Dr. La Point’s primary research and teaching interests include contaminant effects on freshwater aquatic communities, specifically in how metals and organic contaminants affect benthic population dynamics and freshwater fisheries.  His particular focus is on experimental ecosystems (“mesocosms”) to understand how aquatic organisms respond to the multiple chemicals found in surface waters.  Recently, he has begun research on issues of water reuse.
