Jan 29th, 2014

The Faculty of Science has plenty of reasons to celebrate, and a spotlight was shone on about 100 of them Friday.

The faculty held its annual Celebration of Success at Vanier Hall, where about 100 students, faculty, staff and post-doctoral fellows were recognized for all of their accomplishments throughout the year.

Dean Marlys Koschinsky said the event provides her faculty with an opportunity to acknowledge all of the tremendous effort put forth on a regular basis by people who are continually striving to be the best.

Studying in Windsor pays off for PhD student

Jan 24th, 2014

Coming to Windsor might have been the best move ever for a young Chinese engineering graduate student who’s trying to improve the performance of hybrid electric vehicles.

“It’s been really good for me,” said Xiaomin Lu, a PhD student who will soon return to Windsor after a productive six-week trip to India to conduct more research. “If I had stayed in China, I never would have had the opportunity to experience so much.”

International cancer research initiative closer to reality with donation

Jan 20th, 2014

The first true international cancer research corridor in North America is one step closer to being launched in Windsor-Essex, thanks to a recent contribution from Windsor Regional Hospital.

In late December, hospital board chair Gay Wrye presented the Windsor Cancer Research Group with a cheque for $25,000 as part of a matching challenge grant program.
