Global Bio Summit 2023: Learning from Nature using Neurons and Logic Gates
Arushi Nath. Grade 8 Student. The Bio Summit is a global community of Do-It-Yourself biologists, biohackers, biomakers and members of community laboratories. It has been coming together annually since 2017 to share, discuss, collaborate and frame the future of independent research in the life sciences. This year, the 6th Global Community Bio Summit was held...
Tractability and Fidelity
One of my favourite parts about mathematics is its definitive nature. Once you’ve proved a result, it’s true for all of time. We can be confident that the chain of reasoning will hold, even without inspecting every part. This feature of mathematics has let us build incredible structures, and as a bonus, tools to help...
Budgeting is a Tool to Improve Lives of People – Use it to Maximize Public Good: My Depute to the Budget Committee, Toronto
Arushi Nath. Grade 8 Student. Toronto. Budgeting is essential to producing public goods and services we enjoy daily. It decides the level of financing available, which determines the quantity in which that good can be produced and how many people can benefit from it. In simpler terms, if there is no money in the budget,...
Expand, Do Not Cut Public Transit: My First Depute to the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Board Meeting
Arushi Nath. Grade 8 Student. Youth groups are one of the strongest users of many city-provided public services. These include public parks, transit, libraries, community centers, city-run recreational programs, and museums. Thus they are affected by decisions made by city governments. And disproportionately, too. Young people must bear the long-term consequences of all decisions made...
’Exploration of M31 via Black Hole Slingshots’ …
Happy 2023! Amazingly enough, the blog machinery still works after several idle years. This post and the next are about a preprint posted on arxiv, back in October: Andrew Gould’s “Exploration of M31 via Black Hole Slingshots and the ‘Intergalactic Imperative”. This paper is a fascinating mix of garden-variety astrophysics and wild speculation that I...
Finishing is a Superpower
When I was completing my master’s degree, I was excited to be working on new research. While some students in my cohort worked on understanding the literature, my supervisor gave me a novel project we thought we could eventually publish it. The concept was simple and straightforward, motivating me to build the experiments, collect the...

ArcticNet is a Network of Centres of Excellence in Canada to study the impacts of rapid natural, climate, health and socio-economic changes in the Arctic. It does so by partnering with Inuit organizations, northern communities, federal and provincial governments, and...
BrainHack Toronto 2022: Neural Oscillations, Flickering Lights and Open-source Biosignals
Arushi Nath. Toronto. BrainHack is a global network of collaborative events that bring together experts, enthusiasts, students and the curious to learn, collaborate and develop projects related to brain and neurosciences. The Covid-19 pandemic meant that for the last few years, BrainHack events could only be held virtually. BrainHack Global Toronto 2022 – a part...
