Two words: edible vaccines. They may seem like a pipe dream, but Department of Biology Professor Allyson MacLean and undergraduate researcher Monique Power have accomplished the first steps in bringing an edible vaccine to life … using the humble lettuce!

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.

The ocean is a mystery to us, yet it provides many opportunities to teach us about the world and how it works. Professor Brett Walker’s research uncovers an important aspect of how the ocean influences our climate.

Located five kilometres north of Yellowknife, near Great Slave Lake and the Indigenous communities of Ndilo and Dettah, Giant Mine is of great concern to scientists like Professor Tom Al, who recognize the potential environmental and social dangers of untreated mine waste to surrounding ecosystems and communities.

The use of fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) is a relatively new modelling approach that can graphically represent structured knowledge in various fields of science, engineering, and the social sciences.
