Anna Haukedal Andreassen
About
I am working on mechanisms and evolution of thermal tolerance in the Jutfelt Fish Ecophysiology lab. My project started in August 2019 and involves two main approaches to test what limits the upper thermal tolerance of vertebrates.
First, to uncover which phenotypic traits are important for survival and how the biology of ectotherms changes under the predicted climate challenges, I will characterise how life-history traits, metabolic rates, swim speed, thermal preference, and critical thermal maximum and minimum, vary between lines of the 8th generation of zebrafish selected for upper thermal limits.
Second, to answer whether the whole animal response to critical temperatures is caused by limitations in specific organ systems, I will quantify and map the timing of the central nervous and circulatory responses to critical temperatures.
My PhD supervisors were Fredrik Jutfelt, Christophe Pelabon, Florence Kermen and Timothy Clark.

Heat waves harm fish brains
In a ground-breaking study by Anna Andreassen and her team at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, the researchers investigated what happens to the brains of larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) during extreme heatwaves...
What goes on in the brain when it gets too hot?
Which organisms survive and which succumb when the climate changes? A small larval fish is providing surprising insight into how the brain reacts when the temperature rises.
Hva skjer oppe i hodet når det blir for varmt?
Hvilke organismer vil overleve og hvilke vil bukke under når klimaet endrer seg? En liten fiskelarve har gitt overraskende innsyn i hvordan hjernen reagerer når temperaturen stiger.
