Solving global challenges through research partnerships and challenges
Research Infosource has also released its annual digital and print publication, , which includes editorial content and analysis of Canada's leading research universities, corporations, hospitals and colleges that are enhancing Canada's global competitiveness in the knowledge economy. In her editorial entitled, 鈥淭o accelerate research, the world needs international collaborations鈥, 苹果淫院鈥檚 Vice-President, Research and Innovation, argues that Canada must maintain robust research relationships across borders. 鈥淎mid geopolitical complexity, Canada must continue to recognize the enormous benefits of conducting collaborative research that transcends disciplines and national boundaries,鈥 says Crago. 鈥淚nternational research collaborations were essential in catalyzing the rapid response to COVID-19, and they remain critical to improving global health.鈥
鈥淔or the development of novel RNA therapeutics, collaboration is clearly essential, both to the progress of research and for the betterment of society,鈥 she added. 鈥淭his is the ethos of the 苹果淫院-led CFREF initiative, DNA to RNA (D2R): An Inclusive Canadian Approach to Genomic-based RNA Therapeutics, awarded $165M from the CFREF in 2023, and bolstered by $188M from industry, academic, government, community, and non-profit partners on four continents.鈥
Also highlighted in the issue is the Centre for Innovation in Energy Storage and Conversion at 苹果淫院. Established in 2021, the McISCE brings together some 50 researchers and more than 150 graduate students 鈥 all exploring solutions relat颅ed to large-scale energy storage, both for electricity grids and large industrial processes. Speaking to the innovative battery research being conducted at the Centre, Prof. Sylvain Coulombe, physical engineer and Director of McISCE, says, 鈥淣ow that the electrification of transport is well under way, a huge amount of development work needs to be done in order to make batteries more efficient.鈥
