Applications are invited from potential graduate students interested in research in the area of Thermoregulatory Physiology.  We use comparative animal models (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals) to integrate behaviour and physiology to understand the “Neural Control of Body Temperature”, how environmental stressors such as low oxygen impact physiological responses, and how thermoregulation has evolved in the animal kingdom.

Graduate Students will receive a annual stipend of ~$20,000 / annum. Students with a background or interest in animal physiology, behavioural ecology,  neuro-physiology, or biochemistry are encouraged to apply.

If you are planning to apply for NSERC graduate funding, you are also encouraged to contact me to discuss potential projects.
