John Lumsden was the first scientist to find the viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) in Lake Ontario in the Spring of 2 5. Along with Prof. Roz Stevenson, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Lumsden is processing infected fish tissues and developing diagnostic tests for the emerging in collaboration. He and Moccia are also examining the impact to the fish farming industry and looking at implications to natural and farmed fish populations if the virus continues to spread.
