Public health is something that has an impact on all of us - but over recent years, public health has been thrust into a bigger spotlight.
Trust in science, academia and public health is critical to maintain strong public health for the future. We explore how trust in public health has changed, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, and what can be done to address those changes, on this episode of the USask Signature Series podcast.

How often do you think about the environment you live in?
Our houses, our towns, our cities, our communities - we have surrounded ourselves with our "built environment."
But as populations grow and move, the we have to ask ourselves: how do we make sure our built environment is healthy, safe and sustainable for us and for future generations?
We explore a few of the facets of a sustainable built environment in this episode of the USask Signature Series Podcast.

The University of Saskatchewan (USask) is home to Canada's only synchrotron.
The Canadian Light Source at USask gives researchers at the university and around the world an opportunity to explore scientific questions down to the molecular and atomic level with the help of the synchrotron's beamlines.
But what exactly does a synchrotron do, and how does it advance scientific curiosity and innovation?
We shine a light on the power of the synchrotron in this episode of the USask Signature Series podcast.

Do you ever think about where your power comes from when you turn on your lights?
Host: Matt Olson Producers: Matt Olson and Leslie-Ann Schlosser Audio Producer: Wayne Giesbrecht Graphics and Marketing: Lindsay Herman Original Music created by Silas Friesen
The world is looking for new sources of energy - but the global energy transition won't happen with the flick of a switch. The research and the resources has to come from somewhere, and Saskatchewan is home to both.
On this episode we explore how the energy transition will take shape, the future of critical minerals and nuclear power - and the role both Saskatchewan and Canada will play.
