After starting out as a COOP student with Natural Resources Canada, Esme John accepted a position with CFIA where he worked for a few years before returning to NRCan in 2020. Now he works on similar projects to the ones he started as a student and casual employee back in the day, and even sometimes collaborates with his previous department, the CFIA. He enjoys the field work component of his job, such as hiking in Victoria’s vibrant forest to gather and collect specimens of insects and fungi. He also appreciates the supports that are available to him as a Biologist in NRCAN, where researchers with lower mobility can request support from a team of Research Technicians to collect specimens from the fields.

Luchino Cohen works within the Space Life Science Unit at [https://profils-profiles.science.gc.ca/en/research-centre/john-h-chapman-space-center John H. Chapman Space Center] of the CSA. Over the years, he has worked on various projects, where he and his team support research of important technologies and development to reduce astronaut's health risks during spaceflights. To achieve this, his unit does a lot of research, literature reviews, as well as organizing scientific workshops and symposia. You can view some of Luchino’s past research publications by visiting [https://profils-profiles.science.gc.ca/en/profile/luchino-cohen his profile in our Directory of Scientists].
