This week Kadie chats with Dr. Peyton Thomas, a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Colorado Boulder with the Arctic Rivers Project and a professional trail runner. Peyton received her Ph.D. in Biology and Marine Biology in 2022 where she studied fish muscle physiology and potential adaptative responses under projected end-of-century temperature scenarios and extreme hypoxia. For her post-doc, she studies growth projections of Arctic fishes under mid-century climate change across sub-Arctic and Arctic watersheds. Peyton is also a member of the Patagonia trail running team and Protect Our Winters. Throughout the interview, we talk about Peyton's research, how she uses her running career to bring light to environmental issues, and how science can be a form of advocacy. Check it out!
And remember: you have great ideas and you are valid.
If you'd like to get in touch with Peyton, you can email her at Peyton.Thomas@colorado.edu; find her on Instagram @ptcruisin22; or check out her website: www.peyton-thomas.com
