I’m Kamden. I’m a fisheries biologist in Minnesota. I primarily work in fisheries management, including stocking and population monitoring. I also conduct research on population dynamics and trophic ecology, or as I like to call it, #fishpuke!

Keywords in scientific articles! We're asked to list 5-10 keywords for our articles. But should these be words not already in the abstract and title? How do you decide what to put down?

President Donald Trump’s proposed 2026 budget would eliminate all federal funding for Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center and the other eight regional climate science centers, which Congress began establishing in 2008.
Scientists warn federal funding cuts could undermine walleye recovery in Minnesota
The Trump administration froze grant money awarded to the Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center in August and wants to cut its budget next year.

It’s all about that bass on Day 4 of #25DaysofFishmas - the Suwannee Bass (Micropterus notius), that is!

We head to the Florida Panhandle to find this lesser-known cousin of the largemouth bass who is like the quiet - but interesting - cousin at the black bass family holiday get-together.

Suwannee bass is one of at least 14 species of black bass - though we’re still discovering new ones (news.uga.edu/new-bass-spe...). Members of this group are mainly native to North America east of the Rockies, but have been introduced globally due to their popularity as sport fish #25DaysofFishmas

🎶It’s beginning to look a lot like #Fishmas🎶

There’s no better fish to kick off this year’s #25DaysofFishmas than the aptly-named Christmas darter (Etheostoma hopkinsi)! We get our road trip started down in the southeastern US with this small species of fish who has big holiday spirit all year long

Every year around Thanksgiving, I see tons of grad students post heartbreaking messages on social media about how their loved ones don’t understand or support their decision to study what seems like something pointless or silly.

Perhaps my American Scientist essay can help!

“Why Are We Funding This?”
Long-standing myths about “silly science” have contributed to the reckless slashing of government-supported research.
