\u201cTwo-eyed seeing\u201d was coined by Albert Marshall, a Mi\u2019kmaq elder, to describe the depth of perspective gained when perceiving the world through both an Indigenous and Western lens.\u00a0 Using this framework, I will describe my approach to science, which focuses on emergent behavior in disk galaxies as a driver of evolution.\u00a0 Dynamical resonances are essential to the evolution of disk galaxies.\u00a0 These resonances arise in the presence of massive structures, like a bar, spiral arms and satellites, and they reshape a galaxy as they diffuse, shepherd and rearrange orbits and stellar populations. This talk will highlight a collection of methods that together enable us to connect orbital dynamics to morphological evolution.\u00a0 The end of this talk will touch on the status of the next generation gravitational wave observatory in the US, Cosmic Explorer.\u00a0 In particular, how our approach to site selection embodies two-eyed seeing and why our approach is critically important to the future of big science.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”26508″ img_size=”medium” css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Pieter Cullis | University of British Columbia<\/h4>\n

Mardi, le 10 juin, 09h00-09h45<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Cullis and co-workers have been responsible for fundamental advances in the development of nanomedicines employing lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology for cancer therapies, gene therapies and vaccines. This work has contributed to five drugs that have been approved by the FDA, the EMA and other regulatory bodies. These include Onpattro (the first RNAi drug to receive regulatory approval) to treat the previously fatal hereditary condition transthyretin-induced amyloidosis (hATTR), as well as Comirnaty, the Pfizer\/BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.<\/p>\n

Dr. Cullis has also co-founded eleven biotechnology companies that now employ over 500 people, has published over 400 scientific articles and is an inventor on over 100 patents. He co-founded two Canadian National Centre of Excellence networks, the Centre for Drug Research and Development (now AdMare) in 2004 and the NanoMedicines Innovation Network in 2019. Dr. Cullis has received many awards including the Order of Canada in 2021 and the VinFuture Prize (Vietnam), the Prince Mahidol Award (Thailand), the Gairdner International Award (Canada) and the Tang Prize (Taiwan) in 2022. Professor Cullis was made a Fellow of the Royal Society (London) in 2023 and was elected to the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame in 2024.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Design of lipid nanoparticles to enable gene therapies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Delivery of nucleic acid-based drugs into target cells in vivo has been a major challenge for enabling gene therapies. This barrier is now being overcome due in part to advances made in lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery systems. LNP systems enable the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and there are a host of LNP RNA vaccines and therapeutics in clinical development. Advantages of LNP RNA systems over other delivery vectors include safety, ability to re-dose, essentially unlimited genetic cargo, ease of design, straightforward manufacturing processes, lower cost, and potential for highly personalized targeted therapeutics that can be developed in a matter of weeks. In this talk I will discuss the evolution of lipid nanoparticles and lead examples of therapeutic applications of LNP RNA systems to treat cancer, cardiovascular disease and rare diseases.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”26538″ img_size=”medium” css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text css=””]Dennis Whyte | Hitachi America Professor of Engineering, Professor, Nuclear Science & Engineering
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jeudi, le 12 juin, 09h00-09h45<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dennis G. Whyte is the Hitachi America Professor of Engineering and Professor for Nuclear Science & Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A recognized leader in fusion research, especially in the magnetic confinement of plasmas, Whyte has paved an innovative and faster path to producing fusion energy. He is a co-founder of the fusion energy startup Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) which is now the world\u2019s largest private sector fusion company with over 2 billion dollars raised. As Director of the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center, he led the CFS-MIT collaboration that produced record high-temperature superconductor (HTS) magnets and design for the SPARC tokamaks whose goal is commercial relevant fusion production in the 2020s. Many of the ideas underpinning the high-field approach \u2014 including the use of HTS for high-field, demountable magnets, liquid blankets, and ARC (a fusion power plant concept) \u2014 have been conceived of or significantly advanced in his fusion design courses. Whyte has over 380 peer-reviewed publications, is a fellow of the American Physical Society, and has served on panels for the National Academies, the United States government, and the Royal Society, and regularly appears in print and online media advocating for fusion energy science and education. In 2018, Whyte received The Fusion Power Associates (FPA) Board of Directors Leadership Award which is given annually to individuals who have shown outstanding leadership qualities in accelerating the development of fusion, and in 2013 was awarded the Nuclear Fusion award for the most impactful research article in fusion. Whyte earned a B.Eng from the University of Saskatchewan, and an MS and PhD from Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec. He previously served as Director of the Plasma Science and Fusion Center, and the Department Head of Nuclear Science and Engineering, both at MIT. He is also the co-founder of Rutherford Energy Ventures which seeks to accelerate fusion energy\u2019s development by innovative investment and financing tools.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Accelerating commercial fusion energy with high magnetic fields and technology innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The advent of REBCO high-temperature superconductors at commercial scale has changed the development path for producing fusion energy with magnetic confinement.<\/p>\n

The design and test of a large-bore B>20 tesla peak field superconducting magnet at MIT PSFC, in collaboration with Commonwealth Fusion Systems, realizes a doubling of the allowed B field compared to previous state of the art.\u00a0 This realizes extremely large gains in fusion performance fusion power density scales as B^4 and access to ignition as ~B^5 at fixed plasma physics.<\/p>\n

These gains in turn allow for operation away from limits, yet in much smaller and less expensive devices.\u00a0 CFS is presently constructing the high-B tokamak SPARC outside Boston with MIT as its major scientific collaborator, with the goal of demonstrating high fusion energy gain and fusion power density that propels fusion into the commercial energy sector.\u00a0 In addition to describing SPARC, parallel key fusion technology development programs will be described.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”26352″ img_size=”medium” css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text css=””]Naoko Kurahashi Neilson | Drexel University<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Universe has been studied using light since the dawn of astronomy, when starlight captured the human eye. While astronomy has grown to include different wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum, Neutrino Astronomy offers particle physics as a way to observe and understand our high-energy Universe. In 2023, our own Galaxy was observed for the first time in neutrinos, making this the first non-electromagnetic image of the Milky Way. This talk covers Neutrino Astronomy as the intersection of astronomy, particle physics, and high-energy physics, and what it can offer to each of those fields.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
