Description
Two University of Calgary scientists, Dr. Nigel Shrive and Dr. Shabir Barzanjeh, have been awarded Canadas top research prizes, the Killam Trust awards. Dr. Barzanjeh, a quantum physicist, plans to work with the National Research Council on quantum computers, aiming to make qubits more efficient. Dr. Shrive, a biomedical engineer, intends to improve an artificial knee for arthritis patients and advance eco-friendly concrete. Both researchers are excited about the freedom the funding brings, with Dr. Barzanjeh aiming for Canadas first demo of qubit entanglement and Dr. Shrive focusing on practical health and green building solutions.
