Had an incredible time at PISCeS eDNA Conference conference! Thank you to Dr. Robert Hanner and @Tzitziki_LoezaQ for putting together such an engaging and exciting event! It was amazing to be in the presence of such driven individuals pushing the boundaries of eDNA research. 🐟🦇🪲🧬🏞️🦐

Two cancellations from Air Canada in two days and stranded in Toronto. Thankful for my friends in the city, but conferences are exhausting... I want to go home!

Well this took an interesting, personal twist #eDNA wsj.com/articles/missi…

If Canada wants to be a leader in R&D it needs to do something to ensure it’s labour source isn’t worrying about eating and paying the bills. Graduate students contribute to the expansion of knowledge, but Canada won’t pay them a living wage.

Volunteering with LPS has been such a rewarding and enriching experience in my scientific career! I loved communicating with my pen-pal, and introducing them to the amazing world of ecology and eDNA 🧬🐟. An amazing way to hone those #scicomm skills too! 📝

After a bit of tinkering, my new website is finally live! I'll be adding things periodically (a blog coming soon 📰), but I wanted to finally get it out to the world! 🤓👋 rinaguxholli.ca

Please RT! I'm looking to get short statements from queer marine scientists & biologists (& related fields) about their experiences being queer in their fields. Any level of experience or career is okay, anonymous statements are possible. DM me here on Twitter or email me!

The reality of being a graduate student in Canada. Here is Masters and PhD income after paying for rent and tuition in major Canadian cities… #gradschoolprobs #gradschool #phd #phdlife #academia #supportourscience

The job hunt has put me in dire need of some comedic relief... this is the best I could come up with.

I had the pleasure of writing a piece about my MSc work for the CMOS Bulletin a few months ago. So happy to see the piece is finally out (in English and French)! Check it out 👋🧬🐟✍️

Canada’s two largest metros, Toronto and Montreal, see six trains per day in each direction that take a little more than five hours. Madrid and Barcelona are the same distance and see 35 trains per day each way, taking as little as 2 hours and 30 minutes. Canada deserves better.

Something that I wish all #science #undergraduates knew: Cite a paper for its own findings (simply put, something in that paper's Results section). DO NOT cite a paper for something that it cites another paper for. Go to that other paper, read its Results, and cite that one.

One of my daughters just asked: "Should I use an Oxford comma?" Yes! Of course. Always. It makes writing clearer, more readable, and logical. #TeamOxfordComma

Them: How’s the paper coming along? Me: I have the bare bones of it, just need to add a few things. The paper…

not now babe I’m memorizing the cutthroat trout phylogenetic tree
