Next-Generation Enabling Technologies for Diagnosing Disease and Monitoring Therapy

Abstract

The À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) is comprized of many talented faculty members, students and researchers from various backgrounds of study. We wanted to showcase their incredible work through our Member Seminar Series! Each month a professor and 2 of their researchers will present their research to our community. This series is an opportunity for our WIN community to come together, learn about ongoing research and potentially foster new partnerships between students, faculty and labs.

The À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) is pleased to present a Seminar Series talk by Professor David H. Waldeck, a distinguished professor at the University of Pittsburgh and Director of the Petersen Institute of NanoScience and Engineering.

Adventures with Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity

Abstract

This introductory workshop is designed to give staff, students, and faculty a broad understanding of equity and how our interactions with one another are shaped by systems of oppression, power, and privilege. During our discussion, we will explore the ways in which inequities, biases, and microaggressions affect our lives as individuals and communities.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

The À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Institute for Nanotechnology is pleased to present a Seminar Series talk by Professor Mike Fleischauer, an Associate Research at the NRC-Nanotechnology Research Centre (NRC-NANO, Edmonton), an adjunct professor of Physics at the University of Alberta, and on the City of Edmonton’s Energy Transition Advisory Committee.

In-situ Characterization of Lithium-rich Battery Electrode Materials

Abstract

Did you know that the top five most valuable brands in the world in 2018 are all technology companies?

According to Forbes the most valuable brand in the world in 2018 was Apple (#1) with an estimated value of nearly $183 Billion dollars. By comparison, Coca-Cola's (#6) brand value in 2018 was over $57 Billion.

Come to the Trademark presentation and learn how to use this form of Intellectual Property (IP) protection to build the brand value of your technology or Start-Up.

University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ has long been known for researchers who are entrepreneurial thinkers and industry partners. At the core of entrepreneurship is Intellectual Property (IP) Rights Policy #73, also called "creator-owned," which grants ownership to the inventor. It's the engine for driving commercialization success of research-based innovations and may be the most entrepreneurial oriented IP policy in North America.

We are living in times of extraordinary advancement of technology. A significant contribution to this innovation is coming from companies that were just a group of students a few years ago doing their graduate research, and now their ideas have grown to become multimillion international businesses. These successes would not have happened without access to educational resources and tremendous support. The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ has entrepreneurship embedded in its DNA.

The À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Institute for Nanotechnology is pleased to present a Seminar Series talk by current UÀ¶Ý®ÊÓƵ graduate student Nathaniel Smith and McMaster University teaching Professor Matthew Jordan.

This seminar is being delivered via WebEx. If you do not already have the WebEx app or browser installed, you will be prompted to do so to join the meeting.
