ECR Spotlight – Hailey Parry

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. Hailey Parry is an author on ‘ Expanding endurance exercise physiology research models: Insights from animal migration’, published in JEB. Hailey conducted the research described in this article while a PhD Student in Andreas Kavazis's lab at Auburn University, USA. Hailey is now Assistant Professor at the School of Kinesiology, Louisiana State University, USA, investigating how the subcellular location of mitochondria influences their activity in skeletal muscle and how these mitochondrial pools are altered by metabolic pathologies.
