WOW! I had a great weekend at OE3C presenting my research and meeting so many incredible people studying amazing topics! Thank you to the organizing committee for putting on a wonderful conference🌱🪲🧪

Congratulations to my advisor, Dr. Frances Stewart!

A wonderful weekend of exploring Yellowknife and field prep with my summer field team (+ friends). Next stop fieldwork!!

To cluster wildlife cameras or not? Recent research suggests Yes! Check out: Laura Stewart’s thesis with WildCo Lab in the N.W.T: open.library.ubc.ca/soa/cIRcle/col… And this recent study (Palencia et al., 2024) in BES: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

It's here. Spring surveys confirmed the presence of #WhiteNoseSyndrome in Alberta in Little Brown Myotis captured in the badlands along the Red Deer River, the largest known bat hibernation area in the province. The full story can found on our webpage: albertabats.ca.

visited the Sahtú region last week to meet with community members in relation to our projects! I always love visiting this region, the culture and landscape always take my breath away 😊

Cameras fixed in place alongside NWT rivers for years offer a snapshot of the extraordinary drop in water level since 2022. Take a look. cabinradio.ca/191436/news/en…

1. Great Slave Lake Located in the Northwest Territories, Great Slave Lake is 614 metres deep. It is the deepest lake in North America and the ninth-deepest lake in the world. Among the Dene, the lake is called Tu Nedhé and Tucho. 🧵2/9

Full post over on 🟦,🌤️ but... I'm beyond proud to announce Christine Dunbar's (Christine Dunbar (she/her)) Women in Science Hypatia award (Laurier Biology 💜𓅪💛), AND that Amaan Leacock is joining the #WILDlab as a thesis student this Fall! Well done Christine, and welcome Amaan!

Amidst the ashes, life finds a way Just like the community of Jasper, Jasper National Park's wildlife will rebound from this crisis. In the face of flames, the extraordinary instincts of wildlife, like bears and elk, guide them to safety.

The #WILDlab is so very proud of Christine for her Weston award! Well done Christine Dunbar (she/her)!!

super excited to get back into the field! this time at Daring Lake, NWT. 🌱🐾

I’m excited to announce that I’ve started as an Assistant Professor at Lakehead University! I’m looking for two PhD students to join my new lab. If you are interested in investigating how disturbance affects caribou in Northern Ontario, please apply! And please spread the word!

and just like that my fieldwork in the tundra has come to an end! the trip of a lifetime full of laughs, caribou, and cloudberries!

Honoured to be a recipient of the Laurier Centre for Women in Science (WinS) Hypatia award! I hope I can inspire other women in the same way that I have been inspired by the fierce, brave women in stem that came before me 🥼🤎
