Dawn Bazely is a biology professor in York University’s Faculty of Science. She wears many academic hats, but at heart, is a grass biologist, with forty years of field experience studying grasses and their grazers, including St Kilda\u2019s isolated Soay sheep. Dawn cut her botanical teeth in the sub-Arctic salt marshes west of Cape Churchill. She directed York\u2019s Institute for Research and Innovation in Sustainability for seven years, receiving the university\u2019s Sustainability Leadership Award and the title of University Professor in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dawn\u2019s Zoology doctorate from Oxford University looked at sheep grazing behaviour. Her many scholarly publications include the edited volume, Environmental Change and Human Security in the Arctic (2014). She advocates for excellent science communication, and Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity in STEM, and has received multiple teaching awards. In 2014, Dawn was singled out by the Globe and Mail as York University’s “Hotshot Professor” in their Universities Report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 2006 to 2011, Dawn led the Canadian section of the International Polar Year project, GAPS: Gas, Arctic Peoples and Security. She spent 2011\u201312 on sabbatical as a Bullard Fellow at Harvard Forest, Harvard University, and as a Visiting Researcher in the Biodiversity Institute, Oxford University. In 2018, she was a visiting professor in Environmental Studies, Visva Bharati University, West Bengal, India, where she began Ecotourism research comparing the charismatic megafauna of the Arctic (polar bears) with the Sundarbans (tigers). During the pandemic, she developed virtual field courses, and innovated Frugal Innovation inspired Science from Home Lab kits.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
