Dr. Qingping Feng has been working over more than two decades on a treatment for sepsis that could potentially save millions of lives. He’s a researcher at Western University and was named the 2020 WORLDiscoveries Vanguard Innovator of the year. H and his team developed the protein annexin A5 into a pharmaceutical that may become the world’s first effective treatments for sepsis. Dr. Feng suggests the product could become a treatment option in about five years. Learn more about Dr. Feng’s research and the development of this new treatment: https://bit.ly/32l5Bb5

A team of researchers at the University of Waterloo developed a palm-sized device that uses radar and artificial intelligence (AI) to non-invasively read blood inside the human body. This new technology will be able to quickly and accurately monitor glucose levels in people with diabetes without the need to prick your finger to draw blood. Researchers are now exploring commercialization of this technology; they estimate the device would retail for less than $500. The project was led by Ala Eldin Omer an engineering PhD student at Waterloo. Learn more about how this device works and what are its potential applications: https://bit.ly/2TpfNdI

The COVID crisis has created larger employment losses for women than for men and is also harming women’s labour market. Family economics theories that explain why and how households form and how resource sharing within households takes place are particularly useful in understanding these phenomena and make predictions. This talk will provide a quick overview of these theories. Join us next Thursday, November 19th to learn more about gender and family economics during the COV...ID-19 crisis on our upcoming live webinar with representatives from Université Laval and Universidad del Rosario.

The University of Calgary is one of the few places in Canada with a Biosafety Level 3 Lab (BSL-3), this lab allows scientists and clinicians to further their research into vaccines and treatments for COVID-19 and other infectious diseases. Researchers from the University will soon have access to a BSL-3 lab, this facility will also allow them to study the complete life cycle of the virus, starting at the point of infection. The BSL-3 labs are built with a separate heating and ventilation system to ensure pathogens can never escape. Learn more about all the type of research that can be done at a BSL-3 lab: https://bit.ly/38jxJPB
