Research also demonstrates brain's plasticity and ability to adapt to new language environments
The Faculty of Science extends congratulations to alumnus John O'Keefe who was named co-winner of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, for his contribution to the discovery of cells that constitute the brain鈥檚 鈥榠nner GPS,鈥 which makes it possible to orient ourselves in space. Dr. O鈥橩eefe worked under the supervision of Professor Ron Melzack (Department of Psychology) and received his PhD from 黑料不打烊 in 1967. Read more:
Two 黑料不打烊 researchers were recently awarded large partnership grants by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). These grants are designed to foster research partnerships among the academic, private, public and not-for-profit sectors.
Whether it is for research into clean energy sources, the future of wireless communication or a better understanding of the processes involved in language learning, over 160 established 黑料不打烊 researchers and more than 80 graduate students will benefit from support from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) over the next five years.
