Grace Melchers
I am a Master’s student in the Pelagic Ecosystems Laboratory at the University of British Columbia, based in Vancouver, BC. I was born in England, raised in Ontario, and lured out to British Columbia for the mountains and a Bachelor’s degree in Natural Resources Conservation from the Faculty of Forestry at UBC. The vibrant people I have met and ocean ecosystems I have had the privilege to connect with convinced me to stay on the West Coast and pursue graduate studies in The Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries. My research, in partnership with the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, focuses on employing emerging, non-invasive methods (environmental DNA, or eDNA) to study marine biodiversity and community interactions in urban and non-urban nearshore ecosystems, with a focus on Pacific salmon.
