Anita Layton has been named Canada 150 Research Chair, as part of the Government of Canada’s - Canada 150 Research Chairs Program. Layton is the chairholder for her work in Mathematical Biology and Medicine.
A $350,000 investment per year for seven years will support Layton’s research on the mathematical and computational modelling of blood flow dynamics and kidney function. Layton’s computational methods have been adopted by others to solve mathematical equations arising in combustion, blood flow and other problems.
Our modeling study which predicts functional implications of the sexual dimorphism in transporter patterns along the proximal tubule has been accepted for publication in Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. In that study, we developed sex-specific computational models of solute and transport in the proximal convoluted tubule of the rat kidney. The models account for the sex differences in expression levels of the apical and basolateral transporters, in single-nephron glomerular filtration rate, and in tubular dimensions.
Hongjing Chen successfully defended her MSc thesis this week. With a title " Wet Snow Mapping in Southern Ontario with Sentinel-1A Observations" she defended the work successfully and managed to complete the minor corrections in quick time. Congratulations Hongjing on your fine work and good luck with the next phase of your career! Read more about Congratulations to Hongjing Chen on her successful MSc completion
