And the winners were:

The 2020 Inaugural Allan Carswell Physics Educator Scholarships

The Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) is pleased to announce that the inaugural Allan Carswell Physics Educator Scholarships are being awarded to two outstanding aspiring physics educators.

With the help of the Allan Carswell Physics Educator Scholarship, valued at up to $5000 each, the winners will pursue a career in physics education at the secondary school level.

Vanishing Act - From UofG Discovery to Commercial Product

The Dutcher Lab is working with its industrial partner Veriphy Skincare to commercialize a revolutionary cosmetic face mask that quickly dissolves into the skin, simplifying the use of the face mask and eliminating the waste associated with currently-available masks that must be peeled from the face and thrown away. This product capitalizes on the excellent film-forming ability of PhytoSpherix particles discovered in the Dutcher Laboratory at the University of Guelph.

A lively lecture delivered by Dr. Daniel James, Director of the Centre for Quantum Information and Quantum Control and a Professor of Physics at the University of Toronto was followed by the annual Physics Awards ceremony.

Congratulations to our award winners!
