Chose one of biggest discoveries: one of most important things, one of first groups to discover that the amount of stress a mother is under can actually influence the fitness of her offspring. What jobs have students gotten after working with you: medical school, environment canada, erca (local, phds and postdocs (academia, nongovernmental organizations (nature canada) What courses do you teach: 3rd year, environmental physiology (link ecological variation to physiological adaptations, 4th year, evolutionary endocrinology (hormones and how they evolve to work well in our bodies) I have read that you are studying the decline in tree swallow populations using their elevated stress hormone as a method for discerning for populations that are lowering their relative fitness. We have learned that organisms that are adapted to specific environments are greatly affected by environmental conditions.
