We acknowledge with respect that our work takes place on the lands and waters of the Lekwungen peoples, and that our presence here impacts the Songhees, Esquimalt and WSÁNEĆ peoples whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day. We seek to use our research skills to address historical and ongoing environmental injustices and to empower communities in Canada and internationally through interventions at all stages of the drinking water supply chain. We apply a Green Engineering and Chemistry lens as one of many perspectives on these challenges and opportunities.
Last week, our visiting researcher Frank gave his final presentation! He’s been working on using modified LIG electrodes to detect emerging contaminants in water systems. We’re grateful for his contributions and wish him a safe trip back to Brazil and good luck with his PhD defense (though we know he’ll crush it)! 🎓💪
Snapshots of the group presenting posters and seminars at GSRD! Special congratulations to Kirsten for winning the Best Seminar Award! 🏆👏
This program brings together early-career researchers from around the world to explore innovative approaches in green chemistry and engineering.
Our lab just hosted the very first Annual GSWL International Spikeball Extravaganza! Congratulations to all the participants (we are all winners). We wrapped up the tournament with pizza… and proudly wore our pizza mustaches!
Today was the final presentation for our Mitacs intern, May! She worked in our Arsenic Project. It’s been a pleasure having her in our lab, and we wish her a safe return to Ibagué, Colombia.
