I have exciting news!

This summer, I was part of a team that spent several months writing a grant application to create a new Network of Centres of Excellence. On December 1, the federal government announced that our application, the NeuroDevNet Network, was one of three networks that will be funded!

The NeuroDevNet Network, led by Dr. Daniel Goldowitz, will study ways to reduce the long-term costs to the health care system through early intervention and effective treatment of children with developmental brain disorders. The Network will be hosted at UBC. 

I am very proud to have played a part in this achievement!

A bit more about Centres of Excellence for Commercialization and Research...

The goal of the CECR program is to create world-class centres to advance research and facilitate commercialization of technologies, products and services.

These centres operate in the priority areas of the S&T Strategy: health, information and communications technology, environment, and energy and natural resources.
