Fellows come from different areas of study and will get hands on experience in a clinical setting with innovators and experienced mentors. It equips fellows to identify priority healthcare needs and develop their […]

Music Therapy (MT) has the potential to support health and well-being of people with incurable diseases and limited life expectancy. Yet, it is a relatively underused service in Canada. There is a need for non-invasive and non-pharmacological treatment options in Palliative Care because such treatments can sometimes further exacerbate illness (e.g., drug interactions). Research has […]

The strength and behaviour of the Earth’s crust is largely controlled by the presence and nature of plate boundaries—the boundaries that separate Earth’s jigsaw puzzle of tectonic plates. When movement occurs between two rigid crustal blocks, the resulting deformed zone that forms along the boundary is referred to as a deformation zone. Recent research has […]
