From Stream to Science: An Exclusive Tour of the NYSM Ichthyology Lab

Dive into the fascinating world of ichthyology with this rare, behind-the-scenes tour of the New York State Museum’s Fish Lab, led by Curator of Ichthyology Dr. Jeremy Wright.

Explore how cutting-edge genetic techniques, ecological surveys, and museum collections are reshaping our understanding of freshwater biodiversity in New York—and far beyond.

Learn how Dr. Wright’s research is uncovering hidden species, tracking the impacts of pollution and invasive species, and helping scientists better understand the diversity and evolution of fish communities across the region.

This off-site experience offers a unique chance to see where science meets discovery and to ask questions in an active research setting not normally open to the public.
