ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Stefane Saruhashi is an author on ‘ Oxygen availability and oxygen delivery but not oxidative stress shape heat tolerance in diploid and triploid zebrafish larvae’, published in JEB. Stefane conducted the research described in this article while a Visiting graduate student in Wilco C. E. P. Verberk's lab at the Department of Animal Ecology and Ecophysiology, Radboud Institute of Biological and Environmental Sciences, The Netherlands. Stefane is now a PhD candidate in the lab of Brent J. Sinclair at the Department of Entomology, Cornell University, USA, investigating the evolved physiological mechanisms that enable ectothermic animals to tolerate and respond to thermal stress.
