Cara was a work learn student in the Karakochuk lab between 2018-2019, leading a pilot research study on the iron status of female varsity athletes. Cara was instrumental in leading this research over the past year and is now drafting a manuscript on her findings (stay tuned!). She also assisted the team with another pilot study investigating the nutritional status of children with sickle cell disease at BC Children’s Hospital. Thank you Cara, for all of your work. A well-deserved award!
The Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism Undergraduate Research Excellence Award series is presented by Canadian Science Publishing (CSP) in partnership with the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology and the Canadian Nutrition Society, and recognizes outstanding senior undergraduate students who are enrolled in exercise science and nutrition major programs at participating Canadian universities and colleges. Congratulations, Cara!
