    The grasslands of North America have been dramatically changed by the conversion of native prairie to cropland. All in all, we have lost roughly 80% of North American grasslands, and about 75% of species at risk in Alberta are found in grassland ecosystems. Ferruginous Hawks, the largest hawk in...

    The numerous ice crystals of irregular structure/colure combined together to create such a natural piece of art that fascinates both engineers and artists. Polarized light was used to glow up the ice crystals in an ice core sample. The image depicted a freezed shot of an invasion of ice sheets at...

    My work alongside trafficked women in Southeast Asia situates my interest in advancing our understanding of their experiences. Driven by my practice, questions arose about how women, who have been trafficked, negotiate their health and wellbeing across their lives. Playing with notions of touch...

    This picture captures Rodney, a tree farmer I interviewed for my research as we walked through his farm in Taranaki, New Zealand. Rodney has a deep connection to his place, but he is also afraid things could change. A predominantly agricultural and rural region, Taranaki is considered the centre...

    Uric acid (UA) is an important biomarker of human health, given that it is implicated in a range of medical conditions such as gout, arthritis, kidney stones, and heart diseases. Gout, for example, is a prevalent and painful disease caused by uric acid buildup in joints. At high concentrations,...

    Photoreceptors are the cells in the eye that detect light and convert light into signals that are transmitted to the brain, allowing for sight. I study how photoreceptor cells function as well as how they change during disease. Cone photoreceptors are specifically responsible for high acuity...

    Here is an image of Moxie, a female, tame caribou in northern Ontario consuming some stick-lichen (Usnea spp.). Moxie and 15 other tame caribou allowed us to quantify caribou-specific nutritional resources across the boreal forest. Specifically, we combined tedious foraging-trials, where we...

    Do you see the coloured pairs that look like seahorses? Imagine looking from the top at horizontal cuts in the human brain. When the anatomist, Arantius, saw the brain of a cadaver, he named each of those regions hippocampus or “seahorse” in Greek. Here, you are looking at brain images of two...

    Among clinical imaging techniques it is common to monitor cellular biochemical processes using “molecular lanterns” in the form of light-emitting proteins or RNA nucleobases. Naturally occurring RNA nucleobases do not emit light (fluoresce) and thus, cannot be directly used for this purpose....

    In my research about ohtisiy (a word in the Cree language that conducts us to identify ourselves on the matrilineal principles), I learned more about the women from different generations in my society and their endeavors to empower themselves. In this research, I found that changing the role,...
