Email: loic.jacquemot42@gmail.com
Dr. Jacquemot is an oceanographer and marine ecologist who specializes in the use of molecular techniques (DNA/RNA metabarcoding and omics) to investigate the diversity and distribution of marine communities and their interactions within marine ecosystems Read More
Jacob Lerner
Dr. Lerner is a biological oceanographer interested in the trophic ecology of pelagic food webs. Specifically, his research centres on the marine life history of Pacific salmon, carry-over effects of marine foraging on their reproductive success, and the relationship between this and the structure of pelagic ecosystems.

Postdoctoral Fellow; Changing Oceans Research Unit
Email: j.palacios@oceans.ubc.ca
Juliano Palacios Abrantes’ work looks at how climate change is shifting the distribution of marine species generating uncertain feedbacks on marine ecosystems and dependent fishing communities. Specifically, he looks at how such shifts affect shared stocks (e.g., stocks that are… Read More

Anna Schuhbauer
Postdoctoral Fellow; Fisheries Economics Research Unit
Email: a.schuhbauer@oceans.ubc.ca
Dr. Schuhbauer has been part of the Fisheries Economic Research Unit since 2012. Her expertise in the field of fisheries spans from transdisciplinary research approaches, such as working with small-scale fisheries at a local scale, to developing high-level theoretical research frameworks at the global scale. Her work predominantly focuses on socio-economics and social-ecology, addressing both practical and theoretical aspects of fisheries.
Kristen Sora
Kristen’s (she/her) PhD research topic encompasses multi-stressor impacts on the Canadian Beaufort Sea marine ecosystem at various biological scales. Specifically, she will develop and apply food web models and associated indices using the platform Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) to understand system dynamics. The food web models will investigate possible changes in the Beaufort Sea ecosystem structure and function under changing environmental and human… Read More
Genyffer Troina
Dr. Troina investigates the trophic and spatial ecology of marine top predators. She has been applying natural chemical tracers to learn about the foraging ecology and habitat use by marine mammals, how sympatric cetacean species compete for available resources, and how human-induced changes can affect the structure and dynamics of marine pelagic ecosystems.

Developing nations at risk from harmful fisheries subsidies, UBC study states
Harmful fisheries subsidies are leading to more fishing vessels chasing fewer fish, resulting in adverse environmental and societal impacts.
