LIFE at
UMFK

Please join us on October 29 at 11:00a.m. in Nadeau Hall Teleconference Room for a special presentation with Dr. Brittany Slabach as part of the Scientific Speaker Series.

Dr. Slabach is a biologist and field ecologist who studies how landscapes, environmental disturbances, and human recreation affect wildlife communities. Her research spans a wide range of species, including mammals, reptiles, and birds, using field techniques such as wildlife trapping, camera surveys, vegetation sampling, mapping, and molecular methods.

Come hear about her passion for wildlife and field ecology, explore her research, and learn about her experiences working with wildlife in Maine and beyond!

This seminar is made possible through the generous support of the Maine IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (Maine INBRE).

This event is free and open to the public! 🍂

New students! Mark your calendars and join us for Open House on November 6th! This will be a chance for you to hear from current students, tour our campus, and connect with faculty.

Call to register today!

Today, UMFK offices are closed in observance of Indigenous Peoples' Day.

The University of Maine at Fort Kent campus is located within the ancestral homeland of the Wabanaki, including the Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) and the Mi’kmaq (Micmac) peoples.

As a public university serving the St. John Valley and beyond, we recognize our responsibility to foster respect for Indigenous histories and perspectives, and support a future grounded in understanding, reciprocity, and shared responsibility.
