From cognitive impairment to heart failure, brain and heart conditions pose one of the world’s biggest health-care challenges, exceeding all others in so-called “disease burden” and mortality rate. In Canada, the economic cost of heart disease, stroke and dementia alone is over $55 billion per year, and rising.

At the pandemic’s outset, uOttawa researcher Michael Organ was approached by Toronto Research Chemicals (TRC) to create a flow reactor that manufactures a key molecule used to prepare PCR test kits to diagnose COVID-19. Billions of tests have since been performed around the world thanks to his flow reactor technology.
