Solutions to some of society’s most important challenges require the right regulatory environment to drive innovation. Examples include pioneering models for access to educational materials, reimagining collaborative ways to transfer technology to fight climate change, and laying the groundwork for equitable access to life-saving medicines.

Concussion is the most common brain injury impacting 400,000 Canadians annually, yet research to date has primarily focused on professional and high-performance athletes or military veterans, with little effort to integrate data collection across the full spectrum of patients. This siloed approach has greatly restricted the potential for new discoveries in brain health and insights related to indi...

The evidence of rapid climate change over the past few decades is urgently compelling us to rethink our relationship with our own environment. We know that the actions we must take are numerous and complex. But among these actions, the need for human communities to preserve and defend the diversity of our natural spaces is central to the strategies recommended. The situation finds its parallel in ...

What if we could see the real-time movement of electrons, those tiniest of particles that power our technology and our lives, in unimaginable detail? For Professor Zenghu Chang, the newly appointed Canada Excellence Research Chair (CERC) in Attosecond X-ray Photonics at the University of Ottawa, this is not a distant dream; it’s an imminent reality that his CERC hopes to soon bring about.

Roughly 80% of Canadians have unmet legal needs. Research shows that while most Canadians can identify a legal problem when they’re facing one, many aren’t sure what to do about it or don’t think the legal system can help. “That’s an access to justice problem,” PhD student Natasha Jaczek told a roomful of students taking part in this year’s Solutions Lab.
