Associate Professor

Department of Zoology

Dr. Marshall started her career at UBC as a Killam Postdoctoral Fellow in 2013. In 2016, she moved to start an Assistant Professorship at the University of Oklahoma, then returned to UBC as an Assistant Professor in Comparative Physiology in 2018. Her work focuses on the causes and consequences of low temperature tolerance in invertebrates, and spans everything from the evolution of ice binding proteins to the impact of thermal variation on species distributions. She is currently an Associate Professor, and her lab website is available at www.marshall-lab.com.
