A system developed by researchers at the University of Waterloo lets people collaborate with groups of robots to create works of art inspired by music. 

The new technology features multiple wheeled robots about the size of soccer balls that trail coloured light as they move within a fixed area on the floor in response to key features of music including tempo and chord progression. 

As a leader in health research, the University of Waterloo is home to extraordinary researchers who collaborate across fields, turning complex, interconnected challenges into opportunities for global change.

Two research projects have been awarded more than $4 million from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) to improve national-level food policies and make continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices more accessible.

Large-scale melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet is irreversible and happening at a rapid rate, and now a new international study is the first to understand why. 

New research into the impact of climate change on snow sports provides recommendations to increase the climate-resilience of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
