Hi everyone, There are cupcakes in the graduate lounge. They were originally for my daughter’s birthday, but because the label says, “MAY contain nuts” (they don’t) her daycare couldn’t serve them. So you all benefit!

Hi all, As many of you know, I'm retiring. My replacement isn't in place yet but Emily.Wolverton(a)umanitoba.ca can help you. I've really enjoyed working with you and will miss you all. An important part of the graduate student experience is connecting with fellow grad students. Prior to the pandemic, grad students knew each other and came together for coffee and social activities. Covid isolated people. There's an iniative underway to bring the department as a whole and grad students together again. I encourage you to reach out to your fellow students, to get to know each other, to discuss, debate and have some fun. I wish you all the very best.

These are large grants with a minimum of $500,000 per year. The proposals are due Oct 2023. One of the project ideas that we as faculty are working on is "Perennializing Canadian Agriculture for Multifunctionality".
