The Scientist Social Club talked to the author and her dad, Chris Miller. 

Overfishing is the biggest factor driving these species toward extinction, researchers conclude from a new study.

Join The Scientist on March 19 to discuss Lulu Miller’s book about a determined taxonomist whose life and work constitute a fable illustrating the hazards of categorization.

In most vertebrates, the absence of adaptive immunity would be catastrophic, but in some deep-sea angler fish species, it enables their “wild” and “wacky” mating habits.

The taxonomist described more than 800 species of fish.

The decades-old signature of nuclear testing can reveal the ages of organisms, or even individual cells.

Rather than making its own light, a shallow-water marine fish gets all the tools that it needs for bioluminescence production from eating tiny, glowing crustaceans.

This 1-centimenter-long frogfish is one of the many subjects of marine photographer Richard Smith.

The Penn State University scientist was known for her work on fish’s perception of pain.
