Researchers hope insights into low-light vision of Antarctic icefish can promote better understanding of human health
Feb. 27, 2023—By Tatum Lyles Flick, Evolutionary Studies communications volunteer consultant Though many researchers have considered how fish survive in extreme cold, using everything from antifreeze glycoproteins that protect cells to not producing hemoglobin, few have taken a molecular approach to evaluate how they are able to see in such conditions.
