9th Annual World Wetlands Day Research Symposium at the University of Waterloo
Professor German Sciaini from the Department of Chemistry will introduce you to the new development in his research lab where capabilities of Transmission Electron Microscopy in liquid are pushed to its extreme. You can now take images and even record videos of moving nanoparticles with unprecedented resolution. Learn how WatCo is helping Professor Sciaini's group commercialize his technology, and how various types of Intellectual Property come to play.
In 2015, after documenting testimonies from Indigenous survivors of the residential school system in Canada, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission released 94 Calls to Action to enable reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.
THIS EVENT IS AT CAPACITY AND REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED.
Join alum Corey Rae McRae, PhD ’18, as she shares her career journey and talks about current research.
Corey Rae McRae is the director of the Boulder Cryogenic Quantum Testbed, as well as a research associate at the University of Colorado Boulder and NIST Boulder. Her research focuses on materials and metrology for superconducting quantum computing. McRae grew up in London, ON, and received her PhD from IQC in 2018 from Matteo Mariantoni's group. She credits her research success to cold calling and not being afraid to get in over her head.
Join alum Juan Miguel Arrazola, PhD ’15, as he shares his career journey and talks about current research.
Juan Miguel Arrazola is currently leading the quantum algorithms team at Xanadu, a quantum computing company located in Toronto. Prior to joining Xanadu in 2017, Arrazola worked as a Research Fellow at the Centre for Quantum Technologies in Singapore. He holds an MSc in Physics from the University of Toronto and a PhD in Physics (Quantum Information) from the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo.
Registration for this event is now closed as we excitedly prepare for Friday!
You are invited to attend the Friesen lecture featuring Sir Mark Walport, recipient of the 2020 Henry G. Friesen International Prize in Health Research.
