BIOGRAPHY:
Dr. Haley Hunter is a recent PhD graduate from the Serpe Lab at the University of Alberta where she studied smart polymers and their use in developing color-changing sensors. While pursuing her studies, Haley focused on being involved in the community and spending time engaging others in the remarkable world of science. Haley’s current position is as a Chemistry Lab Instructor at MacEwan University.

TALK DESCRIPTION:
What are point-of-need sensors? Why should we be developing them? How can they help our environment? Our health care system?
