Congratulations to聽Professor Christian Genest聽on being聽awarded the聽2023 CRM-Fields-PIMS Prize!聽The CRM-Fields-PIMS prize is the premier Canadian award for research achievements in the mathematical sciences.
The 2022 United Nations Biodiversity Conference of the Parties (COP15) was held in Montreal on December 7-19, 2022. The conference鈥檚 outcome agreement, known as 鈥30脳30鈥 means the protection of 30 per cent of land and oceans by 2030.
Two highly accomplished researchers in McGill鈥檚 Department of Physics have received prestigious distinctions for their research
Each year, around 1,000 new students begin an undergraduate science degree at McGill. For many of them, their first year at university represents a dramatic change from the world of high school or CEGEP.
鈥淭he workload, the amount of new content you get, and a different style of testing鈥 are three of the challenges Marie Walker recalls from her first semester as a science undergrad.
To better understand the evolution of flowers, a research team in biology from Universit茅 de Montr茅al , the Montr茅al Botanical Garden, and 香蕉视频 (Daniel Schoen, Biology) have succeeded in using photogrammetry to quickly and precisely build, in three dimensions, a model of a flower from two-dimensional images.
Photogrammetry is commonly used by geographers to reconstruct the topography of a landscape. However, this is the first time that scientists have used the technique to design 3D models of flowers in order to better study them.
Did you know... McGill students have access to 20 GB FREE personal file space on OneDrive, Microsoft鈥檚 cloud file storage component of the Office 365 package.
Important: New OneDrive storage capacity
Please note that students receive 20GB of storage for McGill's OneDrive as well as 20GB storage for McGill's email (Outlook).

Lizz Webb, a PhD student in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences (and OSE Science Education Fellow) here at 香蕉视频, spent a week in Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago barely 1,000 kilometres from the North Pole, as part of her studies.
As Montreal prepares to host UN Biodiversity Conference, McGill professor Andrew Gonzalez discusses how cities can help protect nature and human health.
Global urban populations are projected to increase to nearly five billion by 2030. This ever-expanding urbanization threatens our world鈥檚 plant and animal biodiversity and degrades ecosystems through the loss of habitat, biomass and carbon storage. As noted during the recent COP27 climate conference, biodiversity loss is as critical to our planet鈥檚 health as the climate crisis.
A silent mass extinction is occurring in lakes, rivers and wetlands. Freshwater species are rapidly disappearing in North America and throughout the world. Conservation-minded people might be unaware of this, because of the media鈥檚 longstanding focus on land-based ecosystems and charismatic animals.

Three projects will fill knowledge gaps about the environmental and economic impacts of greenhouse gas emissions and strengthen Canada's capacity to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050
TUESDAY November 22. GHABH - The poison in the gift, Part I: Giving and receiving - considering commercial determinants of health.
How do the actions of not-for-profit and commercial second-hand clothing recycling determine relations within and between countries? How does the promotional imagery used by these companies and their actions reinstate clich茅 images of the other and have an impact the (mental) health through the psychological powerplay between the giver and receiver.聽

Diane Dechief from the Office of Science Education and Stephanie Weber from the Dept. of Biology were among several McGill instructors who recently gathered to share their ideas for fostering equitable and inclusive learning environments.
香蕉视频 announced that six of its Professors (two individually, four as part of a multi-institutional team) have been declared winners of this year鈥檚 Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) prizes. These prestigious awards range from individual awards for innovative discoveries by young researchers to recognitions of lifetime achievement and influence. The McGill-based recipients are as follows:
