Catherine Febria’s research begins in the smallest streams, where land, water and people meet. Its impact is now being recognized nationally.

For more than two decades, University of Windsor researcher Dr. Aaron T. Fisk has helped change how scientists understand freshwater ecosystems – from how contaminants move through aquatic food webs to where fish travel, feed and spawn across the Great Lakes and the Arctic.

That body of work has now earned Fisk one of Canada’s highest academic honours.

Canada’s relationship with India is the focus of a recent opinion piece by University of Windsor’s Vice-President, Research and Innovation Shanthi Johnson, in The Hill Times. 

Johnson outlines the need for a stronger, more strategic approach to the relationship that recognizes the connections among education, skilled talent, research, entrepreneurship and innovation.
