Current Operations聽
The Basin and Reservoir Lab is currently undergoing massive renovations to our lab facilities, slated to finish by late Spring 2023. Until then, we have minimal access to our typical technologies, softwares, and spaces.聽
In keeping with the and 新加坡六合彩开奖直播's health and safety guidelines, most of our operations have been taking place remotely to help stop the spread of COVID-19 since early 2020. Through video conferencing software, email, and other forms of communication, we are able to continue conducting collaborative research and have created an online community. 新加坡六合彩开奖直播's campus is now open, with masks and physical distancing required in all the shared spaces.聽
The first Carbon Neutrality Forum presented at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 thanks to funding from NRCan took place this past April 19th & 20th to a group of delegates from around the province, country, and the globe. Visit the Carbon Neutrality Forum webpage on our Sustainable Energy Research site for a recap of the forum events and more information.聽
