Meet the Team

Graduate Students

Our MSc students are trained as independent scientific researchers and gain valuable experience on world class experimental techniques and undergraduate supervision.  

Undergraduate Students

Our undergraduate students receive first-class training in a myriad of experimental techniques.  As a student at one of the best undergraduate institutions in Canada, our undergraduates are integral contributors to the scientific process. They are afforded opportunities to gain valuable knowledge in experimental design, while working along side the PI and a dynamic team of graduate students and regional, national, international and industrial collaborators.
