Dr. Judy Illes and Dr. Melissa Perreault work with Indigenous researchers globally to advocate for and educate about Indigenous neuroethics. According to Perreault, their goals are twofold: to ensure research with communities is done ethically, and to demonstrate how Indigenous knowledge can enrich Western approaches to neuroscience.
Imagine a liquid that moves endlessly, without resistance — so smooth that it seems to defy the laws of physics. Researchers at UBC have observed this rare phenomenon in a molecular system for the first time.
As bird flu swoops across media outlets, UBC researchers are working to better understand and monitor this disease.
In a study published in Nature Communications on February 12, the pair along with other researchers in the UBC Faculty of Medicine discovered a new type of brain cell called ovoid cells that play a key role in our ability to recognize and remember objects.
Three adult groups in BC have hearing health costs covered by the provincial health care system — people with disabilities, veterans (who are primarily covered federally) and workers who develop hearing loss due to work-related noise exposure, thanks to WorkSafe BC. The rest of the population? No coverage.
Many of us remember the genderbread person from Tumblr days of yore and know that gender doesn’t equal sexuality. But what about when they come together and influence each other for the better?
In a world where every online search can yield thousands of results, it can be challenging to access accurate and easy-to-understand health care information.
Many are familiar with the racing heart and sweaty palms that can come with public speaking. This anxiety and the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has inspired professors at the Peter A. Allard School of Law to create a courtroom simulation, aimed to help first-year law students learn courtroom speaking skills.
Imagine sitting in the movie theatre, enveloped in complete darkness. The walls absorb every speck of light, immersing you fully in the cinematic experience. This sensory journey may soon be made possible by Nxylon (pronounced niks-a-lawn), a new material created by researchers from the Faculty of Forestry that absorbs over 99 per cent of visible light.
Earlier this year, UBC researchers from the Centre for Wildfire Coexistence released a study suggesting six interrelated strategies to help improve BC’s resilience to the impacts of wildfires. The study drew from 2023’s record-breaking fire weather, with 2245 active fires.
As the days get shorter, the weather gets colder and the sun begins to hide behind grey clouds, it becomes harder and harder to stay positive, especially as a university student. With major deadlines happening as it seems to rain endlessly, it becomes harder to find a light at the end of the tunnel (literally).
Water, Together, a documentary by UBC alum and water treatment engineer Dr. Karl Zimmermann, features water stories and perspectives from water leaders worldwide and empowers local communities to lead their own water management solutions through a three-step process: awareness, education, and resources.
Dr. Johan Foster, an associate professor in the department of chemical and biological engineering, and his team have developed a possible solution to trap and break down highly resilient ‘forever chemicals’ found in water sources.
Our everyday diets provide insight into our way of life and surroundings. For archaeologists in the Lower Mainland, reconstructing the Səl̓ilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) diet prior to colonization is helping researchers understand the relationships between people and their territories.
