Rapid Evolution...not rapid enough ?

A very nice piece written by Etienne Plamondon Emond for Québec Science here.

​« On est vraiment dans l’inconnu. Un tel cocktail ne s’est jamais produit. On ne peut pas se référer à la librairie de fossiles » pour envisager l’avenir.

Studying Abroad

Kudos to Kelsey who made it in the McGil Reporter! Kelsey received a Graduate Mobility Award to travel to Panama and collect her field data in the Winter 2023. Her MSc research would not have been possible without this award

Museum Specimens

Shout-out to Anthony Howell, the curator in charge of the collections at the Redpath Museum. I donated to the Redpath Museum my entire collection of voucher specimens; over 3,000 specimens of small mammals we collected in my lab across all of Quebec since 2008! There's Jonathan Diamond's beavers in the lot too, some of those coming all the way from Nunavut. Each specimen is preserved as skeletal material (skull) and tissue samples stored in massive -80C freezers. This is a unique collection; I do not think there is anything like that anywhere else in the world. Fifteen years of sampling documenting evolution in action! Anthony organized it all and this collection is now available for study to the rest of the research community.
