Excited to share our new publication on the horse nemabiome! Grateful to co-lead this work with Grace Ochigbo and to contribute to parasite knowledge in Alberta’s feral horses! Many thanks to our co-authors Kobe, @jocelynpoissant.bsky.social, and Brielle!

A HUGE thank you to all co-authors and collaborators—this work would not have been possible without you!
Excited to announce the publication of the first chapter of my PhD in Biological Conservation! We evaluated individual behavioral variation and its implications for delineating intraspecific units for the conservation of caribou. Read more here:

The first paper from my PhD is out in Parasitology! Using DNA metabarcoding, I show patterns of parasite infection in Sable Island horses!
It's open access, so go check it out!

Great work by PhD student Micky Ahn 🎉! Make sure to check this one out if interested in equine or wildlife parasitology, and/or DNA metabarcoding of mixed parasitic infections aka #nemabiome 🐴🪱👇🏻
🌟 Hi everyone, excited to join the BlueSky community! I am a wildlife biologist interested in the little things that run the world (in this case, macroparasites, viruses, microbes). I am currently working on my PhD at the University of Calgary to investigate the gut microbiome of bighorn sheep 🐏
Hello! I'm Micky, a PhD Candidate at the University of Calgary studying the ecology and evolution of parasites in Sable Island horses using DNA metabarcoding. I spent 3 summers on a deserted island as a glorified poop picker and amateur horse photographer.
Hi Bluesky 🔵
Glad to appear in this new social zone! I'm Charlotte, working as a 3rd year Ph.D candidate at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in University of Calgary on woodland caribou genomics and microbiome in Western Canada. I'm interested about wildlife conservation and population ecology.
Allow me to re-introduce myself! I'm a PhD candidate @ U Calgary working on caribou ecology, focusing on evaluating movement behaviour and habitat selection using GPS collar data in Western Canada. My general interests include applied conservation, animal behaviour, & taking sub-par wildlife photos
