Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Akhter’s presentation will be a gentle introduction to chemical, ecological, and physiological\u00a0concepts of phytoremedition, and provide thought-provoking consideration of the\u00a0strengths and drawbacks of plants’ ability to sequester, alter and redistribute metals in a variety of ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Presenter:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The topic of phytoremediation is one that is near and dear to Dr. Akhter’s heart and has informed much of her research\u00a0career. Her work\u00a0has ranged from\u00a0examination of\u00a0cadmium toxicity in human food crops\u00a0to metal toxicity in natural and constructed\u00a0wetlands in the Athabasca oil sands region.<\/p>\n
