阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 is embarking on a $1.8 million campaign to support the construction of the dynamic new wolf den athletics facility, a project that 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 overwhelmingly supported in a referendum in 2018.
set to open in 2020, the new 30,000 square-foot wolf den will be connected and built adjacent to the c.j. sanders fieldhouse. 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are contributing $11 million of the $12.8 million construction cost.
august ricketts, a former varsity basketball player and current fitness enthusiast, is excited to experience the wolf den.
“as a 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 student and former varsity athlete, i have spent quite a bit of time in our current athletics facility over the years,” ricketts said.
“i have come to understand and recognize the importance of supporting the wolf den and how beneficial it will be. the new addition will provide a modern and bright space, to not only lakehead 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 but to members of the thunder bay community as well.
“there will be more available time for 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and community members to utilize the courts for recreational activities as well as give them increased access to more cardio and weight equipment. the addition will also give 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 another space to study comfortably and de-stress from school,” she added.
the expansion will allow lakehead to double the space dedicated to weight lifting, cardio and gym areas that the current space provides, for both 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and community use.
the wolf den will include a multi-purpose gymnasium, modern weightlifting area, new aerobics studio, expanded club team storage and offices, new space for recreational programming, multi-use boardroom, student study areas, a lounge and meditation centre, and a wellness clinic. the new facility will also provide accessibility enhancements for users who have disabilities. additionally, the wolf den athletics facility will be designed and built with sustainability in mind. as such, it is registered with the intention of earning leed® gold certification upon its completion.
“this is an exciting project that we are very proud to be part of,” said farhan yousaf, lusu’s vice-president, finance and operations. “it will be a new facility for 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , where they can study, relax and work out in one building.”
tom warden, lakehead’s director, athletics, said the space would meet the needs of lakehead’s 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 – and 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 played a role in every aspect of its creation.
“lakehead 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 have driven this new facility,” he said. “they’ve been the ones who have championed it, financed the majority of it, designed it, and developed it.
“together with the c.j. sanders fieldhouse and the hangar, the wolf den will ensure that 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 athletics continues to provide dedicated space and programming to meet the health, wellness and recreation needs of our 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and the wider community,” warden said, adding that he hopes the public will contribute whatever they can to help make this facility a reality.
“世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are the primary funders. as we move forward with this campaign, we hope our community members, corporate community, and friends of the university will see the value of this facility for the region and the city, and help make this project happen,” he added.

thunder bay, ontario — an up-and-coming researcher at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 has been recognized for his innovative work to develop a cutting-edge medical imaging technology that delivers high-resolution pictures at a much lower dose of radiation, providing a breast imaging alternative to mammography, positron emission tomography (pet) scan and other imaging devices.
the breakthrough work has earned oleksandr bubon the mitacs & ncr-irap award for outstanding commercialization, awarded by mitacs, a not-for-profit organization that fosters growth and innovation in canada for business and academia. the award will be presented at a ceremony in ottawa on november 26.
bubon — a postdoctoral fellow studying under canada research chair, professor alla reznik, at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and senior scientist at thunder bay regional health research institute — is being recognized for developing a novel solid state imaging technology that exposes patients to 10 to 15 times less radiation than traditional pet scans. at the same time, the technology delivers highly sensitive, accurate images that can detect extremely small tumours in their earliest stages of cancer, particularly in women who have denser breast tissue than average.
“it is an honour to receive this award and have my research recognized in this way,” said bubon, who serves as medical chief technology officer of radialis medical, a joint venture of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and thunder bay regional research institute co-founded by bubon and reznik in february 2016. “there is a huge need for this lower-dose, high-resolution imaging device and we’re only just beginning to see the incredible potential this technology has.”
the technology is currently being developed and tested by radialis medical. the latest prototype — a fully enclosed system on wheels — is in clinical trials at princess margaret hospital in toronto with validation results expected to be available before the end of the year. the company is now working to scale its manufacturing and quality control efforts, and expects to be firmly established as a medical device manufacturer ready to seek fda and health canada approval by mid-2020, bubon said.
the mitacs & ncr-irap award for commercialization is presented to a mitacs intern for an idea brought from research that is either on the market or soon to be commercialized. bubon is one of eight mitacs award winners nationally, chosen from thousands of researchers who take part in mitacs programs each year. the remaining seven recipients were recognized for outstanding innovation or exceptional leadership in other areas of research.
“innovation in canada continues to be inspired by the groundbreaking work of up-and-coming researchers that touch all industry sectors and help to fuel the economy,” said jennifer wilkie, mitacs interim ceo. “their achievements are truly remarkable and mitacs is honoured to support them, and broker important connections between industry, post-secondary institutions and government that make their leading-edge work possible.”
“we know that employers are looking for 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and graduates with real-world experience so they can make an immediate impact in the workforce,” said ross romano, minister of colleges and universities. “by working with mitacs to support experiential learning and the innovative work of researchers like oleksandr bubon, we can help more people get the meaningful, hands-on learning opportunities they need to secure good jobs and support ontario’s growing economy.”

(pictured) iain stewart, president of national research council canada, presents the mitacs nrc irap award for commercialization to oleksandr bubon of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 . oleksandr is recognized for his work developing an innovative breast imaging alternative to mammography, pet scan, and other imaging devices. his invention delivers high-resolution pictures at a much lower dose of radiation than existing alternatives. his project was in collaboration with thunder bay regional health research institute and radialis medical with the support of the government of ontario.
