PhD Candidate, Geography, Planning, and Environment Department, Concordia University Mitchell Dickau is a student researcher at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) as well as a PhD candidate studying climate science in the Geography, Planning, and Environment department at Concordia University. In his research, Mitchell uses an intermediate complexity Earth system model to investigate how Earth responds to anthropogenic emissions. His research interests include estimating the size of the remaining carbon budget and investigating how temperature overshoot affects Earth. Mitchell's previous research focussed on the effect of climate change on outdoor skating under various emissions pathways. Working as a student researcher for the Canadian Centre for Climate Services at ECCC, Mitchell works on a project developing projections of different fire weather indices under a range of future emissions scenarios.
Wildlife Conservation Biologist and PhD Student, Concordia University I am a wildlife conservation biologist and a PhD. student at Concordia University, Montreal. My research focus is threefold: the rehabilitation and reintroduction of bearded capuchin monkeys in the Brazilian Caatinga, human-wildlife coexistence in the area of release, and the effectiveness and ethical integrity of wildlife rescue centres in the areas of animal welfare, human welfare and conservation. In 2022, I graduated with my MS in Nonprofit Management from Columbia University, New York, summa cum laude. Prior to this I worked as a conservation biologist for Taricaya Eco Reserve and Rescue Center in the Madre de Dios region of Peru for two years. In 2019, I earned my BSc. in Natural Resources Conservation, Global Perspectives from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. Throughout my career, I have worked and volunteered in wildlife conservation and rehabilitation in four continents with countless animals and dream to one day open and operate a nonprofit wildlife rescue center. I am passionate about wildlife conservation and reintroduction, community development and animal welfare, with a particular affinity towards primates, elephants and bears.
