A first-ever vaccine created by University of Guelph researchers for gut bacteria common in autistic children may also help control some autism symptoms.

The groundbreaking study by Brittany Pequegnat and Guelph chemistry professor Mario Monteiro appears this month in the journal Vaccine.
Peter Tremaine is working towards more efficient carbon-capture techniques. “Greenhouse gas emissions are a huge problem, and we need to do everything we can to keep them under control,” says Tremaine, adding that the group is working on a process that could cut energy costs by one-quarter.
Professor Mario A. Monteiro commented that, "It is very gratifying to our research group that Stellar is taking the lead in commercializing our C. difficile vaccine technology, and to see that our scientific discoveries may soon be available to the public and provide a significant positive impact on global health"

About the Department of Chemistry

The Department of Chemistry includes 20 faculty members who are active in physical, theoretical, analytical, organic and inorganic chemistry. Graduate studies are carried out through the (GWC)2 partnership with the University of Waterloo, one of the largest, best recognized chemistry graduate programs in Canada. Undergraduate offerings cover a full range of programs, many with both regular and co-op streams.

The Department is home of the new Electrochemical Technology Center, and the Molecular and Materials Synthesis Group. The new biological chemistry undergraduate program is a major success.

In 2005, Professor Jacek Lipkowski was awarded the Pergamon Gold Medal for Electrochemistry, the world's premier electrochemical award. University Professor Emeritus Bryan Henry is President of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), the largest Chemical Society in the World. Research grants in Chemistry totalled 2M$ in 2005.
