Congratulations to Susan Wang, MSc student working in my lab and co-supervised with Dr. Janet Koprivnikar (Ryerson University) for successfully defending her thesis on:
“Behavioural Thermoregulation and Energetics in Two Intermediate Hosts of Trematode Parasites”
Thank you for all members of the examining committee for their hard work and interesting defence discussions:
External Examiner: Dr. Carl Lowenberger, Simon Fraser University
Committee Members: Dr. Gaynor Spencer, Dr. Robert Carlone, Dr. Dorina Szuroczki

Her time in the lab was far too short, but we are proud of her accomplishments and for her hard work on an interesting project. Because of Susan, I can safely say that we can readily do interdisciplinary research! Ecological physiology of disease and host:parasite interactions is a fun topic and I’m glad to have had this project taking place in my lab and grateful for Janet Koprivnikar for funding, intellectual, and logistic support, collaboration, and supervision at every step.
