Dr. Kate Parizeau is interested in research questions concerning the social context of waste and its management. Her research uses waste management practices as a lens through which to interrogate complex systems of social organization and human exchanges with the natural world.
My research looks at scales of local genetic adaptation to exotic Predators by Prey with high and low dispersal potential as well as ecological genomics and local adaptation of wild and aquacultural populations of Canadian Atlantic salmon.
I am dedicated to seek out practicum experiences that support the competency development of the MAN students. Additionally, I am interested in exploring if simulated learning exercises could accelerate competency attainment.
I combine experiments, simulations, and theory to tackling problems like improving small hydropower systems, modeling the climate inside greenhouses, and studying airflow in both industrial processes and outdoors.
