Using rheometers to study the motion and alignment of long-chain molecules that produce sticky, gooey, elastic liquids, like melted plastics: this research will help support Canada’s plastics industry by shedding light on the intricate inner workings and motions of complex fluids, such as polymer molecules.

Understanding how proteins work and how to modify them by protein engineering: this research will lead to better sub-zero storage of cells, tissues, organs and foods as well as new drugs to decrease ischemic injury, and may also identify methods to prevent bacterial infections.
