Very excited to see our paper featured in a great Outside JEB article called "Mangrove killifish are stressed for success" by Angelina Dichiera !🐠 Find it in the latest issue of Journal of Experimental Biology! The Company of Biologists journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22…

These brook trout fry (4 weeks post-hatch) have been incubated at +4C above ambient, which has ranged from 8-14C this winter season. We are now looking at larval CTmax and how varying winter thermal regimes impact thermal tolerance 🌡️

On #InternationalWomensDay, read about how newts in a jar uncovered the trailblazing first woman prof in UBC Science Dr. Gertrude May Smith. Dr. Smith's daughter @UBCmedicine prof Dr. Muriel J. Harris is avail. to discuss her mother’s life and career. focus.science.ubc.ca/ubcs-trailblaz…

Canada knows the importance of investing in research, but there haven't been any new investments in grad students and postdocs in over two decades. We're looking to Budget 2024 to fix that🤞#SupportOurScience

#Budget2024 💰 makes the largest investment in 20+ years for grad students & postdocs! It will support financial needs, boost mental well-being, allow focus on research, & promote diversity by easing barriers for underrepresented groups. 🎉💪🏽#SOSBudget2024

The funding in #Budget2024 was only possible due to the community surrounding us. We've scored a historic win for grad students & postdocs, ⬆️ financial aid, well-being & research focus. Thanks to everyone pushing for a brighter, inclusive future in research! #SOSBudget2024 🌟

New paper alert! Intraspecific variation in thermal performance curves for early development in Fundulus heteroclitus onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Check out the outstanding artwork by @MadisonEarhart highlighting the comprehensive work on the thermal biology of killifish embryos by Tess B Such a pleasure to work with this amazing team!

Great job by the graduate students who spent the day doing public outreach on our new data about the effects of road salt on salmon during early development. Spoiler alert - environmentally relevant exposures are super dangerous especially right after fertilization ☹️

Please join us in welcoming UBC-Zoology’s newest TT-EL Faculty member: Stella Lee! 🙌 ✨ Stella will be primarily teaching BIOL 363 Animal Physiology UBC Biology Learn more about Stella: zoology.ubc.ca/article/welcom… UBC Science

Super pleased that my perspectives paper on the Fry Paradigm has now been published in the 50th anniversary edition of the Fish Physiology series! This link should give free access to the paper for the next 50 days kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2…

Super cool paper looking at mechanisms of plasticity

New paper looking at interactive effects of environmental stressors during early development in killifish (open access link below)

One of the oddities of academia is having two New Years: one in January and one in September. CSZ-SCZ kicks off '24-'25 with an interview (bilingual!) with new student councillor Emma Flatt of SchulteLab. blog.csz-scz.ca/2024/09/04/mee… Credits to Alannah Grant & Kevin Duclos

Assistant Professor opportunity in Integrative Organismal Biology, broadly interpreted, UBC Zoology. Come join a friendly, broad, and excellent community of folks interested in all aspects of animal biology. Views aren't bad either! 12 days left to apply! academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/28155

Job alert! 🚨 We're hiring a tenure track ecologist at Mount Royal University (in Calgary, Canada)! Come work with me (and all the other people here who I think are great)! mtroyalca.hua.hrsmart.com/hr/ats/Posting…

Same trait, different genes: pelvic spine loss in three brook stickleback populations in Alberta, Canada doi.org/10.1093/evlett… New work published in Evolution Letters by Jon Mee and undergraduate researchers at Mount Royal University.

Thanks very much to Fisheries and Oceans for the long term support of this important program working to protect Pacific salmon. Sarah Alderman UofGResearch, UofG News, @UofG Integrative Biology
