Excited to share that our paper on Hsiungia pekingensis, a rare equine strongyle, is now published in the Journal of Helminthology!
Special thanks to my supervisors and collaborators for their support. Classical and molecular parasitology in harmony!

Congratulations to @sinamohtasebi.bsky.social for his 1st PhD publication 👏: A phylogenetic analysis of a rare equine strongyle and re-analysis of public nemabiome datasets to learn more about the distribution of the species doi.org/10.1017/S002...

Our remote fieldwork taught us how to band together as scientists Three early-career researchers thrown together on Sable Island, a treeless island in the North Atlantic, think others can learn from their experiences.

Very excited to finally share this! All of my remote fieldwork has taught me a lot, but there’s just something different about Sable

The first paper from my PhD is out in Parasitology! Using DNA metabarcoding, I show patterns of parasite infection in Sable Island horses!

It's open access, so go check it out!

We successfully held our Equine Parasitology Workshop at UCVM, bringing together DVM and grad students for an engaging day of learning and hands-on experience. The workshop covered everything from classic parasitology techniques to cutting-edge diagnostics like nemabiome analysis. 🐎🪱

Hi everyone, I’m Katie! I’m in my final year of a bachelors degree in Biological Sciences at UCalgary. I’m interested in wildlife biology and love getting involved in research projects within this field. I’m hoping to pursue grad school in the future!
