Dr. Emma Allen-Vercoe’s microbiome research, featured at yesterday’s Council of Ontario Universities event, shows how #UofG is advancing life sciences by uncovering how microbes influence health and resilience across species, from humans to honeybees.
ALT Emma Allen Vercoe is at the booth with two of her students, including Brendan Daisley and Christine Macpherson.
