Silicon nanoparticles can be used in lithium-ion batteries, LEDs, and medical imaging. When these materials are smaller than 5 nm, they glow red under UV light. The color the particles emit can be changed by changing their size or what is on their surface. I am working to understand how the...

Here, we have experimentally measured the wavefunction of a single buried arsenic atom peeking through a silicon surface. Its complex form perfectly captures one of the most fundamental properties of quantum mechanics: the location of an electron is based on probability and is never fixed. While...

This image captures both the grandeur of mountain landscapes and their sensitivity to climatic warming. Most of the world’s population derives cultural, spiritual, and/or recreational significance from glaciated mountains. Furthermore, glaciers provide more than a sixth of the world’s population...

What is a home? Many unhoused individuals are described as homeless; however, they may not view themselves that way. We took great care to be intentional with our use of language when developing our community-led housing framework for individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. Consider the...

Cannabis and elite athleticism are two subjects often assumed to be contrary and incompatible. This textural juxtaposition of a crystalline cannabis flower atop a worn leather basketball represents the atypical but definite relationship between cannabis and sport. Cannabis is the second most...

This image shows a single DNA molecule being unzipped using laser tweezers. The lasers act like 'tractor beams', pulling the micron-sized beads biochemically linked to the ends of the molecule, toward the optical focal point. By moving the laser beams apart, we apply tension to the ends of the...

My research as a violinist at the University of Alberta explores the idea of ‘metaphoric intersectionality’ (Duerden, 2007) between violin and dance gestures. This is the idea that physical and music gestures in violin performance can lead to insights into the gestures of dance, and vice...

This is a canola roots collected from flooding area. Canola is a flood sensitive species but flooding frequently happen around us during snow-melt season and summer. Plant tissues actually like human beings. They have their own memory through the stress they are tolerant and enduring. When the...
