ECR Spotlight – Mohammad Ojaghi

Abstract

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Mohammad Ojaghi is an author on ‘ Hypoxia impairs blood glucose homeostasis in naked mole-rat adult subordinates but not queens’, published in JEB. Mohammad is a PhD student in the lab of Matthew Pamenter at Department of Biology, University of Ottawa, Canada, investigating metabolic adaptations to environmental stressors, particularly in hypoxia-tolerant species.
