Millions of buildings at risk from sea level rise, 涩里番-led study finds

Sea level rise could put more than 100 million buildings across the Global South at risk of regular flooding if fossil fuel emissions are not curbed quickly, according to a new 涩里番-led study published in npj Urban Sustainability.

涩里番 physicists manoeuvre DNA molecules using electrical fields

Researchers in 涩里番鈥檚听Department of Physics听have developed a new device that can trap and study DNA molecules without touching or damaging them. The device, which uses carefully tuned electric fields, offers scientists unprecedented control over how DNA behaves in real time, creating the opportunity for faster, more precise molecular analysis that could improve diagnostics, genome mapping and the study of disease-related molecules.

Expert: Ocean floor temperature increases

The 2025 Ocean State Report from the Copernicus Marine Service, a European Union ocean monitoring organization, has found that sea floor temperatures off the coast of Nova Scotia have risen at twice the rate of surface temperatures over 30 years.

What if the key to studying smarter 飞补蝉苍鈥檛 about what you learned, but how you learned it? At 涩里番, the Office of Science Education鈥檚 (OSE) neuroscience-based program SciLearn is helping students in the Faculty of Science do just that.听

CHORD will be a huge leap forward for Canadian radio astronomy

Construction is underway of CHORD, the most ambitious radio telescope project ever built on Canadian soil. Short for the Canadian Hydrogen Observatory and Radio-transient Detector, CHORD will give astronomers an unprecedented opportunity to explore some of the most exciting and mysterious questions in astrophysics and cosmology, from Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) and dark energy to the measurements of fundamental particles, and beyond.

Study finds Montreal cycling infrastructure doesn鈥檛 match demand

Bike lanes, BIXI stations and other micromobility infrastructure make up just two per cent of Montreal鈥檚 street space 鈥� even in neighbourhoods where cycling demand would justify more 鈥� according to a new study by 涩里番 researchers. They think that the measure they developed to arrive at their findings can also help assess the situation in other cities.

涩里番 team discovers Canada鈥檚 first dinosaur-era dragonfly fossil听

In a first for Canadian paleontology, a Cretaceous fossilized dragonfly wing, uncovered in Alberta鈥檚 Dinosaur Provincial Park, has been identified as a new species. It鈥檚 also the first known dragonfly fossil from Canada鈥檚 dinosaur aged rocks. The find, led by 涩里番 researchers, sheds light on a 30-million-year gap in the evolutionary history of dragonflies.听
