MSc student at UCalgary 🇨🇦 UCVM Wildlife Health & Ecology 🦌 Studying caribou population genetics 🧬 (she/her)
Thrilled to share my third first-author paper from my master's work with @albrechts-h.bsky.social and @jeffcbowman.bsky.social - this time diving into ectoparasite community dynamics of North American red squirrels! 🐿️

Excited to announce the publication of the first chapter of my PhD in Biological Conservation! We evaluated individual behavioral variation and its implications for delineating intraspecific units for the conservation of caribou. Read more here:

🌟 Welcome to SWEEET! 🌟
We’re excited to introduce the Section Working for Equity in Ecology and Evolution Today (SWEEET), a section of @csee-scee.
The first paper from my PhD is out in Parasitology! Using DNA metabarcoding, I show patterns of parasite infection in Sable Island horses!
It's open access, so go check it out!
doi.org/10.1017/S003...
CSEE is now on Bluesky! We’ll be posting information about upcoming events, including our AGM, webinars and more, and news about the society. #Ecology #Evolution

Its about time i moved this list of animal behavior related job boards and listservs over here 🦋 It was made in 2020 so could probably use some updating. If you know of sites to add let me know! linktr.ee/animalbehavi...

Hi everyone! I’m a molecular ecologist and semi-recent PhD graduate from UAlberta, where I examined population structure and quantitative genetics in bighorn sheep. Now, as a postdoc at UCalgary, I’m using genomics to enhance an augmented breeding program for caribou in Jasper National Park.

Hi everyone! I'm Sina, a PhD candidate at the University of Calgary. My research focuses on equine gastrointestinal strongyle parasites, examining their molecular diversity and characterizing them using advanced techniques like nemabiome metabarcoding alongside traditional morphology.

Hi everyone, I’m Katie! I’m in my final year of a bachelors degree in Biological Sciences at UCalgary. I’m interested in wildlife biology and love getting involved in research projects within this field. I’m hoping to pursue grad school in the future!

Allow me to re-introduce myself! I'm a PhD candidate @ U Calgary working on caribou ecology, focusing on evaluating movement behaviour and habitat selection using GPS collar data in Western Canada. My general interests include applied conservation, animal behaviour, & taking sub-par wildlife photos

Hi Bluesky 🔵
Glad to appear in this new social zone! I'm Charlotte, working as a 3rd year Ph.D candidate at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in University of Calgary on woodland caribou genomics and microbiome in Western Canada. I'm interested about wildlife conservation and population ecology.
🌟 Hi everyone, excited to join the BlueSky community! I am a wildlife biologist interested in the little things that run the world (in this case, macroparasites, viruses, microbes). I am currently working on my PhD at the University of Calgary to investigate the gut microbiome of bighorn sheep 🐏

Hello! I'm Micky, a PhD Candidate at the University of Calgary studying the ecology and evolution of parasites in Sable Island horses using DNA metabarcoding. I spent 3 summers on a deserted island as a glorified poop picker and amateur horse photographer.

Hi, I’m Samantha! I’m a master’s student at @ucalgary.bsky.social studying the genetics of caribou 🦌 in the Chilcotin Mountains of BC, with a focus on using fine-scale population structure to inform conservation 🧬 #ConservationGenetics #WildlifeScience
