Congratulations to Maddy Lutes on completing the 2024 IndigiNerds summer program through the McMaster Indigenous Research Institute!

Maddy made important contributions to the SUN Team, Nunavut Research Institute, and Government of Nunavut Climate Change Secretariat research through her work identifying climate change research locations and exploring trends across Nunavut. Her research contributes to the broader “Making Research Work for Nunavummiut” project.

Many thanks to the Canadian Cancer Society for their generous funding supporting Maddy’s research in the program and an ongoing research assistantship with our team for the summer! Learn more about the IndigiNerds program and Maddy’s research in the McMaster Daily News story.

Thanks for all your hard work Maddy, and your dedication to being a student athlete (Marauders women’s volleyball)!
