Evolution & Adaptation
Identifying genomic variation associated with environmental gradients, life history and rapid evolutionary change.
Bradbury Fisheries Genomics Lab
Science connecting
genomes, populations
and decisions.
Using genomics to understand adaptation, connectivity and resilience in aquatic species.
Explore the research ↓Research
From genomes to ecosystems.
We study how aquatic biodiversity is structured, how species respond to environmental change, and how genomic information can support conservation and fisheries science.
Conservation Genomics
Resolving population structure, connectivity and distinctiveness to inform conservation and management.
Climate Resilience
Connecting genomic vulnerability, ecological change and future environments across northern aquatic systems.
Fisheries Genomics
Applying genomic tools to stock structure, monitoring, species identification and sustainable fisheries.
Field science
Genomics grounded in place.
Featured research
Research across scales.
GenARCC
Genomic Adaptation and Resilience to Climate Change—linking genomic diversity with climate vulnerability across Canadian ecosystems.
Atlantic Salmon Climate Resilience
Integrating genomics, environmental DNA and telemetry to understand change across Atlantic salmon populations.
Arctic Charr & Northern Fishes
Genomic adaptation, environmental change and pangenomics across Labrador and the Canadian Arctic.
Fieldwork
Connecting landscapes, populations and genomes.
Our work spans rivers, coasts and offshore ecosystems—from Newfoundland and Labrador to the Canadian Arctic and across the North Atlantic.
About
Science for understanding change.
Ian Bradbury is a research scientist with Fisheries and Oceans Canada whose work focuses on evolutionary and conservation genomics of aquatic species, with an emphasis on climate adaptation, population structure and the translation of genomic evidence into science advice.
