Just another #MakoMonday… You might know that the Endangered Shortfin Mako is the fastest shark around, but did you know that they also have one of the largest brain-to-body ratios? #sharksnearme

Huge congratulations to the amazing Allison Dennert! Her award-winning publication highlighted the role of salmon in wildflower meadow ecosystem connectivity on the Central Coast 🐟🌸 Read it here: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.10… Raincoast Conservation Foundation SFU Biological Sciences

Check out the work my lab (@Jon_W_Moore), The Nature Trust of BC, First Nations, and other partners are doing to study salmon & estuary resilience to climate change on Vancouver Island! Featuring Phoebe Gross cbc.ca/radio/whatonea… SFU Science SFU Biological Sciences SFU Faculty of Environment

This was the culmination of 3 years of work and the help of dozens of people. It couldn't have been done without the advice, guidance, and support of my #salmonwatershedslab, Earth2Ocean Science, and SFU Biological Sciences colleagues! It's been an incredible and humbling journey. (4/5)

The Outreach & Engagement Committee is pleased to host our annual Biology Photo contest! Submit your photos to Peter Hollmann ([email protected]) by Friday October 27! Enjoy photos from 2022, for Science in Action. Previous Photo Contests can be found in our BISC Kudos page.

Are you interested in spatial planning to accelerate shark conservation? Do you have a case study or lessons to share? Are you going to SCB Marine Program's 7th International Marine Conservation Congress #IMCC7 Join our open symposium led by Dr Amanda Lombard and I. Abstract

This week is the North American Congress for Conservation Biology! The Palen Lab is volunteering and will be giving a talk about their work on cumulative impacts of renewable energy. SCB North America

Yesterday at #NACCB2024 Ira Sutherland presented the Palen Lab's work on strategic planning of renewable energy to limit cumulative impacts on the BC landscape. SCB North America #ConservationBiology

Applications are NOW OPEN for Smith Fellows conservation research fellowships beginning in 2025! View the Proposal Guidelines here: conbio.org/mini-sites/smi…

New op-ed from Wendy Palen and the Liber Ero fellows. "The new amendments to the IAA point clearly toward a regional approach by directing federal agencies to consider 'the cumulative effects of physical activities'”. Read more: policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/june…

The Palen Lab is looking for a GIS Analyst! See job posting below and share with interested individuals. #geospatial #ecology #conservation #RenewableEnergy

Congratulations to Elizabeth M Oishi for successfully defending her Masters yesterday! Beth has been an incredible member of the Côté lab (Isabelle M Côté) over the past few years and we cannot wait to see what she accomplishes in the future. SFU Biological Sciences
