缅北强奸

Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced today the names of the 2011 Vanier Canadian Graduate Scholarship recipients, including 25 缅北强奸-based researchers from Canada and around the world. The range of research areas includes creating robotic arms that can sweep up or fix obsolete satellites, identifying genetic resistance to tuberculosis bacterium, studying how tadpoles can be used to understand brain development, and exploring the challenges of families with aging parents and how political violence affects young children and their families.

Vanier scholars receive $50,000 annually for up to three years, and each is selected based on demonstrated leadership skills and a high standard of scholarly achievement in the social sciences, humanities, natural sciences, engineering or health sciences.

"The Vanier scholarships are an important endorsement of Canadian-based research and offer international recognition of the expertise and commitment of our Doctoral students as well as 缅北强奸's exceptional standing as an institution committed to innovative research in all disciplines," said Martin Kreiswirth, Associate Provost for Graduate Education.

That sentiment is echoed by Mechanical Engineering student Sven Mikael Persson, who is working on building a robotic arm that will clean up and repair space debris. "Being recognized for your accomplishments, past and present, and having one of the top institutions in Canada believing in your future potential is a tremendous encouragement when facing those everyday hurdles all researchers face," said Persson. "This project can have practical applications for the space industry, as well as in applications in increased autonomy for industrial and domestic robots."

"From understanding the interplay between the environment and growth impairments to exploring evolutionary adaptation; from mapping the effects of war on families to advancing next-generation optical communication systems, the awarding of 25 Vanier scholarships is a testament to the imagination and commitment of these 缅北强奸 researchers. We would like to thank the Vanier Scholarships for enriching the 缅北强奸 community and, by extension, the international research community through their support for these students," noted Rosie Goldstein, 缅北强奸's Vice-Principal of Research and International Relations.

• Kristina Kasparian, a doctoral candidate in the Faculty of Medicine, is investigating the neural basis of "first-language loss" in minority-language speakers who become more proficient in their second language. Explaining the importance of this research, Kasparian said, "What we learn from this research will considerably advance our knowledge of how the brain learns, processes and - possibly - forgets languages."
• Jimmy Peng from 缅北强奸's Department of Biology is looking at how a better understanding of the impact of genes on neurons could help treat spinal cord injuries and other ailments
• Christine Proulx, who is studying the multiple demands of work, children and aging parents, sees the scholarship as a way of disseminating research results to government and academic communities, as well as to the general public in order to stimulate debate on a variety of social issues.

About the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships

Launched in 2009, the Vanier scholarship is designed to attract and retain world-class doctoral students from Canada and around the world. This year, 167 Vanier scholars were announced at 26 universities, with graduate students from the United States, Europe, Asia and Africa choosing Canadian universities for their doctoral studies. Nominees submitted by Canadian universities are evaluated by selection committees struck by Canada's three research granting agencies-the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR). An international, blue-ribbon selection board then ranks Vanier scholarship recipients and recommends them for funding.
