Hydrilla verticillate (hydrilla), one of North America’s most invasive species, was found for the first time in Canada.
A deep connection and commitment to our local region and community traces back to the University of Waterloo’s founding, and the Faculty of Science continues that tradition by inspiring and empowering the next generation of scientists through interactive and engaging outreach prog
The pharmacy profession is known across Canada as a
From working for a clean energy incubator in Uganda to analyzing sales data in Munich, and monitoring biodiversity in Germany’s Black Forest, Samantha Kremer's co-op experiences have been nothing short of extraordinary.
Underrepresented populations have been historically excluded from clinical trials including women, racial and ethnic minority groups, and pregnant, lactating, pediatric and geriatric populations. While the importance of including these groups in clinical trials are slowly being recognized and remedied, there are still questions in how currently prescribed drugs affect these populations, including the safety and efficacy of the medications.


Growing up in Waterloo, Sydney Johannsen looked to the University of Waterloo as a place to ignite her scientific curiosity. What she didn’t anticipate was that her time here would lead to self-discovery and a new desire for a career in education.
Two co-op students from the Faculty of Science have made a big impact during a recent work term at the SickKids Research Institute. Murto Hilali and Kritika Grover are using AI as a tool to understand cerebral palsy — and their efforts have earned them recognition as contributing authors in an upcoming paper published in Nature Genetics.
On April 8, 2024, sky gazers and astronomy enthusiasts in southern Ontario will be treated to a spectacular once-in-a-lifetime event — a total solar eclipse. This rare marvel occurs when the Moon completely covers the Sun, sweeping a shadow over us to reveal a mesmerizing solar corona.
We recently asked Dr. Roan Haggar, a postdoctoral fellow and the outreach co-ordinator for the Waterloo Centre for Astrophysics (WCA) at the University of Waterloo, to share the science behind the solar eclipse so we can better understand this phenomenon as it passes over us.
As spine surgeons and health-care professionals gathered in the white-capped mountains of Whistler, British Columbia, for the Canadian Spine Society’s annual conference earlier this month, many of them heard from University of Waterloo student, Sarah Hardy.
