andersen is a Research Fellow in the Department of Biology at Carleton University. His primary affiliation is with the Faculty of Science, focusing on comparative physiology and thermal tolerance mechanisms in insects. He holds a B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. in Biology from Aarhus University, Denmark, specializing in ecophysiology and cardiorespiratory function, with further research on neuromuscular and renal function.
His research investigates thermal tolerance limits and their variation across species and within species such as Drosophila melanogaster. Key areas include ion balance regulation, muscle physiology, and neurophysiology, employing techniques like electrophysiology, pharmacology, molecular biology, and genetics. His work bridges ecological and physiological scales to understand organismal adaptability.
