معرفی
Scott P. Kelly is a Full Professor in the Department of Biology at York University. His research focuses on the regulation of salt and water balance in aquatic animals, emphasizing the endocrine system's role in linking environmental changes to physiological responses, and the permeability properties of occluding junctions (tight junctions in vertebrates, septate junctions in invertebrates). He uses model organisms such as mayfly nymphs, sea lampreys, teleost fishes, and amphibians to study processes like epithelial permeability responses to environmental/systemic changes, endocrine regulation of paracellular permeability, and the impact of salinization on freshwater organisms.
Dr. Kelly prioritizes trainee development in his research program, ensuring intellectual growth and involvement. His work bridges Animal Physiology, Endocrinology, and Environmental Biology, addressing critical ecological and physiological questions in aquatic systems.
