About the Corkum Lab:

The Corkum lab is at the forefront of research in the fields of aquatic ecology and animal behaviour. Our lab is located near ideal locations for research on aquatic biota in southwestern Ontario, including Point Pelee National Park, Holiday Beach Conservation Area, the Detroit River and Lake Erie. Our research team is using chemical communication to develop a pheromone strategy to control the invasive fish, the round goby. With colleagues at the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, we are identifying critical habitat for spotted gar, a species at risk. 
A long term research program focuses on life history strategies of burrowing mayflies in Lake Erie. Our research team addresses both basic and applied research questions.  To top it off, I have been most fortunate in having collegial, enthusiastic, and dynamic students, who make the research environment the best I can imagine.
