SUMMARY:Insect Focus Group
DESCRIPTION:Your Host:  Don Wales \nTopic:  Diptera order and a healthy review of the Coleoptera order\n \nDiptera – true flies. The Diptera include flies\, mosquitos\, gnats\, midges\, and no-see-ums. There are about 120\,000 known species of true flies alive today. Dipterans typically have sucking mouth-parts\, and may feed on plant juices or on decaying organic matter. A number of dipterans feed on blood\, and some may transmit vertebrate diseases; certain mosquitos\, for instance\, transmit human malaria. Other dipterans pollinate certain flowering plants — although not the kind you’d necessarily want in your corsage! Fly-pollinated plants\, like the skunk cabbage of North America or the stinking corpse lily of Madagascar\, typically have quite pungent odors.

SUMMARY:Speaker of the Month
DESCRIPTION:RDRN General Meeting-Announcements/Refreshments – 7:30 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Fabien Mavrot – 8:00 p.m. \nTopic: Monitoring Health in a Declining Muskox Population: Challenges and Solutions in the Remote Arctic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Mavrot is a Swiss Veterinarian with a strong interest in wildlife and epidemiology. He wrote his Veterinary thesis on infectious keratoconjunctivitis in Alpine Ibex and Chamois at the Center for Fish and Wildlife Health at the University of Bern and subsequently completed a PhD on gastro-intestinal parasites of domestic ruminants at the Section for Veterinary Epidemiology of the University of Zürich. Dr. Mavrot is currently employed as a postdoctoral at the Department of Ecosystem and Public Health of the University of Calgary. His project focuses on improving our understanding of muskox health in the Canadian Arctic. He uses a participatory approach combined with regression analysis to gain insight on the epidemiological processes driving muskox population. In particular\, he is interested in pathogens that might be new to the Arctic\, such as the bacteria Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae or expanding their range such as the lung-worm Umingmakstrongylus pallikuukensis.
