KRSP PI Jeffrey Lane is recruiting students at the UofS - not on red squirrels this time (but stay tuned!). Instead: exciting work with hibernating ground squirrels and endangered bats. See postings at lanelab.ca

We have a summer NSF REU spot for an undergrad to work w/ Kluane Red Squirrel Project and Ben Dantzer, Ph.D. on the behavior & physio of these very special small mammals. See ad below. Happy to answer any Qs, please share!

The gut-brain axis: not just for lab rodents! My first postdoc paper is now out in Scientific Reports. We find evidence of a robust gut-brain axis in wild North American red squirrels👇 rdcu.be/cG7L7 w/ Ben Dantzer, Ph.D., Andrew McAdam, Kluane Red Squirrel Project, + twitterless others

Sad to learn that a good friend and neighbour of Kluane Red Squirrel Project Thomas Joe passed away in Nov 2020. He was one of the first people I met in Haines Junction and was always a kind and generous neighbour.

In a changing world, are animals picky about what ecological shifts they hormonally respond to? We (David Delaney Ben Dantzer, Ph.D. Andrew McAdam & more) address this question in our new paper out today in Hormones and Behavior Journal featuring Kluane Red Squirrel Project 👇 authors.elsevier.com/a/1fr58,QxXgi6W

Because of low funding, many young scientists are now making less than minimum wage, which means they either have to live in poverty, quit practicing science, or leave Canada. The Support our Science movement is calling for a change. cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

It’s #SquirrelAwarenessMonth — are you aware of Kluane Red Squirrel Project’ ongoing work researching squirrels in Yukon over decades? #Squirrellology redsquirrel.biology.ualberta.ca

Very nice work by the Kluane Red Squirrel Project team, led Sam Walmsley, Boutinlab, Ben Dantzer, Ph.D. Coltman Lab & Andrew McAdam. Cool follow-up to my PhD work. Nice to see those results inspiring more cool science on the imp of social relationships in solitary 🐿️! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Red squirrels in the Yukon are really good at timing things (such as when to breed or exiting the nest on the warmest part of the day in the winter) & the publication of this study using Kluane Red Squirrel Project data is also timely given it is #SquirrelAppreciationDay. Happy squirreling!

Red squirrel mothers who consistently bet on the environment being resource-rich have greater lifetime fitness than those who bet on the environment being poor—even when they are mistaken—a new Science study finds. Learn more on #SquirrelAppreciationDay: scim.ag/1ft

Congrats Quinn! Check out his work with us on Kluane Red Squirrel Project where he used social network analyses to examine plasticity in territory size and territory intrusion rates in NA red squirrels. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…
