Research Funding

 

NSERC (Discovery) Research Grants

 

My research activities have been supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) since 1981. By the end of my current 2020-2025 grant, NSERC will have supported me without interruptions for 44 years.

 

I am grateful to NSERC and the Canadian taxpayers.
