Research team at the University of New Brunswick

The CAST research team is working year-round to learn more about Atlantic salmon. Our team of researchers is made up of scientists from multiple countries and multiple backgrounds. We believe collaboration is the key to success and we are always interested in joining forces with other researchers.

Collecting new data is a crucial part of our research. Every field season (May-November) the team grows as researchers and talented field personnel come together to collect important data and achieve our goals.
