@ichthyolojay @CanJZoology @_aecbum @GRIL_Limnologie @BiologieUdeM Congrats, Jeremy!!!

Last chapter of my PhD is “Just in”@CanJZoology! We tested how different parasites can affect swim performance in pumpkinseed sunfish through physiological or drag-induced effects! Check it out 🐟 @_aecbum @GRIL_Limnologie @BiologieUdeM

@graham_raby @erinmcstewart Awesome. Congrats!!

Proud of this paper from @erinmcstewart. Pretty unique dataset (I think) to have in situ (field based) CTmax for 20 different populations of the same species, spread across Ontario. Thanks to tons of help from conservation authorities and landowners.

@AEMcDonaldWLU Thanks, Allison ♥️

@AlexGLittle Very sorry Alex.

@graham_raby Thanks, Graham, I appreciate it ♥️

@AlexGLittle Sorry for your loss Alex. Beautiful obituary.
