In a new study published recently in the journal Science, researchers from Spain-based AZTI Technology Centre, in collaboration with SFU and the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF), have developed a global indicator that measures the state of marine biodiversity based on changes in extinction risk recorded over seven decades in oceanic predatory fishes (52 populations of 18 different species of tuna, billfish and sharks)./sfunews/media/media-releases/2022/11/new-tool-developed-to-monitor-health-of-marine-ecosystems-and-ex2022-11-14T17:07:00.000Z2022-11-14T17:09:30.713ZAmericans more likely to share COVID-19 misinformation online: SFU studynoemail@noemail.orgmkieltykPeople living in the United States are more than three times more likely to share misinformation and conspiracy theories about COVID-19 than people in four other English-speaking countries, including Canada, a 尤物视频 study has found./sfunews/media/media-releases/2022/11/americans-more-likely-to-share-covid-19-misinformation-online--s2022-11-07T18:15:00.000Z2022-11-07T18:17:53.797ZWomen healthcare workers faced heightened moral distress during pandemic: studynoemail@noemail.orgmsa238New research highlights the challenges women healthcare providers (HCPs) experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic which contributed to heightened moral distress, providing insights into ongoing professional burnout. /sfunews/media/media-releases/2022/10/women-healthcare-workers-faced-heightened-moral-distress-during-2022-10-26T16:00:00.000Z2022-10-26T18:01:00.486ZGenomic data can improve pandemic modelling, SFU researchers saynoemail@noemail.orgmsa238/sfunews/media/media-releases/2022/10/genomic-data-can-improve-pandemic-modelling--sfu-researchers-say2022-10-21T16:00:00.000Z2022-10-20T22:37:32.371Z SFU Research: Healthy Aging Requires An Understanding Of Personality Typesnoemail@noemail.orgmsa238New research shows that older adults may be better supported as they age when their personalities are considered鈥攆or example, are they more like orchids or dandelions?
