They found many showed changes in blood proteins and gene activity within their first week of life despite appearing healthy.

University of Victoria associate professor Jifa Dorduno says more research is needed.

Studies or more studies like this would better inform the health system and the practitioners with it to be able to treat and recognize conditions like this and, uh, render a quicker, um, treatment.

Sickle cell trait is a genetic condition which can lead to long-term complications and episodes of intense pain.

I can't remember if I've told this story in public before, but I might as well.

I was sitting down in a second year calculus class, one of the earlier classes at the University of Victoria, and the instructor, who I will do the courtesy of not naming here, starts the lecture by going up to the whiteboard and saying, as I'm sure all of you have heard, the World Trade Centers have been completely destroyed, but we're still going to carry on with our classes today.

He was also an avid performer who enjoyed singing show tunes and pop standards.

The models say they should have been altered by collisions, but that's just not what we're seeing.

Morgan's study, along with a complementary study led by University of Victoria PhD candidate Marielle Eduardo, was published September 8 in the Astronomical Journal.

Crash Course on TNOs TNOs are typically small, faint, icy bodies orbiting the Sun beyond the orbit of Neptune.

Most TNOs are more than 100 million times dimmer than objects visible to the unaided eye.

So you just kind of have to do your research when you're traveling around.

I was out in Victoria, BC visiting my mom and yeah, the University of Victoria track was open.

There was another one that was open.

You just look up the hours and find out when you can go on for public use and you'll always meet people on their training.

Canassist is a university-based organization, but community-facing.

So we're absolutely part of the University of Victoria, and our services and products and solutions are available to the greater community, whether that's locally here in Victoria, on campus, or provincially and nationally and even internationally now.

So CanAssist really operates as a center of innovation, and our goal is to make spaces accessible.

And that extends well beyond the built environment or physical locations.

The other services that we provide within education that ranges from continuing education training content for early child care providers.

There are practices and processes that child care providers can implement either at the individual educator level or or as an operator, or as a leader in childcare to raise the capacity of childcare to be able to care for youngsters who have more support needs.

We also provide continuing education courses through the University of Victoria.

And our CanWorkBC platform, which is a provincial-wide tool that's supporting youth around employment resources.
