Dr. Gary Stern is an Associate Professor at the University of Manitoba's Clayton H. Riddell Faculty of Environment, Earth, and Resources, affiliated with the Centre for Earth Observation Science (CEOS). He holds a PhD in Analytical Chemistry (Mass Spectrometry) from the University of Manitoba (1992) and teaches courses in analytical mass spectrometry.
- Academic Background: PhD, University of Manitoba (1992)
His research focuses on environmental contaminants in Arctic ecosystems, oil spill impacts, and remediation technologies. He co-leads Genome Canada’s GENICE projects on Arctic oil spill preparedness and directs the PETRL (Petroleum Environmental Research Laboratory). He chairs the Churchill Marine Observatory Board of Directors and was awarded the Governor General’s Polar Medal (2016) for Arctic service.
Recent publications emphasize hydrocarbon analysis in marine sediments, oil behavior in sea ice, and microplastic contamination in Arctic environments. His work bridges analytical chemistry with ecological and engineering solutions for Arctic environmental challenges.
- Scientific Awards: Governor General of Canada’s Polar Medal (2016)
Advising: Current student Agoston Fischer (MSc). Research leadership includes multi-million-dollar projects and cutting-edge laboratory infrastructure.
