The University of Guelph is ranked as one of Canada's top comprehensive universities because of commitment to student-centric learning and innovative research. My PhD research involved collaboration with Hólar University College, Iceland, a growing institution recognised internationally for aquatic biology and aquaculture research.★ Research Assistantship ★I was tasked with advancing understanding of evolutionary ecology through independent research. Over four years I defined, implemented, and managed a multi-faceted research project investigating the diversification of Arctic charr within lakes. I was required to develop expertise in aquatic ecology, fish biology, and evolution, and I was responsible for mastering skills in the field, lab, and statistical analysis necessary to understand the complexities of nature. Some of my achievements include:▪️ Developing critical thinking and data analysis skills: using advanced statistical software (e.g. R) and integrating information from multiple sources to understand complex relationships▪️ Training, leading, and supervising teams of volunteers in the field and the lab over three field seasons in Iceland▪️ Communicating my research to technical and non-technical audiences at conferences, in seminars, and in peer-reviewed scientific publications▪️ Mastering skills including fish & macroinvertebrate sampling, parasite identification, otolith ageing▪️ Demonstrating incredible drive and research commitment to survive a four-year PhD.For further accomplishments or details regarding my research, you can contact me at odf@outlook.com
