John Majoris

John Majoris's research examines how variation in early life traits affects dispersal and population dynamics in marine ecosystems. He focuses on the larval stage of coral reef fishes, a critical period that influences survival, recruitment and connections between populations. By studying larval biology and dispersal, his work informs conservation strategies to sustain marine biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. His broader interests include marine ecology, animal behavior, sensory biology and aquaculture, with an emphasis on how animals adapt to and interact with their environments.
