1st week back to school & my thoughts are with the 300K grad students and postdocs struggling to make ends meet, to find housing, afford food, pay tuition, all while solving the greatest problems facing Canada. @cafreeland @JustinTrudeau we must do better #SupportOurScience

Canada has the 2nd lowest proportion of its populations holding doctoral degrees among G7 nations, and well below the OECD average. It is time to #SupportOurScience

@VirginieMarque2 @ELE_ETHWSL samples for #eDNA from the fjords' (sub)surface to unravel fish diversity. The idea is to understand how glacial retreat and rapidly increasing temperatures will affect #biodiversity in fjord ecosystems #GreenFjord

Replying to @loic_pellissier
@loic_pellissier, me & crew teamed up to create the first massive online open course on #eDNA analysis. Spread the word to anyone interested in learning more about eDNA. Accessible to all levels, but target audience is those with very little to no experience.
If you want to learn how to perform environmental DNA #eDNA analyses for Sensing the Diversity of Life and Assessing #Ecosystem Health Register to our online course starting on September on @edXOnline edx.org/learn/biology-life-s…

Research grants like the NSERC Discovery Grant, have stagnated in the past 5 years, despite 17% inflation in the economy! 😱 Increased pay for grad students and postdocs can only be achieved by increasing the value of research grants, along with scholarships and fellowships.
