Ted Allison

Professor at U_Alberta, Edmonton. Mostly Neuroscience: Evolution of retina, visual system development and Alzheimer/Prion/TBI via zebrafish.

[University of Alberta @UAlberta]

Meet Xavier Penetrante, a third-year honors neuroscience student at the U of A researching traumatic brain injury at the Allison Lab.

Working with Dr. Ted Allison and Dr. Tanja Zerulla, Xavier studies the behaviour and cognition of zebrafish larvae to support impactful research on neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's. From a U of A ambassador to a student researcher, Xavier is making an impact in both science and advocacy.

I'm so proud of the work Shayleen is leading in @ualbertaScience

[University of Alberta @UAlberta]

Meet Shayleen Ghassemi, a PhD student at the University of Alberta exploring how space affects brain health.

Her research on microgravity and cosmic radiation is heading to the International Space Station. From undergrad to pioneering neuroscience in space, Shayleen is making an impact in both science and advocacy. https://t.co/18xnR2IIQm

#JosephLister, surgical pioneer, was born #otd 1827. One of our favourite things @TeviotPlace relating to him is this trowel he was given for laying the foundation stone of Montreal General Hospital Jubilee Nurses' Home in 1897. It comes with a beaver carrying a maple leaf 😍🇨🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
