Tom Dixon's Ph.D. Research pages
I carried out my Ph.D. research in Aquatic Molecular Toxicology (Investigating detoxification enzyme expression (esp. CYP1A) in the European flounder from polluted and pristine habitats.)
I carried out this research at the Institute of Aquaculture, University of Stirling (U.K.)
from 1999 - 2002Title:
'Molecular genetic studies of pollutant responses in the European flounder, Platichthys flesus.'
