Our Small Grants Programme has supported some wonderful projects over the years. This year, we want to introduce you to the people working on the projects as well! Ravi Jambhekar & Saskya Van Nouhuys are working on the effects of extreme weather events on butterflies in the city!

Today we celebrated Ella Martin submitting the first paper from her PhD. Congratulations! ⁦UTM Biology⁩ ⁦University of Toronto EEB⁩

The Centre for Urban Environments Post-Doctoral Fellowship University of Toronto is being offered again this year. If you are interested in joining the EvoEco Lab & Ctr Urban Enviros U of T Mississauga to work on urban evolutionary ecology, please DM or email me. Full apps due Dec 1. Pls RT utm.utoronto.ca/cue/initiative…

Important news from Marc Johnson Ella Martin's PhD Appraisal Seminar will happen on Feb 7, 2024 & Lucas Albano 's PhD Exit Seminar is scheduled on Feb 8, 2024 Details on the posters Join us in wishing them both good luck!

Check out our new paper in Molecular Ecology "Does urbanisation lead to parallel demographic shifts across the world in a cosmopolitan plant?" Thanks to all the GLUE collaborators we were able to investigate #urban #evolution at a global scale. doi.org/10.1111/mec.17… Bonus cartoon :

Our latest paper by University of Toronto EEB PhD student Ella Martin & undergrad Samer El-Galmady shows that socioeconomic variation across a city (Toronto) unexpectedly alters the ecology & evolution of predator-prey interactions. @drake thanks for letting us use your place! Ecology Letters

Congratulations to University of Toronto EEB PhD student @dmurraystoker whose latest paper "Mosaic of local adaptation between white clover and rhizobia along an urbanization gradient" just came out in Journal of Ecology besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…

Congratulations to University of Toronto's latest PhD Dr. David Murray-Stoker (@dmurraystoker), who defended his thesis in brilliant fashion today. He got to celebrate signing the legacy wall with his mom looking on proudly. Well done Dr. DMS!

Congratulations Dr. Sophie Breitbart (⁦Sophie Breitbart @[email protected]⁩), who successfully defended her Ph.D. in ⁦University of Toronto EEB⁩ at ⁦University of Toronto⁩ yesterday! #urbanevolution is richer because of your work on milkweeds and its insects

One of the most beautiful things I've ever experienced #TotalSolarEclipse2024

Congrats to Irtaqa Arif who just published her 1st paper: "A meta-analysis of the carcinogenic effects of particulate matter and PAHs". She provides compelling evidence that air pollution elevates cancer incidence and mortality & rates may be increasing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Meet Nehal Naik urban biologist extraordinaire and a #PhD student in University of Toronto EEB University of Toronto. Nehal is studying how roads and vehicles affect the movement of pollinators and plant reproduction, using City of Mississauga as a global model. 1/3

Have you noticed the little white buckets with flowers that are placed around the city of Mississauga? UofT Biology student, Nehal, is currently using them to collect data for her research! Check out this thread to learn more!

'How can we make this better?' Finding links between pollinators, plants and the effects of urbanization utm.utoronto.ca/main-news/how-… So cool Nehal Naik!

📰 PhD Student and President of the Biology Graduate Student Society, Nehal Naik, recently had her research highlighted in the UTM News! 🌟 Read the article here: utm.utoronto.ca/main-news/how-…. Well done, Nehal!
