The Canadian Society of Zoologists is committed to promoting zoology education and research at multiple levels while emphasizing diversity and inclusion within its community. The society values and strives to support equality among its members across various demographics, including gender, race, ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation, in all its activities and representations.
The L. Margolis Scholarship, named in honor of Dr. Leo Margolis, an esteemed parasitologist, is designed to support Canadian graduate students engaged in fisheries biology research. This scholarship reflects the society's dedication to fostering educational and research opportunities in zoology, and it is open to Canadians studying in graduate programs at Canadian universities.
