The VDBChem Group has grown this fall, with the arrival of Leigh (PDF) and Danial (MSc) from abroad, and Melodie continuing with the group (MSc) for our research on indoor reactive nitrogen instrumentation . We also have Lindy (MSc) and Alessia (PhD) joining us for a new project investigating the atmospheric deposition of perfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) into at-risk whale habitat (http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/species-especes/publications/mammals-mammiferes/whalereview-revuebaleine/summary-resume/beluga-eng.html, http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/species-especes/publications/mammals-mammiferes/whalereview-revuebaleine/summary-resume/killerwhale-epaulard-eng.html).
