Thanks to PhD student Anu Adamson and Michael Metzger, an assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Atmospheric Science, for making the world a little bit better.

This week on Sciographies, meet Dr. Chuck Macdonald, an inorganic chemist and dean of the Faculty of Science. Learn about his path to leadership and some of the big-picture projects he's excited about at Dal.

The Government of Nova Scotia committed $4.5 million to fund a new Dal-operated clinic in Halifax that will provide mental health and addictions services for Nova Scotians who do not have access to coverage through private insurance.

Dal's Space Systems Lab sent Atlantic Canada's first satellite into orbit last year. With a fresh grant from the Canadian Space Agency and a new mission director, the lab is beginning work on its next project: an even bigger satellite outfitted with gear to monitor climate change concerns.

The inaugural Dal Innovates Pitch Day this Thursday provided a chance to meet a new generation of innovators from across Atlantic Canada prepared to take the business world by storm.
