NSERC CANPOLIN Canadian Pollination Initiative

NSERC-CANPOLIN [1] is a new, five-year NSERC Strategic Network that started in 2008, and that will address the growing problem of pollinator decline in agricultural and natural ecosystems in Canada.

The network is led by SES Emeritus Professor Peter Kevan. Researchers at 26 universities across the country are working with government agencies, NGO’s and industry to deliver critical insights and sustainable solutions to the pollination problem.

NSERC-CANPOLIN [1] offers an exciting and unique approach to pollination research.

For the first time, leading experts in entomology, ecology, plant reproductive biology, genomics, prediction and economics have joined forces to explore the full scope of the pollination problem – from pollinator health and conservation to gene flow in plants, the impact of climate change and the economics of pollination.

For more information, see the NSERC-CANPOLIN [1] home page.

The University of Guelph’s SES distinguishes itself from other environmental science programs in that it comprises a true integration of the life and physical sciences to address important environmental problems in forest, aquatic and agro-ecosystems.
In addition to our unique research capabilities, the SES is committed to providing a learner-centered environmental science education to undergraduate and graduate students – one that is second to none in North America.
