Oil-adsorbing sponge could prevent environmental contamination

December 16, 2019

U of T researchers partnering with the Ozin Group have developed a new strategy to remove tiny oil droplets from wastewater with more than 90% efficiency, in just 10 minutes. Their secret weapon: a sponge.

SF6 worries: The most potent and persistent greenhouse gas

September 23, 2019

It is not well known, but the most potent greenhouse gas is, surprisingly, neither carbon dioxide nor methane, but a colorless, odorless, and inert gas known as sulfur hexafluoride (SF6).

Global Carbon Dioxide Cooling

May 30, 2019

It may come as a surprise, but carbon dioxide, the infamous greenhouse gas driving climate change, is also a leading contender in the replacement of hydrofluorocarbons in the next-generation of “green” refrigeration systems.

Air Conditioning 2.0: Keeping cool could aid carbon reductions

April 30, 2019

Professor Geoffrey Ozin proposes a move from crude oil to “crowd oil”. In a perspective published in Nature Communications this week, co-authored by Roland Dittmeyer of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Prof.

Professor Aaron Wheeler receives $3m Genome Canada grant

February 04, 2019

Kirsty Duncan, Minister of Science and Sport, announced today the funding recipients from Genome Canada’s Disruptive Innovations in Genomics.

Professor Scott Mabury: 'Plucking Solutions Out of Thin Air'

January 29, 2019

Professor Scott Mabury's research into perfluorinated acids have led to national policy changes on products that put their precursors into the air.

Chris Caputo wins 2018 Polanyi Prize

January 23, 2019

Congratulations to Chris Caputo (PhD '15, Stephan Group) for being one of five Ontario researchers honoured in the 2018 Polanyi Prizes.

Startup from the lab of Professor Molly Shoichet raises $3.25 million to eliminate prescription opioids after surgery

January 11, 2019

A University of Toronto startup has raised $3.25 million to develop a gel-based drug delivery system that could eliminate the need to give patients powerful painkillers following surgery – a key source of the current opioid crisis.

Professor Geoff Ozin: 'The story of CO2 needs altering'

December 18, 2018

Professor Geoff Ozin writes in Advanced Science News about the "rapid dissemination of misleading, confusing, frightening and false information" in science, particularly when it relates to carbon dioxide.

U of T partners with National Research Council to create national innovation hub for microfluidics

November 26, 2018

The University of Toronto is partnering with Canada’s National Research Council to create a national innovation hub focused on microfluidics – a field in which tiny amounts of fluid are manipulated in small-scale devices to create everything from portable diagnostic “labs” to repair kits for human organs.
