A new article in @knowablemag.bsky.social that highlights some of @levinewediuk.bsky.social's PD work with me and @colingarroway.bsky.social, along with many other efforts to bring epigenetic clocks into conservation efforts.

The clock is ticking: How epigenetics could help save wildlife from collapse
In polar bears, dolphins, baboons and more, molecular signatures of aging are changing how conservationists assess population health, resilience and risk

🧠 New preprint!

@levinewediuk.bsky.social and I take a critical look at the “bigger is better” hypothesis in young teleosts by combining longitudinal survivor studies in a global meta-analysis.

Curious to hear your thoughts!

New preprint! 🚨

Predators hunt where prey forage. So, prey should be afraid of their favourite places to eat… right? 1/5

I am currently looking for an MSc student to join my research group for September 2025 to investigate moose habitat selection in the context of apparent competition in Ontario's Far North. Please share and contact me for further details!

Want to make an epigenetic clock for your non-human study species but don't know where to start? Check out our new preprint that guides you through the process!
🚨New preprint alert! 🚨

With the advent of a microarray that can measure DNA methylation from any mammal, people have begun creating epigenetic clocks for all kinds of cool species.
