Historical case study of a transfer experiment that demonstrated the importance of the estuarine ecosystem for the survival of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) at the Campbell River estuary, British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Estuary dependence to the survival of Chinook salmon was investigated at the Campbell River estuary, British Columbia, Canada. Replicate batches of marked smolts were transferred from a hatchery and released in 1983, 1984 and 1985 at four ecosystems, two that ensured estuarine experience (river, estuary) and two seawards of the estuary ...

Development and Validation of a Cross‐Dimensional Screening Protocol for Remote Phenotyping Applied to Individuals With 3q29 Deletion Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advances in genomics have resulted in a rapid expansion of the number of known rare genetic disorders (RGDs). However, the low frequency of RGDs presents a challenge for accurately describing the phenotypic spectrum of a given disorder. Remote phenotyping strategies are uniquely poised to address this knowledge gap.
