Warren Cardinal-McTeague Awarded Canada Research Chair Position

June 14, 2024 | Author: UBC Forestry

UBC Forestry is pleased to congratulate Dr. Warren Cardinal-McTeague on being named Canadian Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples, Governance and Environmental Relations.

About Warren’s Research

Warren Cardinal-McTeague

Warren’s research centres on plant biodiversity, Indigenous relationships with the land, and the monitoring of ecosystem health and function. His work seeks to address questions about how plant biodiversity has evolved, and how we might use that information for trait improvement and environmental sustainability. As an Assistant Professor in the Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, Warren’s approach to research and teaching blends together science, art, Indigenous perspectives (specifically Métis and Cree), and the decolonial return of land and lifeways.
