Lunch & Learn

Monthly, one-hour webinars featuring one to two FRIP-funded research projects.

Our monthly Lunch & Learn webinars give you the opportunity to learn about research findings and management implications directly from the researchers. Each webinar will feature one to two FRIP-funded projects, with time for a moderated Q&A. Individual presentations are posted as separate videos to make it easier to find what you need.

Please note: All Lunch & Learn webinars will be posted to this website and will be publicly available. The Q&A portion of the webinars will not be posted.

Upcoming Webinar

For our fifth webinar, Dr. Darío Fernández-Bellon will highlight a multi‑year project (2023-2027) that builds on over 23 years of research and inventory work by the fRI Research Grizzly Bear Program to test and develop new methods to better monitor grizzly bear habitats, population health and trends across Alberta.

Tuesday, February 17, 2026; 12:00–1:00 pm MST
