Glenn Crossin, Ph.D.
Professor
I study the physiological mechanisms that underlie variation in life-history traits, mostly (but not exclusively!) in birds and fish. I received my BSc from the University of New Hampshire, my MSc and PhD from the University of British Columbia, and pursued postdoctoral studies at Simon Fraser University, the British Antarctic Survey, and Fisheries & Oceans Canada.
Editorial board member, Biology Letters
Associate Editor, Marine Ornithology

Zoe Clark, Honours student
I am a fourth-year marine biology student starting my Honours in the Crossin Lab. I am originally from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. I discovered a passion for the natural sciences at a young age through fishing, canoeing, and land-based learning camps. I have a background in industry, having spent the last three summers working as a summer student at a diamond mine in the NWT. A big part of my job in the summer is bird observation and nesting surveys, and I attribute my interest in ornithology to my past work experience.
I am currently working in collaboration with Environment and Climate Change Canada on temporal patterns of environmental contaminants in eggs from four seabird species at Sable Island, Nova Scotia. I hope that this research provides insight into marine contamination and routes of exposure between species.
