Les travaux de doctorat de @sarahtardif.bsky.social sur l’identification des pollens par cytométrie en flux et apprentissage automatique viennent d’être publiés en preprint sur EGUSphere🎉. Actuellement en révision par les pairs, l’article est également ouvert à la discussion publique 💬.
Une étude est en cours pour mieux comprendre comment nous percevons les paysages forestiers. En participant à ce questionnaire photo d'environ 10 minutes, vous aiderez à mieux saisir la vision collective de la nature et de la biodiversité.

This year's Quebec Center for Biodiversity Science (QCBS) Symposium took place this week. PaqLab master's students Johanna Arnet and Emma Bacon, both also supervised by
@carlyziter.bsky.social at Concordia University, presented the results of their master's research projects on Tuesday afternoon.
Charlotte Langlois, qui a terminé sa maîtrise au printemps, est de retour au labo après un long voyage! Elle prend la relève de Mégane pour le remplacement d'Elyssa et s'occupe de l'administration du laboratoire ainsi que d'assister les étudiant.e.s dans leurs projets.
Bon retour parmi nous!

Proud of @emmasbacon.bsky.social who defended yesterday (co-advised @paqlab.bsky.social). 6 months of fieldwork, countless doors knocked on, 28000+ trees IDd, & an incredible MSc thesis on Montréal’s urban forest! While playing in an orchestra & publishing 3 side projects 🤩. Someone hire her ASAP! 😉
Very proud that what we've developed for cities in Québec will now be used in 🇧🇷! How to diversify native trees in cities: a trait-based approach in the Atlantic Forest in southern Brazil.

Abstract. Exposure to allergenic pollen is a major public health concern, as it is a key trigger for respiratory allergies, including seasonal allergic rhinitis, which affects approximately 20 % of th...
Effective forest management in the context of climate change requires adaptive approaches. One key strategy is increasing diversity to mitigate the associated risks. This study employs a functional ap...
New online! Ecological insights from three decades of forest biodiversity experiments
Nature Reviews Biodiversity, Published online: 02 January 2026; doi:10.1038/s44358-025-00112-2Experiments manipulating tree species diversity and measuring effects on ecosystem function have been important tools for assessing how biodiverse forests can accumulate biomass, store carbon and help to meet climate goals. This Review summarizes key findings from global tree biodiversity experiments.
