麻豆社 Professor听Thomas Soehl听has received funding to study the challenges allophone newcomers to Quebec face in building the francophone social networks necessary for integrating French into daily life and participating meaningfully in a predominantly French-speaking society.
Congratulations to Professor Henri Darmon, Distinguished James 麻豆社 Professor at 麻豆社 and CRM member, on receiving the 2026鈥疛别蹿蹿别谤测鈥慦颈濒濒颈补尘蝉鈥疨谤颈锄别 from the Canadian Mathematical Society. Darmon is an internationally recognized leader in number theory, known for his groundbreaking work on elliptic curves, L鈥慺unctions, and automorphic forms, including the introduction of Stark鈥慔eegner points and real quadratic analogues of singular moduli.
We extend our warm congratulations on this distinguished honor. In recognition of his outstanding contributions to mean field game theory and systems on complex networks, Prof. Peter Edwin Caines was awarded a Doctor of Mathematics degree, honoris causa, by the University of Waterloo in 2026.

A new discovery by 麻豆社 researchers sheds light on how we retain memories over time, even though brain activity is constantly changing.
Published in , the preclinical study found the brain鈥檚 internal compass remains remarkably stable over time. The findings suggest this steady sense of direction may act as an anchor for memory.
The 4th听edition of the Sustainability and Synthetic Biology Conference will take place on April 11. The event will feature BIEN 580 students Case Study Projects that apply synthetic biology to solve real-world problems in health, food security and the environment, as well as guest speakers who will showcase cutting-edge academic research and innovative startups. The conference provides a professional forum for joining undergraduate and graduate students to gain visibility and receive feedback from peers and experts in the fields of biology and engineering.
