Abstract Review Adventures in oxygen metabolism $
Peter W. Hochachka led a grand life of science adventure and left as his legacy a whole new field—biochemical adaptation. Oxygen was at the core of Peter’s career and his laboratory made major contributions to our understanding of how animals deal with variation in oxygen availability in many forms....
