That's a wrap! Today I successfully defended my MSc thesis! Lots of challenges and accomplishments these past two years!
Great opportunity to get involved in research at Acadia and explore the Maritimes!
Funded MSc positions in a collaborative mosquito surveillance project based in my lab starting this spring! Must love being asked "what are you fishing for?" 5 x daily by friendly strangers :) Please RT or contact me! @AcadianESCanada @AcadiaBio @ESC_Students @csz_scz

[2/2] This summer we are looking for volunteers to help us collect water samples from across the province to help catalogue where these species live. Interested in helping out? Contact [email protected].

[1/2] Did you know that there are over 20 species of mosquitoes in Nova Scotia? Using traces of DNA in the environment, we can target and identify which mosquito larvae are present in a body of water, such as ponds, roadside ditches, and tires.
