Today the Faculty consists of more than 140 professors and 99 full-time support staff, and offers undergraduate and graduate programs to more than 2 900 students in five departments: Biology, Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Mathematics and Statistics, and Physics. It also oversees the undergraduate program in Biochemistry. Over the years, the Faculty of Science has become a true centre of excellence, earning recognition across Canada and abroad for its prowess in the classrooms and the laboratories. Researchers within the Faculty are pursuing some of the most significant and relevant scientific matters of our day including molecular biology, genetics, biopharmaceutical sciences, environmental genomics, catalysis, nanotechnology, applied modern mathematics and statistics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">Visit them at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.research.uottawa.ca\/office.html\">www.research.uottawa.ca\/office.html<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3><strong>CIHR Training Program In Neurodegenerative Lipidomics<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.med.uottawa.ca\/lipidomics\/index.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-821 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carleton.ca\/cosc\/wp-content\/uploads\/logo-400px-240x115.png\" alt=\"logo-400px\" width=\"240\" height=\"115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/cosc\/wp-content\/uploads\/logo-400px-240x115.png 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/cosc\/wp-content\/uploads\/logo-400px-160x77.png 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/cosc\/wp-content\/uploads\/logo-400px.png 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/cosc\/wp-content\/uploads\/logo-400px-360x173.png 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\">The\u00a0<strong>CIHR Training Program in Neurodegenerative Lipidomics<\/strong>\u00a0(CTPNL) is a trans-institutional program and collaborative initiative between an interdisciplinary team of researchers at the University of Ottawa, Carleton University, University of Toronto, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, and Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI).

What makes this program unique is that these experts work together in interdisciplinary teams as part of their training \u2013 applying a systems biology approach targeting the complex problem of neuronal vulnerability in neurodegenerative disease. The program focuses on training highly qualified students and early-career professionals to apply lipidomic technologies and strategies to identify and reverse pathogenic changes in lipid metabolism that render neurons vulnerable to Alzheimer Disease (AD), Parkinson\u2019s Disease (PD), and stroke. The program supports its training curriculum through an extended mentorship network of Principal Investigators (PI) and peer-mentors, as well as through award funding.

The &#8220;Oxygen Paradox&#8221; tells us that oxygen is both necessary for aerobic life and toxic to all life forms. Free radicals and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species now touch every biological and medical discipline. Efforts to counteract the damage caused by these species are gaining acceptance as a basis for novel therapeutic approaches, and the field of preventive medicine is experiencing an upsurge of interest in medically useful antioxidants and free radical scavengers.The SFRBM has provided support for our Keynote Speaker, Dr. Rafael Radi.
