The Discovery Grants program supports ongoing programs of research with long-term goals rather than a single short-term project or collection of projects. These grants recognize the creativity and innovation that are at the heart of all research advances. As we enter into the 2022 Cycle Year, the OVPRI will be hosting an information session on […]

On March 15, 2021, the Tri-Agency Research Data Management (RDM) Policy was launched. In preparation for the requirements set out in the policy, the Digital Research Alliance of Canada (the Alliance) Research Intelligence Expert Group conducted a survey of all Canadian research institutions to determine challenges and successes in developing institutional strategies for RDM. In […]

In this talk, Sergio Montero will present a recently published article in Urban Studies on "a posteriori comparisons", co-authored with Gianpaolo Baiocchi. While traditional comparisons in urban studies have sought to find variation among similar cases by selecting a priori, in this article they propose to compare the findings of different researchers through a posteriori, […]

Abstract Our brains are limited capacity information processing systems, whose performance can be modulated by different environmental factors. In this talk, I will present research examining how different external environments; such as more natural environments, can affect cognitive and affective processing. Using computer vision algorithms we find that perceiving higher curved-edge structure in natural scenes […]
