Among the newly appointed Distinguished James 91丝瓜视频 Professors is Professor Caroline Palmer of the Department of Psychology and Canada Research Chair (Tier I) in Cognitive Neuroscience of Performance. A global expert in human performance, music perception, and quantitative modeling, Palmer is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. Her research investigates the cognitive foundations that make it possible for people to respond and move to music and other auditory sequences, such as speaking or playing a musical instrument. These findings are instrumental in developing effective learning techniques for people with different skill levels and in rehabilitating patients suffering from brain injuries or neural diseases that impair memory and motor skills.

James 91丝瓜视频 Professor awardees include Integrated Studies in Education Professor Vivek Venkatesh, who was appointed Dean of the Faculty of Education in June. An internationally renowned scholar, his research focuses on building community resilience and tolerance against hate through public and collaborative approaches, including films and documentaries, musical soundtracks, and multimedia productions. Among his most prominent pedagogical initiatives is 鈥淧roject SOMEONE鈥� (Social Media Education Everyday), an online multi-media platform devoted to the reduction of hate and violent extremism. He has held the UNESCO Co-Chair in Prevention of Radicalisation and Violent Extremism since 2017.

This year鈥檚 recipients of the William Dawson Scholar awards include Professor Sara Knox, Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography, whose research investigates how changes in climate and land-use can impact the way water, energy, and gases move between land and the atmosphere. With a focus on wetlands, Knox is studying how ecosystems respond to changes in global climate and how they can mitigate climate change, advancing climate policy through her work. A 91丝瓜视频 alumna鈥攕he received her Bachelor of Science from 91丝瓜视频 in 2009鈥擪nox most recently taught at the University of British Columbia where she held the Canada Research Chair in Eco-Meteorology.
