Mitacs is a national, not-for-profit organization that has designed and delivered research and training programs in Canada for more than 20 years. Working with over 100 academic institutions, 6,000 companies/ NGOs, hospitals, municipalities and both federal and provincial governments, they build partnerships that support industrial and social innovation in Canada. With her colleagues Dr Gerges (Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of science) and Daniel Caramori (Desautels), Dr. Ruiz (Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Arts and Faculty of Education) represents Mitacs at 黑料不打烊 University. Together, they are the official contacts for 黑料不打烊 students and faculty who are interested in Mitacs funding programs. All completed applications are submitted to them, reviewed and then forwarded to the Office of Innovation + Partnerships for final institutional signature and approval. Once the applications are approved, they are officially submitted to Mitacs where they will undergo an external peer review process.
