A 快播视频 professor is one of four scientists recognized for outstanding research achievements in atmospheric and climate science, and is the only awardee representing a Canadian university. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Cora Young<\/strong>, a professor and the Rogers Chair in Chemistry at York\u2019s Faculty of Science<\/a>, is a 2025 recipient of the Atmospheric Sciences Ascent Award, presented by the American Geophysical Union.<\/p>\n\n\n

The award highlights mid-career scholars whose research advances understanding of the physics, chemistry and science of the atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI feel extremely fortunate to work with talented students and collaborators and am deeply honoured to have our research recognized through this international award,\" says Young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young is an environmental chemist widely recognized for developing techniques that show how pollutants move through the atmosphere and influence air quality and climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her work ranges from tracking long-lasting chemicals such as PFAS \u2013 a group of synthetic, long-lasting chemicals \u2013 to inventing new ways to measure pollutants in different environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through her research, Young has increased scientific understanding of how emerging pollutants and greenhouse gases behave. She leads the CJY Group<\/a> \u2013 a team of researchers developing novel measurement approaches to increase understanding of chemical processes in the environment \u2013 with a focus on climate change, air quality and the transport of organic contaminants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since joining the University in 2017, Young has earned significant recognition that reflects her influence in environmental and atmospheric chemistry, including the Early Career Research Award in 2022 from the Canadian Institute of Chemistry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
