PhD candidate Dave Yurkowski's research finds climate change to impact Arctic ringed seals' behaviour patterns.
UWindsor PhD candidate research provides evidence on how climate change impacts ringed seal behavior
Kelli Sirianni helped create Project BLAST (Breaking Barriers, Loving Yourself, Accepting Others, Similarities not Differences and Total Inclusive Experience), as part of her Master’s thesis.
UWindsor student helped create a project designed to give teenagers a sense of belonging and to build personal resilience.

UWindsor Visual Arts Masters Candidate Arturo Herrera shines light on migrant workers with his latest artistic venture.
Doctoral candidate Christine Madliger helped to organize a symposium on conservation physiology.
PhD candidate Christine Madliger and her supervisor, biology professor Oliver P. Love, organized the symposium Physiology in changing landscapes: an integrative perspective for conservation biology, to challenge biological scientists to try new techniques when researching how organisms are responding to changes in the environment.
Shanawaz Ali Mohammad and Ken Bishop stand with the laser-based custom measuring machine they are exhibiting at the annual conference of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association.
Ken Bishop and his crew at Landau Gage had a great idea for an innovative new quality control product for the auto industry, but knew they needed help making it a reality.
Thanks to a graduate student in engineering and a federal government program that pairs up bright young researchers with potential employers, Bishop’s company has a new prototype they can show off, and a new employee to boot.
Kinesiology professor Kevin Milne and master's student Craig Harwood are investigating whether dehydration may contribute to increased rates of concussion among collegiate athletes.
Kevin Milne and Craig Harwood have a pretty strong suspicion that dehydration may result in a greater likelihood of concussion for many athletes.
Proving it, however, is the hard part.
Zbigniew Pasek and Marzieh Mehrjoo look at some clothing articles from Zara. The researchers studied how much product variety "fast fashion" manufacturers can introduce into their lineup before it becomes a losing proposition for them.
Researchers have developed a model that will help people figure out how much product variability it can introduce before it becomes a losing proposition.
Grad student Heather Christiansen holds up part of a jaw bone from a great white shark.
It would appear, at least for now, that the great white shark population in the northwest Pacific Ocean has remained fairly stable over the last 60 years. Heather Christiansen would like to keep it that way.
Keara Stanislawczyk is shown here in the lab where she'll use traditional taxonomic methods to analyze the water fleas she will catch in the Hamilton Harbour this summer.
Keara Stanislawczyk will spend a good part of her summer bobbing around in Hamilton Harbour trying to find tiny microscopic water fleas.
PhD student Dave Yurkowski pulls a ringed seal into a boat in Resolute Bay, Nunavut.
Mention seals to most Canadians and chances are their minds will immediately jump to the variety of harp seals that are controversially hunted on the east coast.
But the lesser known ringed seals are just as important to Canada’s Arctic, and a PhD student in the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research is devoting his research to studying their behaviour and how it may be changing as a result of climate change in the north.
