大象传媒

大象传媒 Biological Sciences student Emily Lucas came to 大象传媒 with lots of curiosity about the living world and she used a variety pack of volunteer, undergraduate research and co-op experiences to help her home in on what she wanted as a career.

鈥淚t has been four years of thoroughly enjoying what I have been learning,鈥� she says.

鈥淚've always been interested in the smaller things like cells and bacteria and how that all works. I think how living things work and continue on is truly amazing, the story of how we've got here today and how, you know, the tree outside did too.鈥�

She was always interested in research and got involved early with a volunteer role studying blueberry genetics in Jim Mattsson鈥檚 lab. She went on to complete an NSERC USRA with Julian Christians studying the relationship between maternal stress and offspring health and a directed study course in undergraduate research.
