The ability to see the development of the zebra fish’s nervous system under the microscope has provided an amazing advantage over other animal models of the spinal cord.
In short, pseudoscience is presented like science, but lacks the same rigour that science undergoes. As a result, it makes the two extremely difficult to discern.
“I had a project where I was working in northern Canada. Those areas had beautiful northern lights, where the green and red colours filled the entire sky,” said the U of O researcher in an interview.
“Perfectionism is a maladaptive personality trait: it’s associated with anxiety and depression, and other things like academic burnout,” said U of O professor Tracy Vaillancourt.
Starr mainly studies plant systematics, which is the science that names, discovers and determines evolutionary relationships of organisms
Scientists are getting up on their soapboxes, but this time it’s to promote the amazing work being done by women in STEM
“I think most engineering students who graduate from school realize that it doesn’t give you any sort of practical experience. It doesn’t set you up well for any design experience at all, which is why internships and clubs like this exist.”
His main areas of study include spatial variation in the abundance of ectotherm populations, the evolutionary maintenance of polymorphisms, and applied conservation work
“I hope to accomplish creating a new generation of scientists that will be able to go out into the world and be successful and effective members of society in their role as scientists”
“In the long term the reconstruction of the mammoth’s movements can help scientists better understand extinction,” said U of O professor Clement Bataille
“Planetary health is this realization that, for you and me to be healthy, for humanity to be healthy, it depends on a healthy planet as well.”
“Isotope mapping is more productive than trying to put a radio transmitter on a butterfly, but gathering milkweed samples from 22 states isn’t easy either.”

Department is looking for teams and individuals to submit original ideas on how to redefine and modernize patients’ experience for the clinic of the future.
Good science communication about the pandemic “gives people a reason to be hopeful while also being cautious,” said Cassidy Swanston, the creator of SciComm School Podcast.
“[We are] a very unique team — there isn’t any other team like it. Being able to design something that’s supposed to go on another planet,” said Cameron Paul, the co-captain of the University of Ottawa’s Mars Rover Team.
Medical Laboratory Technologists are “hidden heroes, because nobody hears them and nobody sees them. Yet, a technologist finds-out, before anyone else, what is wrong with a patient,” said Michelle Hoad, the CEO of MLPAO.
“The Ocean Decade is an opportunity for marine nations to work together to turn the tide on ocean health by using science to tackle the many challenges facing our marine environment,” said the Hon. Bernadette Jordan.
