Library of Parliament Seminar
Organized by:
Canadian Federation of Biological Societies (CFBS)
and
Library of Parliament
In 2005 CFBS formed a partnership with the Library of Parliament to develop
a series of Life Science seminars. These seminars were designed
to provide information that could be of interest to parliamentarians when
considering new legislation. The lectures in this series have
included:
- Dr. Allison McGeer, Director, Infection Control,
Mt Saini Hospital, Toronto who spoke on Protecting Canadians
from Foreign Infectious Agents;
- Dr. Ted Sargent, Canada Research Chair Nanotecnology,
University of Toronto who presented " The Dance of the
Molecules:Nanotechnology is Choreography", and
- On March 23, 2007 Dr. Norman Huner, Canada Research
Chair & Director Biodrome Project, University of Western Ontario,
London, presented the third lecture in this Life Sciences Series entitled
"The Biodrome Project and Climate Change"
.
These seminars took place in the West Block of the Parliament Buildings
and were open to parliamentarians and their staff.
