Great talk today by @veronicagroves.bsky.social at the @sebiology.bsky.social regarding the use of surrogates to study at-risk fishes - working with imperilled fishes always important but has its challenges

Great to have the first year @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social class (BIOL1111 - Biodiversity) visit the Freshwater Restoration Ecology Centre to learn first hand about research regarding restoring habitat and species at risk fishes - students enjoyed the hands on experience at the end of the year

We are assessing pictures from @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social MSc student study on the effects of tank colour on Chinook salmon fry - here you can see same age fry from white tank (left) and black (right) tank - can you spot the difference?

Thanks to @j-reid.bsky.social we had a great showing for @cdnsciencepub.bsky.social journals including CJFAS - look forward to the next @scas-scsa.bsky.social meeting co-hosted with our colleagues at @iaglr.bsky.social
Although weather and flight cancellations put a damper on the CJFAS party (sorry @not-klaatu.bsky.social 😢) we still had a blast at @scas-scsa.bsky.social. Thanks to my co-EICs for putting in some booth time @pitcherlab.bsky.social
