The Love Lab is very happy to welcome Natalie as an Industrial MITACS PDF partnering with Yellow Island Aquaculture Ltd (YIAL) and Drs. Christina Semeniuk and Daniel Heath of GLIER to study the impacts of the pre- and post-natal environment on optimal production in Chinook salmon. Natalie recently completed her PhD at the University of British Columbia on the impact of maternal stress on salmonid phenotypic variation and fitness. She is also leading a number of research projects in our lab in collaboration with MSc student Pauline Capelle examining the interactive impacts of the maternal and rearing environments on performance and fitness in Chinook salmon. Welcome to the lab Natalie!
