Presenter:
Zachary Stahlschmidt, Ph.D., Killam Fellow, Dalhousie University
Dr. Stahlschmidt will present his work on how animals allocate resources (e.g., energy, oxygen) among the many different tasks they perform on daily and seasonal levels. Because resources aren't infinite, animals need to prioritize different tasks such as reproduction or immunity. Come see how animals ranging from crickets to pythons do the best job they can!
