Marie-Josée Fortin
[MJFortin_CV_2022]

University Professor, FRSC
Canada Research Chair in Spatial Ecology
An ecologist by training, Marie-Josée has four main research areas: spatial ecology, disturbance ecology, conservation, and spatial statistics. Her research program studies the effects of global change (land-use and climate) on species spatial dynamics at the landscape and geographical range levels both in multiuse forested ecosystems and aquatic networks to maintain biodiversity and species conservation.
