A study from University of Ottawa and the Ottawa Hospital shows immune deficits in space are transient, and disappear back on Earth. Scientists have shown that the expression of (mostly protein-coding) genes in white blood cells changes rapidly when astronauts reach the International Space Station. This may explain why astronauts appear more susceptible to infectious diseases while in space. Most ...

Scientists from the University of Ottawa have invented a unique method to create better molecule-based magnets, known as single-molecule magnets (SMMs). This synthetic tour de force has resulted in a two-coordinate lanthanide complex which has magnet-like properties that are intrinsic to the molecule itself. This discovery opens the door to high-density hard disks, quantum computing applications, ...

When patients are suspected of having a primary brain tumour, also known as a glioma, they typically undergo a biopsy or a resection — procedures that involve surgically removing a sample of the tumour to further analyze it. Biopsies help oncologists confirm the existence of a tumour and determine whether it’s malignant or benign. This data also guides oncologists in choosing the proper course of ...

The future looks bright. It has been a long, arduous road for the Class of 2023, yet they learned to adapt, develop a good dose of resilience, and didn’t let a global pandemic stop them from achieving their goals. These thinkers, makers, dreamers, and doers - all 8,677 of them - will celebrate their hard-earned accomplishment over the next few days, as the University of Ottawa hosts its Spring Con...
