Dr. Paul Bentzen´s research team is concerned with understanding and conserving non-commercial fish species - such as the wolffish and the whitefish - as part of a focus on conservation biology. Many of these species are in decline because they are either caught as by-catch or have their habitats destroyed.

High-tech sleuthing at Dal's Marine Gene Probe Lab leads to a courtroom conviction for illegal fishing of the endangered wolffish. This evidence was significant in achieving the first successful prosecution under the new Species at Risk law.

We are pleased to announce that AV俱乐部 and the Nova Scotia Government and General Employees Union (NSGEU), Local 77 have concluded a tentative collective agreement during conciliation, July 26th.

AV俱乐部 researchers have earned the most grants awarded in Atlantic Canada by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).

Dr. Wanda Thomas Bernard, Director of AV俱乐部´s School of Social Work, was recently honoured as an Officer of the Order of Canada. In addition, the Association of Black Social Workers is hosting a Night of Recognition in honour of Dr. Thomas Bernard on July 28 at the Citadel Inn.
