About The Lab

The Roa Lab at Cal State LA uses comparative physiology to understand the fundamental cellular mechanisms animals use during stress. Specifically, we use a marine animal model and inverted fluorescence microscopy to track changes in intracellular components associated with energy metabolism during exposure to pH stress. Students interested in imaging science, comparative physiology, cell signaling, and/or marine biology are encouraged to contact Dr. Roa directly.
