This collection contains notes, abstracts, and correspondence relating to 7 research articles by Dr. Turel, as well as a copy of her PhD thesis.

This fonds contains correspondence; minutes; reports; working papers; briefs and submissions; both for the Advisory Planning Committee on Medical Care, and for the Oil and Gas Conservation Board. Additionally, there is material from Thompsons's tenure as President of the University of Saskatchewan; material related to the International Botanical Congress and the International Congress of Genetics; and several reference books, primarily dealing with Medicare in Canada and abroad.

This fonds documents the academic career of William Maher, including correspondence with colleagues; research notes and logs, drafts, and articles; together with numerous film images of wildlife.

This fonds documents Professor Hammer's research interests (including much data from Saskatchewan and Alberta lakes) and publication record. Also included is material relating to Dr. Hammer's service with such groups as the Water Studies Institute and the Saskatchewan Environmental Society and a file of minutes and memoranda documenting his term as Biology Department Head.

Documents in the fonds relate to the National Research Council - International Biological Program Natural Area Survey - Conservation Terrestrial Saskatchewan Region. Most regions of Canada had an IBP Committee working toward the establishment of a Natural Area system. The Sask. provincial program started in 1968. Fieldwork began in 1969 with 95 areas were selected for the inventory.

This collection contains research notes, diaries, and printed material dealing with entomology (in particular, the study of midges), bonsai, and the classification of birds. The photographic material includes subjects relating to Saunder's research; views from his extensive travels (including Egypt [1932]; Ceylon [1932]; Brazil [1923]; Hong Kong and the Far East [1932]; and North America, particularly Emma Lake [1939-1943].

This fonds consists of notes, record books, and reports concerning Rawson's limnological research: particularly his studies done in Prince Albert National Park (1928-1934); the national parks areas of the Rocky Mountains (1935-1941); Riding Mountain National Park; Reindeer, Athabasca, and Great Slave Lake; and Lac La Ronge, Amisk Lake, and the Churchill drainage system (1942 onward). Additionally, there is considerable correspondence with a number of Rawson's colleagues and with various national organizations. The fonds also includes speeches, maps, and lecture notes. There are also photograph albums which contain family images, images of research trips, and of various flora and fauna.

This fonds contains correspondence with teachers, government officials, colleagues and the general public concerning plant specimens, diseases, identification and equipment.

Fonds primarily includes administrative and research files relating to the Matador Project and the International Biological Programme at the Canadian and international levels.

This fonds reflects Dr. Fowke's career as a researcher and professor at the University of Saskatchewan.

This fonds contains correspondence, annual reports (1942-1986), budget records, committee minutes, and course outlines (1972-1990) relating to all aspects of the administration and activities of the department. Included are a blueprint and files relating to the construction and opening of the W.P. Thompson Biology Building.

Dr. Lacalli's research involves the embryology and larval forms of marine invertebrates: principally, the development of the nervous system and the formation pattern in these organisms. His work has included theoretical, computer-based studies of how pattern and formation appear de novo in embryos as they develop, and microanatomical studies (primarily, via serial electron microscopy) of the developing nervous system in simple invertebrates near the evolutionary stem from which vertebrates, with their advanced nervous system, evolved. The process developed by Lacalli enabled an image of the whole body of their specimens in one micrograph, a relatively rare achievement and one which enabled him to analyse the nervous system in far more detail than was previously possible. This fonds contains an extensive collection of the electron micrographs taken by Lacalli, together with research notes, offprints, and other documentation relating to his research activities

This fonds contains administrative files from the department of Biology, various grant applications, and material concerning Professor Naylor's involvement with the Genetics Group, the Saskatchewan Health Research Board (specifically concerning radiation), and the Royal Society. There are also several data books and statistical reports from Naylor's research with wild oats, Kochia scoparia, Setcreasea purpurea, and Aspergillus. In addition, there is a considerable amount of correspondence with colleagues M. Lakshmanan, M. Jast, S. Jana, B. Henderstein, E. Hutchinson, W. Newcomb, S.C. Price, G. Setterfield, M. Shaw, R. Tobin, J. Woodard, M. Black, and S. Achary. It also contains a copy of Naylor's thesis, "The Control of DNA Synthesis and Bud Inhibition through Plant Growth Substances," along with some of his published and unpublished manuscripts.

This fonds includes records relating to the development and maintenance of Regina Waterfowl Park (part of the Wascana Authority); preservation of grasslands; and other material relating to Saskatchewan's parks and natural history.

This fonds contains Professor Arnason's genealogy; correspondence regarding W.P. Thompson's retirement; material relating to the planning and formal opening of the Biology Building; and information concerning the Faculty Association.
