History of Agriculture on PEI
The Environmental Studies Book Club Discussion Series
This winter we will be reading and discussing "Time and a Place: An Environmental History of Prince Edward Island" (2016). Our discussions will probe into past and present environmental changes on PEI, and how and why the Islanders are particularly sensitive to environmental issues and enmeshed in their landscape in a way that is unique among Canadians.
During our third discussion we will talk about the history of agriculture on PEI and will focus on the chapters 鈥淭he Fertile Crescent: Agricultural Land Use on Prince Edward Island, 1861-1971鈥� by Dr. Joshua MacFadyen and 鈥淎griculture and the Environment on Prince Edward Island, 1969-2014: An Uneasy Relationship鈥� by Mr. Jean-Paul Arsenault.
We are thrilled that the authors, Dr. Joshua MacFadyen and Mr. Jean-Paul Arsenault, will join our discussion.
Date and time: March 14, 2019 at 4pm
Place: The Fox & Crow, W.A. Murphy Student Centre, 糖心vlog官方入口 campus.

AS part of the Molecular and Macromolecular Sciences Seminar Program, Anayet Kabir will be giving a presentation on "Diatoms Loaded Self-assembled Nanomaterial for Drug Delivery".
A rapidly expanding field that utilizes nature-inspired materials to create novel and functional biomimetics is known as 鈥淏iotemplating鈥�. The diatomaceous earth is an exceptional template for drug delivery applications, owing largely to its highly-ordered pores, large surface area, species specific architecture, and flexibility for surface modifications. Diatomaceous earth have been studied in a wide range of biomedical applications but their potential as the next frontier of drug delivery has yet to be fully exploited. Diatoms are porous silica-based materials obtained from single cell photosynthetic algae. We are evaluating the potential of diatomaceous earth (DE) microparticles for the duel delivery of drugs as cancer therapeutics. The study described the self-assembly of adamantine modified diatomaceous earth in 尾-cyclodextrin architecture to prepare thixotropic gels of varying mechanical properties. The gels produced exhibit excelled drug absorption capacity and colloidal stability under different pH. The co-encapsulation of drugs in diatomaceous earth containing thixotropic materials is studied and their in vitro anticancer activities are evaluated.
This event is Wednesday, March 13 at 12:30 pm in KC Irving Chemistry Centre room 104.
We will have snacks and drinks while talking about what it's like to participate in an international experience.
9:30 am to 11:00 am Monday March 18, 2019.
