Fun podcast on fish research

"What do the arctic charr, parasites in fish, fishing quota, a juvenile Atlantic cod and the flounder have in common? These are all topics in a podcast hosted by a group of former and current doctoral students at the University of Iceland, which is aimed at the general public."

No red blood cells? No problem. Icefish, meet the Asian noodlefish https://news.northeastern.edu/2026/01/01/asian-noodlefish-red-blood-cells/

"Antarctic Icefish are famous for living without red blood cells, but they are not alone. A species of needle-shaped, warm-water fish also lacks #hemoglobin and red blood cells. Like #icefish, its veins are filled with translucent white blood... #noodlefish adults retain juvenile features... In many other #fish, juveniles don’t need to make red blood cells because they absorb oxygen through their skin"

Thriving Antarctic Ecosystems Found in Wake of Recently Detached Iceberg https://schmidtocean.org/thriving-antarctic-ecosystems-found-in-wake-of-recently-detached-iceberg/

"team on board #SchmidtOceanInstitute’s R/V Falkor (too) rapidly pivoted their research plans to study an area that was, until last month, covered by ice... they observed the #DeepSea for 8 days and found flourishing ecosystems at depths as great as 1300m. Their observations include large #corals and #sponges supporting an array of animal life, including #icefish, giant #SeaSpiders, and #octopus"
