The world moves fast, and UBC Faculty of Applied Science students deserve an educational experience designed to keep pace.  Dr. Naoko Ellis and Dr. Xun Liu are our two newest Marshall Bauder Chairs in Innovation in Interdisciplinary Education, who will be championing just that.  Over the next three years, they will craft the institutional infrastructure needed to develop meaningful, interdisciplinary learning experiences and teaching tools for students and educators alike. Their work draws from and builds upon the Applied One ethos: a commitment to connecting disciplines around the challenges that matter most. Creating an educational framework for interdisciplinary learning Dr. Ellis, a Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the UBC Vancouver campus, aims to design a Faculty-wide educational framework to support collaborative learning, interdisciplinary research, professional practice and community engagement. “Universities are increasingly challenged to prepare graduates who can work across disciplines, engage with complexity and lead meaningful societal change,” said Dr. Ellis.

You might not notice it gazing out from the shore, but water ages. As it gets older, it loses the oxygen dissolved in it, used up by marine life, bacteria, and chemical reactions – and without a trip to the surface and the open air, it can't get that oxygen back. We know that warmer water holds less oxygen, and that climate change will therefore 'age' the oceans faster, with potentially dramatic effects on underwater ecosystems. What hasn't been clear so far is how this shift is going to play out over different regions. To get more clarity, a team led by researchers from the University of California, San Diego ran a simplified ocean circulation model 100 years into the future, looking at how warming might affect different parts of the ocean and its oxygen levels. The team's results, published in AGU Advances, identify and explain what seems to be a paradoxical future scenario: 'young' water getting older, and 'old' water getting younger in the years ahead. The study modeled ocean warming impacts on oxygenation.

Editor’s note: To mark the 20th anniversary of the publication of Richard Dawkins’s bestseller The God Delusion, Stephen Meyer took to the pages of The Telegraph. His essay prompted 2,000+ reader responses. A recurrent challenge was the “Who designed the designer?” objection. Writing in the comments section, Dr. Meyer offered three separate replies. Find the original article here. Many readers posed the “Who designed the designer?” objection to my design argument based on the digital code in DNA. As Dawkins says elsewhere, “a designer God cannot be used to explain organized complexity [in life] because any God capable of designing anything would have to be complex enough to demand the same kind of explanation” which raises the “problem of who designed the designer.” As my op-ed noted, this argument misappropriates Ockham’s razor by claiming it prohibits invoking complex entities (such as minds), when instead it cautions against invoking complex hypotheses with a multiplicity of explanatory entities (as the multiverse does).

African countries' bargaining power won't come automatically from holding critical-mineral reserves; it comes from the institutional capacity to read partners' actual dependencies and regulatory timelines early. Global power increasingly resides in regulatory frameworks, carbon benchmarks, and supply-chain rules, which determine market access long before any shipment leaves port.

25 min read | Published on 29 September 2026 Executive summary As traditional DEI efforts face scrutiny, many organizations are finding it difficult to sustain progress on inclusion. Pulling back can hurt employee trust, weaken workplace culture, and make it harder to attract and keep talent. Leaders need a practical path forward that supports inclusion, business performance, and manager effectiveness. Catalyst developed gender partnership to meet this need. Gender partnership is the mechanism; gender equity is the outcome. It brings people of all genders together to share the responsibility of removing stereotypes and barriers so everyone can contribute, grow, and succeed. A survey of nearly 5,000 employees across five countries1 points to a clear relationship between gender partnership and business outcomes. When managers demonstrate Catalyst’s 5 Bs of Gender Partnership — Begin with you, Break down what’s not working, Build up what’s in it for men, Bridge gender gaps, and Bring humanity to work — employees are much more likely to see their organization as a place people want to work, as a strong competitor, and as prepared for the future.

A few years back, I wrote a column about the state of youth sports today. Since that time, as much as I’d like to say we’re headed in the right direction as a society, I’m not sure we are. From college NIL (name, image and likeness) ”win-at-any-cost” rituals to high school “phenom campaigns” that place young athletes on far too high a pedestal, I don’t think we’re “getting it” yet as a culture.  Permit me to recapture much of what I wrote back then, and to underscore the rays of light I do see, especially within the Detroit Catholic High School League.  What I said back then holds true today, at least from my perspective. Sports programs aren’t what they used to be, at least some of them. Thankfully, many in the Catholic League still hold true to what’s important. But unfortunately, there are far too many sports programs — high school and college — that appear to be races to nowhere. Before I delve further, let me say this: I love sports. I’m the first one to say “yes” to a college football game, and the last one to be watching sports until Sunday night. And living in a house full of girls who don’t share that same affinity, it can be a challenge.

Lamine Yamal led World Cup winner Spain on Tuesday as it defeated Croatia in the Nations League to add to its record unbeaten streak in its homecoming game. Yamal scored twice and set up another goal as Spain beat Croatia 4-1 at home to reach 40 matches unbeaten. It was Spain's first home game since it won its second world title in July. Before the match, captain Rodri lifted the World Cup trophy in front of a raucous home crowd at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium in Seville. Spain got past Croatia in its second game since beating Argentina in the World Cup final, with Yamal scoring two minutes into the match and again in the 63rd. Marc Pubill also scored, finding the net in the 31st for his first goal with Spain, two minutes after Dion Drena Beljo had equalized for the visitors, also with his first international goal. Substitute Nico Williams sealed the Spain victory in the 89th. Yamal gave the assist for Pubill's goal. He has scored 11 goals in his last eight matches for country and club Barcelona. "He is a very generous footballer who puts all that talent at the service of the team,' Spain coach Luis de la Fuente said. 'We are fortunate to have him with us.
