Using polymers to develop new materials such as films, membranes, and hollow nanotubes: this research will lead to the development of new cost- and energy-efficient materials with wide-ranging applications that include friction reduction in engines and oil- and water-repellent surfaces.

July 9, 2018

Health promotion for Canadians with mobility impairments: this research will lead to the development of physical activity guidelines for Canadians with a physical disability and strategies to help them meet these guidelines.

July 9, 2018

Exploring the different ways individuals can belong to and participate in society, and how we can recognize this diversity of social membership: this research will help develop new models of inclusive citizenship.

July 9, 2018

Using carbon dioxide as a “trigger” for “switchable materials” able to change from one form to another: this research will make industry safer and more environmentally-benign through the reuse of waste carbon dioxide gas.

July 9, 2018

This research involves studying the determinants of physical activity, and the health problems in children associated with a lack of physical activity.

July 9, 2018

Providing data analytics techniques to support the development and operation of ultralarge-scale software services: this research will ensure that high-quality services are delivered and operated in a cost-effective fashion.

July 9, 2018

Researching the potential for computer-assisted surgery and interventions: this research will enhance the computer-related components of surgery such as medical imaging, scientific visualization, and biosensors for clinical use.

July 9, 2018

Developing new tools to make it easier to rapidly assemble complex natural products: this research will address challenges for affordable health care by developing new tools that could lead to the creation of new drugs and new treatments for serious diseases.

July 9, 2018

Investigating how organic compounds interact with metals in the synthesis of novel materials and development of highly active catalysts: this research will help to develop new catalysts that will be useful in producing pharmaceuticals and state-of-the-art biosensing applications.
