Chemistry professor Adam Shuhendler is most in his element when he’s developing innovative chemical technologies that push the frontiers of molecular imaging and sensing research. Now, thanks to the Dorothy Killam Fellowship, he will be working on chemical probes that provide a clearer picture of how cancers form and spread in our bodies at the molecular level.

New research led by a team of conservation biologists at the University of Ottawa shows that not only do non-native plants make up a substantial portion of native butterfly nectar diets, but that butterflies may even prefer them over native plants.

The BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Basic Sciences goes in this fifteenth edition to Anne L’Huillier (Lund University, Sweden), Paul Corkum (University of Ottawa and the National Research Council, Canada) and Ferenc Krausz (Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Germany), the three pioneers of “attosecond physics” or “attophysics” whose work has made it possible to observe subatom...

Modern photonics beamed onto the scene with the invention of the laser in 1960, and has continued to make tremendous strides ever since. Today, the spotlight shines bright on two University of Ottawa researchers who have each received a prestigious Optica award for their glowing contributions to the science of light.

Motivated by curiosity and the chance to test their theories in space, gifted science students from a local school joined with the University of Ottawa to answer an important question: Do EpiPens work in space? The answer turned into a ground-breaking discovery.

In elementary school, during math class, Amanda Doku got hooked on science. Throughout high school, her interest grew rapidly as she got much more involved in the field. As a member of the robotics club, she collaborated with a team to design a functioning robot. As an executive with the engineering club, she organized events. As vice-president of the STEM council, she planned science fairs and Q&...

When Professor Ewurabena Simpson was in medical school, two supervisors commented on the fact that she was quiet. “Do you think it’s because you’re the only woman in the group?” asked one, a man. “Perhaps you should go into a field that’s less stressful,” said the other, a woman. And she remembers thinking, “Why is being quiet a bad thing?”
