Finally back to getting our hands dirty on the #fishDip project by setting up a lab in the garage with Tiffany 🐟🐟🐟 . . . Marine Institute, Memorial University Memorial University @MEOPAR_NCE

It’s not often I can say that Darwin and I share something in common... #science

We're happy to officially announce that our Annual Training and Scientific Meetings are going virtual! 💻While things will look a little different, we're excited to connect and explore the potential of this new format. meopar.ca/news/our-2020-…

Make sure you check out mine, and all of the AMAZING videos submitted for this year's science video competition! Good work everyone! Don't forget to vote!

Honoured to have come third in the first science video competition held by MEOPAR!!! I can’t stress enough how amazing all the video entries are, please check them out! Congrats to everyone, job well done!

Extracted, mounted and imaged my first larval smelt (osmerus mordax) today! This smelt was 11.6 mm long with an otolith radius of just under 0.03 mm!!! GMEALab @MEOPAR_NCE Marine Institute, Memorial University Memorial University

Any tips on how to proceed when a co-author starts slacking? These growth curves won’t plot themselves, Tina! 🐈 (P.S. meet my new cat Tina) @MEOPAR_NCE Marine Institute, Memorial University #CatsOfTwitter #youcandoit #gradschool #thegrind

Tina sleeping on the job yet again... where can I hire good help? #CatsOfTwitter #gradschool #worstassistantever

Mesopelagic fish form dense layers at the Atlantic-Arctic gateway, but they remain deeper than their main zooplankton prey during the midnight sun period, which limits feeding. Interesting paper @p_priou! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Another day in the office for #DFONL scientists, working aboard the #CCGSAmundsen on an expedition in Labrador. Their work involves looking for sensitive habitats with corals & sponges. How are they doing this? By using equipment like a new ROV and drop cameras. Cool, right?

Our new study on the use of artificial light, including red light, when deploying scientific instruments at sea. We observed stronger avoidance behavior than expected nature.com/articles/s4159…

I was today years old when I found out that wolffish do NOT age well… considering they look like this as juveniles 😬 GMEALab . . #arcticfish #research #gradschool #cuties

MI's Maxime Geoffroy was chief scientist among 36 researchers on board the CCGS Amundsen for a month-long deep-sea mission this summer. Read what they learning about deep-water corals of the north. @VPR_Memorial ow.ly/accP50GgXWR

Anyone hazard a guess as the the species of this marine mammal? Washed up on the beach on polly’s cove, Nova Scotia. My mom assumed that with a marine bio degree I could identify—but I can’t be sure when the pictures were taken with a potato DFO Maritimes

She may be bigger and possibly wiser, but she still hasn’t helped much with my research… always sleeping on the job!

At what point do I successfully pass over the “r learning curve”? Asking for a friend… #help

Big news! DFO has undergone some changes recently, but we can finally announce the biggest change since 1979… We’re excited to share that DFO is getting a new name! ⬇️ FISH→ Federal Institute of Seas and Harbours Stay tuned for more information!

Awesome Ph.D. opportunity to join a great team!

Sizeable population of #capelin spawning in freshwater bay over moderately large rocks? I’m no expert but that’s not a typical substrate choice🤔. Eggs were adhered to the rocks in the intertidal zone! Jessica Randall and I decided to take a little dip with the remaining survivors
