Biography
Populations change.
Might parasites be a cause?
Math can help find out!
Stephanie is a mathematical ecologist interested in population ecology of parasites and their hosts. Her past work has focused on parasite transmission between farmed and wild salmon in Pacific Canada and the consequences for wild salmon populations. At the University of Calgary, Stephanie is working with Dr. Susan Kutz and Dr. Péter K. Molnár (University of Toronto Scarborough) to understand the net effect of parasites, host migration, and climate on wildlife health in the Canadian Arctic. When not scribbling math on a piece of paper or simulating models on her computer, Stephanie can be found roaming in the mountains for fun.
