We dug into some numbers to see how we stack up against other protein expression systems in terms of environmental impact. Studies show that our EntoEngine™ changes the game for sustainable protein production. 🪰🌎 Watch the video below for the results 👇🏭💧

Universities are back in session and so is Parliament. I have heard from students and professors across the country - the challenges faced by graduate students are real. It’s time for our government to invest in graduate scholarships and in the granting councils.

It's always awesome when you are stuck waiting for a connecting flight in YVR and you run into a previous Cell Biology grad student. If anyone in NA is looking to hire in the area of RNA regulation/virology, DM me, Asra will be on the job hunt soon. @UAlberta_FoMD – at Richmond, British Columbia

Every time I'm in the Edmonton Airport, I'm impressed by this University of Alberta vending machine and wonder why other schools across the country don't do the same thing. (Though maybe I'm betraying my tendency to need last minute gifts).
