Postdoc award will help advance water treatment work

Daniel Grégoire, a Waterloo chemical engineering researcher, has been awarded a Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship to continue his research on the effects of pollutants in aquatic ecosystems.

The fellowship will provide Grégoire $70,000 annually for two years.

“Ultimately, I want to use my expertise to develop sustainable water treatment strategies that limit the environmental impacts of industrial activity,” he says on his LinkedIn page.

Grégoire was one of three campus-wide to receive the Banting award announced last week.

The Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program provides funding to top postdoctoral applicants, both nationally and internationally, whose research will benefit the country's economic, social and research-based growth.

Daniel Grégoire is developing new sustainable water treatment strategies.
