The Town Hall is an opportunity for Science leadership to listen to concerns from our Science community on racism and discrimination of all forms, from overt acts to those more unconscious in nature. The goal is for us to gain a better understanding of the problems facing Black, Indigenous and People of Colour. We hope to provide our Science Anti-Racism Taskforce with sufficient directions to formulate mitigation strategies so we may work together to become an inclusive academic society without racism.
The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology Member Seminar Series is a monthly event that showcases the incredible work by faculty members, students and researchers in the institute. This seminar series will highlight Prof. Melanie Campbell and two of her students - Peter Neathway and Yunyi Qiu. The Campbell optic's lab researches the human eye, optical systems and disease diagnosis.

Did you know that software code is protected by Copyright? Have you paid someone to write code for you? If so, did you ask them to waive their Moral rights to the code?
Come to the Copyright talk and learn about the different forms of Copyright protection, how to use it to commercialize your technology, and how it may affect you and your software.
A key skill to have as a scientist is to be able to digest new information rapidly. In this workshop we'll dive into the essentials of how to read a paper.
In the wake of COVID-19, many in the Waterloo community are overwhelmed with questions and uncertainty about the pandemic and its effects on our well-being, health and economy. University of Waterloo experts are available to share their knowledge and answer questions from the community.
A case study which explores aspects of how to use the main forms of Intellectual Property (IP) protection to commercialize technology. This is an interactive case study that allows the participants to experience a realistic situation where they get to see how IP can be applied to protect and commercialize a potentially valuable technology created by a group of university students.
