When you think back on your elementary school days, you will probably remember conducting fun science experiments, such as elephant’s toothpaste, banana DNA extraction, and bean seed germination. These activities are not only mesmerizing, but also essential to foster curiosity and encourage critical thinking.

Algae and plants aren’t called “primary producers” for nothing. They’re the base of all food webs, and the sugars and oxygen they produce through photosynthesis are what allow every other organism on this planet to thrive, including us. So, if they go down, we go down with them.

At the pandemic’s outset, uOttawa researcher Michael Organ was approached by Toronto Research Chemicals (TRC) to create a flow reactor that manufactures a key molecule used to prepare PCR test kits to diagnose COVID-19. Billions of tests have since been performed around the world thanks to his flow reactor technology.
