Research made by collaboration: Partnership Engage and Development Grants听

Partnership Engage Grants (PEG) provide short-term and timely support for partnered research activities between researchers and single partner organizations from the public, private or non-profit sector. Partnership Development Grants (PDG) provide support over one to three years for teams working in formal collaboration between postsecondary institutions and/or organizations of various types in the social sciences and humanities. Professor Robert David (Desautels Faculty of Management) and Assistant Professor Christine Stich (Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Occupational Health) received PEGs totalling more than $24,000 each.

With the support of the PEG, David will partner with Farmers' Markets Ontario (FMO), the only provincially recognized association of farmers' markets in Ontario. Farmers鈥� markets are an important outlet for local food products, yet farmers at times struggle to gain access to these markets while non-local products are often widely available. A lack of transparency often ensues, and consumers may be unable to discern local from non-local products. David鈥檚 project aims to develop knowledge of how an industry association such as FMO can define, maintain, and communicate the boundaries of what it means to be a farmers' market, and ultimately, promote local growers and consumer access to local food.

Stich has partnered with Dans la rue (DLR), a non-profit organization that supports youth at risk of or experiencing homelessness in downtown Montreal. Their project aims to better understand how DLR鈥檚 services, such as an emergency shelter and a day centre offering music and art workshops, influence youths' well-being and, ultimately, their trajectories out of homelessness. Designed as a community-based participatory research initiative, the project prioritizes issues identified by community participants and pays attention to power differentials between groups and individuals at all stages of research.

The recipient of a $200,000 Partnership Development Grant, Marie-Jos茅e Fleury, Professor in the Department of Psychiatry, will examine homelessness and housing stability in Montreal. Together with a multidisciplinary team and key stakeholders in Montreal, Fleury is researching the challenges and issues related to the residential stability and social integration of individuals experiencing homelessness across different permanent housing models. By comparing the impact of private, social, and community-based housing on user outcomes from the perspective of both users and administrators, the study can provide insights to improve the implementation and selection of housing models that will best meet the needs of users and promote their recovery.

Investing in researchers鈥� infrastructure needs: The John R. Evans Leaders Fund

Thirty 成人VR视频 researchers received grants totalling $10 million through the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI)鈥檚 John R. Evans Leaders Fund. The recipients also received matching funds from the Quebec government for their research endeavours for a total research investment of over $20 million. The JELF helps universities attract top talent in diverse fields of research by providing them with the highly specialized research infrastructure they need to excel.

"I would like to thank the CFI and the Government of Quebec for their generous investments in world class research and innovation through the John R. Evans Leaders Fund,鈥� said Martha Crago, Vice-Principal (Research and Innovation). 鈥淭hrough this Fund, 成人VR视频鈥檚 talented researchers can acquire the cutting-edge tools and infrastructure they need to embark on ambitious projects across disciplines, including tackling climate change through machine learning, and advancing the critical work of vaccine development. My congratulations are extended to all the researchers who received funding today.鈥�

Among the thirty researchers who received funding through the JELF is Udunna Anazodo, Assistant Professor and William Dawson Scholar in the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery. With the grant, Dr. Anazodo and co-investigator Professor Pedro Rosa Neto, of the Department of Psychiatry, will acquire an ultra-high-resolution positron emission tomography (PET) device that will be integrated into a whole-body ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system to study astrocyte dysfunction, a significant biological process related to Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia. This world-first ultra-high-resolution PET/MRI system dedicated to brain imaging will enable novel discoveries in neuroscience across biological scales, at unparalleled spatial precision.

For researchers, nature can provide guidance to design functional materials in a sustainable manner, offering solutions to pressing environmental challenges. With JELF funding No茅mie-Manuelle Dorval Courchesne, an Associate Professor in Chemical Engineering and a Canada Research Chair (Tier II) in Biologically-Derived Materials, will acquire state-of-the-art spectroscopic and imaging tools to study marine mussels, and specifically their byssus 鈥� a material featuring a tough, self-healing fibrous core covered by a hard yet flexible coating 鈥� at the nanoscale. The research findings can be applied to creating sustainable polymers, developing wearable devices, and advancing tissue engineering techniques.

The devastating impact of COVID-19 on health and the economy has underscored the importance of basic research and domestic vaccine capacity. With JELF support, Paul Wiseman, Professor in the Department of Chemistry, and co-applicant Brian Ward, Professor in the Department of Medicine, will focus on vaccine development, specifically how plant-made virus-like particle (VLP) influenza vaccines interact with the immune system. Although the vaccines produced using this Canadian-developed technology work, there are fundamental questions about their mechanisms of action, including transport, delivery, and receptor binding, that need to be understood to fully exploit their potential. The project will utilize a state-of-the-art laser scanning microscope to track VLPs in immune cells, optimizing immune responses, and inform preparedness efforts against future infectious challenges like pandemic influenza.

Transport professionals across Canada are facing complex challenges as they work to achieve sustainability goals and increase the use of active transport such as cycling, walking, and public transit. El-Geneidy鈥檚 program aims to equip cities with the appropriate tools needed to transition to sustainable transport modes by generating practice ready research, and training highly qualified practitioners. Among the six projects led by El-Geneidy is a study to understand the practicality of adopting policies such as the 15-minute city鈥攖he concept that city dwellers should be able to access all their destinations within 15 minutes through walking or cycling鈥攊n Canada. El-Geneidy is also analyzing the changes in the elasticity of public transit demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic and new teleworking policies.
