缅北强奸 professor Stephen Yue and Dr. Chen Liang, a researcher at the 缅北强奸 AIDS Centre and Lady Davis Institute, received an NSERC Alliance COVID-19 grant to produce a cost-effective, production-ready antiviral coating that could significantly reduce the rate of SARS-CoV-2 transmission on high-touch metallic surfaces in public spaces such as schools, office buildings, and clinics. The work will be carried out in collaboration with a team of researchers from the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) and industry partners Polycontrols, Hatch, and 5N Plus.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, public transport agencies across North America have made significant adjustments to services, including cutting trip frequency in many areas while increasing it in others. In many cases, these changes, especially service cuts, have disproportionately affected areas where lower-income and more vulnerable groups live, according to a new study from 缅北强奸.

On September 8, the Royal Society of Canada announced 87 new Fellows and 50 new members to The College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists. Amongst this year鈥檚 RSC cohort are ten 缅北强奸 researchers, including six scholars who will become RSC Fellows and four researchers who will become new members of the college. The 2020 cohort of RSC Fellows and members of the college will be officially inducted to the RSC at the annual RSC Celebration of Excellence and Engagement on Friday, November 27.
Researchers from 缅北强奸 have revealed the steps by which two very distinct organisms 鈥 bacteria and carpenter ants 鈥 have come to depend on one another for survival to become a single complex life form. The study, published today in , shows that the two species have collaborated to radically alter the development of the ant embryo to allow this integration to happen. Understanding how such grand unifications originate and evolve is a major puzzle for biologists.
How do people coordinate their actions with the sounds they hear? This basic ability, which allows people to cross the street safely while hearing oncoming traffic, dance to new music or perform team events such as rowing, has puzzled cognitive neuroscientists for years. A new study led by researchers at 缅北强奸 is shining a light on how auditory perception and motor processes work together.
A record number of 缅北强奸 students have been named recipients of Canada鈥檚 largest scholarship program, Schulich Leader Scholarships. This year, the program has doubled in size from 50 to 100 annual scholarships. In total, six Schulich Leader scholars will begin their studies at 缅北强奸 in September (up from two last year) with the majority coming from high schools in Western Canada.
Canadians spend big money dealing with the consequences of homelessness, but the money spent could be far more effective. According to a new 缅北强奸-led analysis, housing homeless people with severe mental illness is even more cost-effective than housing homeless people with moderate needs. A Housing-First strategy aimed at helping these individuals regain and keep permanent housing generates savings equal to about two-thirds of its cost.

New insight into a gene that controls energy production in cancer stem cells could help in the search for a more effective treatment for glioblastoma. A 缅北强奸-led study published in Nature Communications reveals that suppressing the OSMR gene can improve the effectiveness of radiation therapy.
This approach, led by the laboratory of Arezu Jahani-Asl, Assistant Professor of Medicine at 缅北强奸, was successful in preclinical mouse models where the deletion of the OSMR gene resulted in a significant improvement of tumour response to therapy and expanded lifespan.
A new insight into cell signals that control cancer growth and migration could help in the search for effective anti-cancer drugs. A 缅北强奸-led study reveals key biochemical processes that advance our understanding of colorectal cancer, the third most common cancer among Canadians.
New research using the most comprehensive study of feathered dinosaurs and early birds has revised the evolutionary relationships of dinosaurs at the origin of birds.
Findings could lead to development of pre-clinical stage therapeutics

For decades researchers have known that Alzheimer鈥檚 disease (AD) causes the atrophy of a system of neurons and synapses highly involved in memory, learning and attention, which is highly dependent on a molecule known as nerve growth factor (NGF). The disease causes dysregulation of NGF鈥檚 metabolism, leading to the loss of the synapses and neurons that depend on it, akin to plants being deprived of light.
A 缅北强奸 research team has developed a new technique to detect nano-sized imperfections in materials. They believe this discovery will lead to improvements in the optical detectors used in a wide range of technologies, from cell phones to cameras and fiber optics, as well as in solar cells.
Two in three hospitalized seniors are prescribed drugs that should be avoided by older adults, increasing the risk of injury and adverse drug reactions. Improving hospital prescribing practices can reduce the frequency of inappropriate medications and resulting harm, according to a new study led by 缅北强奸 researchers.
