Wanderer above the Sea of Fog by Caspar David Friedrich


Me, Myself and I

I am Canadian and Quebecer .

I have a B.Sc. in biology by problem-based learning from the Université du Québec à Montréal.
I have a M.Sc. in plant science, but focused on insects, from McGill University with the Neotropical Environment Option in collaboration with the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.
I am working towards a Ph.D. in biology, in the Ecology, Evolution and Behavior program at Indiana University Bloomington.


My interests

I am mainly interested in biology, especially entomology and behavioural ecology, insect evolution, but also entomophagy (not quite biology). I usually find most science subjects interesting. I like to cook and eat well. Excluding Wikipedia, my spare time goes to photography (especially insect macro, see my Flickr account), do what I can for the planet, reading (especially fantasy & fiction), listening to music (especially celtic, celtic fusion, alternative rock, folk-rock and rock en español), and watching anime.

  • captioned (takes one n) [2]
  • species (the singular is also species)
  • dependent (does not take an a) [3]

I agree with User:Shanes' (now slightly outdated) rant: Why tags are evil

E.g. Neverwinter, with practically a full screen of notices before the article!
