Funding update and "Thank you"

I wanted to take a minute to provide a brief update regarding our funding campaign for this project. Following a recent surge of support this week, we are almost 80% to our funding goal! Our funding campaign is set to end on February 3rd and I am hopeful that we can make the final push to our goal.

I also wanted to take a minute to offer my greatest thanks to everyone who has reached out and/or donated to support our work thus far. We are really hoping to bring this project to life and we could not do so without your help.

Since we have decided to extend our fundraising campaign by a few days, I will be making some adjustments to our timeline accordingly. I am looking forward to sharing my next update!

About This Project

Freshwater fish account for a quarter of the world’s vertebrate species and are critical to maintaining healthy ecosystems and supporting local communities. However, freshwater fish remain one of the most vulnerable taxa to climate change, with over 1/3 of species threatened with extinction. How will fish adapt and survive in response to climate change? We are attempting to answer this question by examining the underlying genetic variation that enables populations adapt to thermal stress.
