Nine 茄子直播 Engineering researchers recognized with Connaught Innovation Awards

Nine University of Toronto researchers from the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering are receiving Connaught Innovation Awards to help accelerate the development and commercialization of promising technologies.

The winning projects were selected for their strong socio-economic and commercial potential and are expected to make a positive impact on society.

The awards are made possible through support from the .

.鈥淐ongratulations to this year鈥檚 recipients 鈥 who are all pursuing innovative work that will address some of society鈥檚 most significant challenges,鈥 says Leah Cowen, 茄子直播鈥檚 vice-president, research and innovation, and strategic initiatives. 

鈥淔or example, Gisele Azimi鈥檚 work on high-performance, low-cost aluminum-ion batteries will revolutionize the field of sustainable energy storage; Benjamin Hatton鈥檚 development of non-adhesive, microfluidic wound dressings will allow radical approaches for skin tissue regeneration, greatly improving a patient鈥檚 quality of recovery; and David Lie鈥檚 research in cybersecurity will lead to the development of new software technologies that will more effectively protect a user鈥檚 valuable personal data.鈥


The Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering recipients are:

  • Gisele Azimi of the department of chemical engineering and applied chemistry 鈥揌igh-performance and Cost-effective Aluminum Battery for Electric Transportation and Renewable Energy Storage
  • Sanjeev Chandra of the department of mechanical and industrial engineering 鈥 Thermal Spray Fabrication of Liquid Cooled Heat Sinks
  • Mark Chignell of the department of mechanical and industrial engineering 鈥 Target Acquisition Games for Measurement and Evaluation (TAG-ME) of Detailed Brain Function
  • Roman Genov of the department of electrical and computer engineering 鈥 Low-cost Camera for Motion-tolerant Adaptive High-dynamic-range Imaging
  • Benjamin Hatton of the department of materials science and engineering 鈥 Smart Wound Dressings for Active Control of Wounds and Skin Tissue Regeneration
  • David Lie of the department of electrical and computer engineering 鈥 Tools and Techniques to Perform Comprehensive Security Assessments
  • Milos Popovic of the Institute of Biomedical Engineering 鈥 鈥淭ake Home鈥 Neurostimulation for Depression: Prototype Development and Proof of Concept Clinical Trial
  • Craig Simmons of the department of mechanical and industrial engineering 鈥 Cell Culture Medium to Improve the Maturity and Utility of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Cardiomyocytes
  • Ding Yuan of the department of electrical and computer engineering 鈥 CLP: Efficient and Scalable Search on Compressed Text Logs

There are four additional Connaught Innovation Award recipients across the university 鈥 one each from 茄子直播 Mississauga, the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy, the Temerty Faculty of Medicine and the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing.
