Algal growth is accelerating in lakes across Canada, including those far from human development, and a new study shows that climate change is the primary driver.

91�� scientists turn marine waste into a sustainable solution for wound care, wearable devices and more

admin — Thu, 31 Jul 2025 12:59:20 +0000

An interdisciplinary team of 91�� researchers has developed an ultra-strong, environmentally friendly medical glue, or bioadhesive, made from marine waste. The discovery has promising applications for wound care, surgeries, improved drug delivery, wearable devices and medical implants.

“Being able to produce glues that can close wounds  or make something strongly adhere to the skin is critical for many medical interventions,” said Audrey Moores, Professor in the Department of Chemistry.

Scientists edit oat DNA for the first time, paving the way for healthier, more climate-resilient crops

admin — Tue, 10 Jun 2025 13:10:29 +0000

For the first time, scientists have successfully edited oat DNA, a breakthrough that could accelerate the development of oats with more fibre, higher yields, and greater resilience to climate change.

Oats, a key crop both for human consumption and animal feed, are a major agricultural product in Canada, contributing to a global market work $8 billion. The Canadian oat crop is estimated to be worth approximately $900 million. But a short growing season and unpredictable late-season frost mean Canadian oat farmers face significant challenges.

Climate science, community wellness, and career inspiration at the 2025 John Abbott Sustainability Through Science Symposium

On April 11, 2025, over 60 people gathered at the annual John Abbott Sustainability Through Science Symposium to hear how the research of three Macdonald Campus graduate students contributes to a more sustainable future. Honours and science students from John Abbott College, as well as members of 91��'s Macdonald Campus community, were inspired by short talks followed by a panel discussion on the students' university experience and their chosen career paths.

Montreal researchers use AI and wearable sensors to detect inflammation before symptoms appear

admin — Wed, 30 Jul 2025 13:47:07 +0000

Modern medicine is largely reactive—treating illness only after symptoms emerge. But a new study from the Research Institute of the 91�� Health Centre (The Institute) and 91�� points to a more proactive future: one where silent signs of infection are detected before we even feel sick.

Research | Viral DNA sequences in the human genome may help control gene activity, new study shows

admin — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 14:40:53 +0000

Long dismissed as “junk,” viral fragments buried in human DNA may help regulate our genes, according to a new international study co-led by Guillaume Bourque, professor in 91��’s Department of Human Genetics, D2R-funded researcher and member of the D2R Research Steering Committee and Executive (RSC). The findings offer new insights into what makes us human, 25 years after the human genome was first mapped.

Expert: Mental health care access in Canada

admin — Fri, 23 May 2025 13:21:10 +0000

More than half of Canadian girls and young women ages 15 to 29 with a mental health or substance use disorder received formal supports in 2022, but many are deterred by wait times and cost, according to a new Statistics Canada report. The report highlights a need to improve care, especially for racialized youth, who were less likely to find the support helpful.
