Induction to the RSC is one of the country’s highest honours in the arts, social sciences and sciences. The RSC College recognizes the emerging generation of Canadian intellectual leadership; members of the College are individuals who are at an early stage in their career and have demonstrated a high level of achievement.

Her research pioneered the use of airborne DNA to study biodiversity at continental scales. Clare is a popular science communicator volunteering for multiple STEM mentoring groups, and she hosts the BioAudio podcast for university students.
