Dear Healthy Brains, Healthy Lives community,
Only 23 years ago, Canada closed Kivalliq Hall in Rankin Inlet. It was the last of 140 federally-run Indian Residential Schools created to deliberately and systematically destroy the languages, cultures and sovereignty of First Nations, Inuit and M茅tis people.
Scientists are seeking answers to why SARS-CoV-2 variants are so transmissible and why they cause greater disease severity than the original strain. McGill鈥檚 Qian (Vivian) Liu, together with researchers from the University of British Columbia and the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research, have launched a study to understand this question, investigating how SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins are organized and moved on the cell or virus surface by using single-molecule imaging technology.
Fund will be one of Canada鈥檚 most significant university innovation programs awarding nearly $500k to spinoffs and technologies
September 28, 2021 (MONTREAL, Quebec) 鈥� Today 香蕉视频 announced the launch of the McGill Innovation Fund, a funding program that will support both the development of innovative technologies as well as the spinoff companies that emerge from the University.

Lake trout, once the top predator fish across the Great Lakes, reached near extinction between the 1940s and 1960s due to pollution, overfishing, and predation by the invasive lamprey eel. Once showing striking levels of diversity in terms of size, appearance, and ability to adapt to varied environments, now the only lake trout populations to have survived are to be found in Lake Superior and Lake Huron. An international team of researchers from the U.S. and Canada, including researchers from 香蕉视频, have now managed to create a reference genome for lake trout to support U.S.
