Still looking for a person to do a PhD in my lab at University of Québec in Chicoutimi (UQAC), starting between now and mai 2026. Feel free to contact me to inquire on the project and the condition of admission. A really neat project on influence of thermal barriers on brook trout genetic.

Absolutely devastated to hear about Jane Goodall's passing. She was a champion in the field and for women biologists. She will be sorely missed, but her memory will live on to inspire generations of biologists and conservationists.
