Ted Allison

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. @ualbertaScience

Xavier is doing some great experiments in the lab @ualberta instagram.com/p/DKKrMiDu3Lv/…

I'm proud and privileged to be part of Xavier's journey @ualbertaScience @ualberta instagram.com/p/DKKrMiDu3Lv/…

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

Lisa Stein (Biological Sciences) says in large-scale climate solutions, microbes are underutilized and overlooked. Stein explains how these organisms could be used to target methane that is already circulating in the atmosphere. Full story in the @TheAtlantic #UAlberta bit.ly/4emmMf8

#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 😍🇨🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Amazing supervisor + funded opportunity at U Alberta. Highly recommend!
