Congratulations to Pauline who successfully defended her Master’s thesis entitled “Interactive effects of pre- and post-natal stressors on Chinook salmon performance and fitness”. Pauline’s thesis focused on manipulating a maternal stress signal (at the egg stage) and measuring subsequent offspring performance and fitness to test for adaptive maternal effects and environmental matching. Her project was highly integrative and has important implications in the context of the effects of climate change on wild populations, and for aquaculture practices. Pauline was co-supervised by Dr. Christina Semeniuk, and her collaborative fieldwork took place at YIAL. The Love and Semeniuk Labs are very proud of Pauline’s accomplishments!
