Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts — the most efficient known — accelerating biochemical reactions in all forms of life. Due to their high catalytic efficiency and biodegradability, enzymes are used to accelerate reactions in a wide range of industrial processes such as pharmaceutical synthesis and food processing.

A team of Canadian researchers, including Inuit and other Indigenous researchers, have published the first study of Inuit surgical outcomes today in CMAJ Open. The study used data from The Ottawa Hospital, which is the quaternary care provider to the Qikiqtani-Qikiqtaaluk Region, home to half of the Nunavut Inuit population.
