The pivotal moments of a researcher\u2019s journey often go unseen by the public, occurring in remote locations or in tucked-away laboratories. But the breadth and diversity of research endeavors at Canadian universities should be celebrated and shared widely.<\/p>\n
At Queen\u2019s University, for the sixth consecutive year, faculty, students, staff, and alumni have drawn on their creativity to share their work through \u201cThe Art of Research\u201d photo contest. \u201c[The competition] takes us behind the scenes, bringing to life what our researchers experience in the lab, the archives, and the field, in the pursuit of new knowledge,\u201d said Michael Fraser, vice-principal, university relations.<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s contest has been re-imagined through the lens of the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals, with each winner aligned with one or more of the 17 global calls to action. \u201cOur audiences are interested in how research is helping to change the world and this striking collection of images tells a visual story of our wide-ranging impact,\u201d said Mr. Fraser.<\/p>\n
