#ScienceSunday - Did you know that pharmaceutical pollutants in our waterways can have a disturbing impact on the social behaviour of fish? 🐠 Monash scientists found that exposing a group of mosquitofish to fluoxetine (commonly marketed as Prozac™) disrupted their food consumption and frequency of aggressive interactions. Interestingly, it did not alter the behaviour of solitary fish... 🤔suggesting that social context may be an important factor influencing the ecological impacts of chemical pollutants on wildlife. 💡 Discover more at the link in our bio! 🔝

“During my Master of Environment and Sustainability, I attended the United Nations: COP24. Being on the global stage taught me the complexity of these international negotiations. My time in Katowice has given me a new understanding of how science and other knowledge can become international policy.” . Discover Tahnee’s story at the link in our bio! #HumansofMonash 🌏🤝🔬
