The research developed by Prof. Ricardez-Sandoval has been generously supported by a network of collaborators from the federal government, i.e. Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), Mitacs, and CanmetENERGY, which is a part of Natural Resources Canada; the provincial government of Ontario, i.e. Ontario Centres of Excellence (OCE), Ontario Research Fund (ORF), and the Early Researchers Award (ERA) granted by the Ministry of Research and Innovation; and private companies in the analytical services and manufacturing sectors. In addition, we have welcomed international visitor scholars that have been supported by different domestic and international agencies, e.g. Emerging Leaders in the Americas Program (ELAP), Canada-Brazil Science Without Borders and Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologia, Mexico (CONACYT). We would like to extend our sincere and deepest gratitude to all our federal, provincial and industrial partners that have supported our research projects!
