Here are some of the experiences our QES-AS Dr. Natalia Hoyos-Botero from #Uninorte #Colombia shares with us during her placement at the #UniversityoRegina!

Mauricio Bedoya was in a meeting with EPCOR's staff in the Water Excellence Lab located in Edmonton (Alberta). As part of his experience, this QES Scholar is examining the climate sensitivity and historical trends in groundwater levels in the North Saskatchewan River Basin. The overall result is a piece of support for EPCOR’s Climate Change Strategy. #QEScholars

In order to understand and reconstruct past climate and environmental changes in the region of Eastern Andean Colombian Cordillera, we are performing different analysis on sediment cores collected in Lake Tota, the deepest high altitude lake in Colombia. This is an update on what Jaime Escobar, an Early Career Research from #Uninorte, #Colombia is working on through the QES-AS program! #QEScholars #Climatechange #UniversityofRegina

Please consider supporting our #QEScholars Matthew Noakes from #UniversityofPretoria, South Africa who, with our support, will be participating in the #MSBike ride to raise funds for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) research. The ride will be approximately 55 km around Waskesiu Lake, a town in Prince Albert National Park, Saskatchewan. MS is an autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system. The cause of MS is not currently known, but is thought to be a combination of gen...etic and environmental factors. The prevalence of MS in Canada is higher than anywhere else in the world, with the highest rate occurring in Saskatchewan. Matthew aims to raise $1000 CAD for MS research. We would highly appreciate any help to get him closer to his goal! Feel free to share his profile, linked below, with your friends, family, and anyone else you think might consider making a contribution. #UniversityofRegina #UofR #ThisIsMS #PrinceAlbertNationalPark #PrinceAlbertNP #ParksCanada #PANationalPark #Waskesiu MS Society of Canada - Saskatchewan Division Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada

We joined in Canada fun run. Although, It was my short marathon, I got the long friendships. Thank you QEScholar for good opportunities, new activities and best memory in Canada. #Canadaday2018 #QEScholars
