Donations up to $15,000 will be matched! Any amount makes a difference. Read about the long journey of how this scholarship, the first of its kind at SFU, was developed: sfu.ca/science/news/2…
So fortunate to work with this dedicated graduate student EDI committee. For over a year we've had our sights set on launching this scholarship fundraiser and today it is live! I hope you'll consider donating!
We are announcing the launch of a grassroots fundraising campaign for a scholarship to support Indigenous & Black grad students in @SFUBioSci @SFUScience @SFU! Please join us in reaching a $30,000 endowment to benefit students for years to come! give.sfu.ca/ways-to-give/f…

Em Lim (@sea_en_emily) is a non binary queer biologist and scientific diver! They're studying sea cucumbers in the Côté lab, an animal they love so much they cried tears of joy while holding one. Em is at @BamfieldMSC this summer studying the role of cukes in nutrient cycling!

Jo Enns is a queer MSc student studying evolutionary ecology in the Williams lab! Her project looks into the biparental care behaviour of the European starling. When she isn’t bothering birds, she can be found playing animal crossing or staring at her mountain of video data

Steven Brownlee (@sfbrownlee) is a gay freshwater ecologist! I’m modeling the invasion of dreissenid mussels in BC, working in the Côté and Moore labs. I can usually be found hunched in front of a laptop, pretending that looking at lakes from space still counts as fieldwork!
