🎉 If you've worked with Wildlife Science Centre caribou ecologist @melaniedickie.bsky.social, you won't be surprised she received the Governor General Gold Medal for Academic Excellence for her PhD research! Nor will you be surprised by the Taylor Swift reference.

When your statistical model "fits the data well" ...

I thought exactly the same many, many times. Reviewers entirely ignore the methodological part of the paper and take its results at face value, but they will debate the "framing" of it in every little detail.

We tend to think that we understand how urbanization impacts biodiversity, but our knowledge is based almost solely on research from temperate systems. This creates strong biases. Wonderful new work by ‪@elliediamant.bsky.social‬ in @cp-trendsecolevo.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

Screenshot from the 338 website showing the Kelowna writing highlighted in yellow and in the next column “toss up LPC/CPC”

Screenshot of 338 website showing federal parties down the left-hand side and three columns towards the right hand side showing the results from 2019 2021 and projected results. CPC projected results 46% plus -8%, LPC projected results 44% plus or -8%.

Kelowna federal riding is now rated as “Toss up” on 338. This is huge! 🤩 You can really feel the energy building - so many volunteers, people excited to vote - it’s within reach Kelowna!! Let’s go!

I am currently looking for an MSc student to join my research group for September 2025 to investigate moose habitat selection in the context of apparent competition in Ontario's Far North. Please share and contact me for further details!

America Is Sleeping on a Powerful Defense Against Airborne Disease Treating clean indoor air as a public good would have protected Americans against more than COVID-19.

Five years on. Millions dead. COVID effectively endemic. The big story is how we are STILL in denial about airborne transmission of respiratory diseases. Good job, libertarians.

NEW PAPER: looking into the erosion of southern mountain caribou migrations. Over 35 years, migration distances shrank 15-25%, and elevational migrations are collapsing. Habitat loss, not weather, likely the main culprit. A major conservation challenge ahead.

Canadians in solidarity with Stand Up for Science.
I signed. The assault on science in Canada under the conservative Harper regime was not as extreme as the MAGA one, but came from the same desire to prevent scientists from speaking truth to power.
