COVID-19 Responses from our Team Members:

Our colleague Herbert Mueller of Element NRG is presently leading a Task Force within Canadian Nuclear Laboratories addressing a very important, but confidential, engineering technology development in the COVID-19 medical space.

At this time, our thoughts and best wishes are with Herbert and his wife Abra, who is also providing professional support for the project.

The Centre for Online Mental Health Support (COMHS):

A recently established online platform founded by a group of leading mental health professionals and scientists, including Innovate Canmore Board Member Matthew Brown PhD (Neuroscience).

This new and important program offers interactive webinars on tools and techniques to improve mental health in general and the impact of the coronavirus on mental heath in particular.

Please pass this information on to family and friends who may may be in need of such professional support at this difficult time.
