Discovery and innovation will be in the spotlight this Thursday night (November 14) as researchers from across Nova Scotia gather for the 22nd annual Discovery Awards.

Dalhousie graduate student Dina Rogers is no stranger to sharing her groundbreaking research. She won the people’s choice award at the 2024 3MT competition at Dalhousie and now has taken an even bigger prize in the 2024 Falling Walls Lab pitch competition: first place in the Science Breakthrough of the Year in the Emerging Talents category.

Dalhousie’s Dr. Christine Chambers and her colleagues at Solutions for Kids in Pain (SKIP) are encouraging hospitals to adopt Canada’s first Pediatric Pain Management Standard, which gives institutions like Halifax’s IWK Health Centre additional tools and support to prevent and treat the chronic pain one in five Canadian children endure.
