Anna Panchenko, the Tier 1 CRC in Computational Biology and Biophysics, talks about how the CRC program allows her to focus on her research, gives her research visibility among her peers, and opens the door to collaborations.

In an effort to increase collaboration and create a greater sense of community, the Office of the Vice-Principal (Research) at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 hosted its first Canada Research Chair (CRC) networking event. Speaking at event were new CRC chairholders Anna Panchenko, Lindsay Morcom, and Heather Aldersey, in an effort to highlight the diversity of research happening at the university.

카지노 게임 컬렉션Collaborations are at the heart of science, they allow each one of us to see the big picture from different angles,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Dr. Panchenko. 카지노 게임 컬렉션CRC events bring together CRC researchers from different fields, this opens tremendous possibilities for interactions and collaborations.카지노 게임 컬렉션

Dr. Panchenko is the Tier 1 CRC in Computational Biology and Biophysics; Dr. Aldersey is the Tier 2 CRC in Disability and Inclusive Development; and Dr. Morcom is the Tier 2 CRC in Language Revitalization and Decolonizing Education.

Dr. Panchenko works in the field of cancer research and is studying how mutations arise in DNA and then spread throughout the body.

카지노 게임 컬렉션These areas of study require new computational methods and techniques,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she explains. 카지노 게임 컬렉션My laboratory develops algorithms to understand cancer progression at the molecular level to come up with new targeted therapeutic strategies.카지노 게임 컬렉션

The CRC program, Dr. Panchenko says, allows her to focus on her research, gives her research visibility among her peers, and opens the door to collaborations.

Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s currently is home to  46 CRC chairs and the university taking part in a national effort to meet new equity and diversity targets amongst chairholders. The university has developed an action plan to identify potential barriers to equity and inclusion in the CRC program at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and specific actions to address them.

The Office of the Vice-Principal (Research) (OVPR) is responsible for ongoing monitoring and updating of this plan and, in concert with the Provost카지노 게임 컬렉션s Office, Deans, and departments and units, ensuring that the it is successfully enacted.

카지노 게임 컬렉션I believe diversity helps drive the progress in science and in the world,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Dr. Panchenko. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Recognizing and acknowledging differences in views and opinions is a crucial step in scientific thinking, it allows scientists to overcome the confirmation bias.카지노 게임 컬렉션
