There is nothing quite like seeing your city from the water! And so much room for investments to make travel by water a bit more enticing in #yeg. #yegrivervalley #northsaskachewnariver

Still coming down from the trip of a lifetime, #flyfishing in the southern Yukon with @foodafieldpod. Highly recommend exploring north of the 60th parallel if you ever have the chance! #exoloreyukon #airnorth

Notorious and destructive: the invasive spotted lanternfly made an appearance on @nbcsnl this weekend. 😂 We really do want you to smash this one on sight.

@HLockeSTEM Chiming in Canada. I’d say it’s neither the exception, nor the rule. It’s completely possible to have an undergrad-led (and meaningful) active research program. Though the pace of “output” is very different from R1, so that can make it tough to secure the big grants.

Dr. Deepa Pureswaran (@NRCan and @UNB) and I (@UNBC) are looking for a grad student interested in bark beetle pheromone communication and evolution.

The project scope will be tailored to the graduate level of the student.

Please contact us if interested. And please pass along.

@katiemarti I’ll bring all the nerdery right to you in July!

@katiemarti And that’s what yoga is all about 😂

@MelissaHillsPhD I also heard from a student today and it made my day. It was a little less lofty. More like “thanks for making a topic I don’t like actually tolerable”, but I took it as a win.

[Leah Flaherty @lflahert]

@GailVazOxlade Been looking for my next read! Done!

@KirkwoodLab Northern blazing star in Alberta, maybe? Not sure if this advanced from research to operational.

[Leah Flaherty @lflahert]

@MitacsCanada @CKuziemsky Wonderful news. Looking forward to hearing more!
