Our professors had such a great time in Toronto last year, they insisted on a second round!
One again we're bringing a little bit of the Faculty of Science to Toronto for some casual academic conversations. Pull up a chair, have a drink and a few munchies on us, and engage in some spirited discussions with various science faculty members.
We are kicking off the biweekly biology semester series for fall term with the inimitable Dr. Clara Chan from the University of Delaware, with a talk this Friday titled "How microbes rust the Earth: Insights from field studies, culturing and ‘omics"
Welcome to the Amazing Science Race!
Science teams ready, set and GO!
It's on! All alumni, friends and family are invited to join us online for the Amazing Science Race, a virtual race and scavenger hunt. You can participate on your own, or if you prefer, gather some friends or family members to round out your team.
The leaves are turning vibrant colours, catching your eyes and making you ponder the mysterious ways of plants.
This week's seminar is a perfect fit, with Dr. Alizée Malnoë from Umeå University in Sweden presenting a seminar on "Molecular Players of Photoprotection in Plants".
