Former @uwindsor.bsky.social post-doc Dr. Britney Firth presenting our labs work on preserving genetic diversity for endangered Atlantic salmon on the east coast of Canada - great collaboration with Fisheries and Oceans Canada

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

Look forward to giving a seminar on our lab’s efforts to increase the fitness of animals for conservation reintroduction efforts - @sebiology.bsky.social #sebconference @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social

Made it to the @sebiology.bsky.social conference in Antwerp - look forward to sharing some of our lab’s research regarding the improvement of captive breeding for conservation efforts using evolutionary & ecological principles with physiological/genetic tools

Massive congrats to our very own @uwindsor.bsky.social @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social Olivia Galloway who successfully defended her Masters thesis today focused on conservation efforts for Lake Sturgeon and has an environmental science job starting in a week!

Anyone else having fun with final exams? My lab cart is coming in hand @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social
first year biology final exam day! Good luck to all of the students!

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?

Great to see our @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social Honours thesis research students representing us so well at the Ontario Biology Day hosted this year at Carleton University - both presented important work related to conservation captive breeding research

I look forward to seeing my colleague @dkashian and deliver a seminar for her department at @waynestate next week discussing bi-national efforts to reintroduce aquatic species in the Great Lakes - wayne-edu.zoom.us/j/9804301269...

@uwindsor.bsky.social grads representing today at the @scas-scsa.bsky.social conference @ibiouwindsor.bsky.social

Lots of @uwindsor.bsky.social fisheries and aquatic scientists at the SCAS conference

Hoping to see many of you at the SCAS conference in couple of weeks in Hamilton, ON, Canada to discuss all things fishy, aquatic, limno, etc

Our lab continues to examines ways to mitigate the environmental mismatch issues that captive bred animals (intended for reintroduction) face - examining effects of tank colour on phenotype for salmon conservation

Just a quick note to my fishy, limno and aquatic science folks, I am pleased to announce I will be serving as the co-Editor in Chief for Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences and look forward to connecting with many of you on this platform! Here is the link:

It was so great to have @bobmontgomerie.bsky.social visit us at @uwindsor.bsky.social to connect and regale us with an overview of his current projects

Amazing night at the @uwindsor.bsky.social Birds and Beers event with Bob Montgomerie
