¶¡ÏãÔ°AV

Scholarly Impact of the Week

¶¡ÏãÔ°AV's Scholarly Impact of the Week is selected by the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation to celebrate scholarly milestones and research impacts from across the ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV research community.

Celebrating scholarly milestones

We are celebrating and raising the profile of scholarly milestones and research impacts from across the ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV research community.

Examples of Scholarly Impacts can include:

  • Publishing a paper in a high-impact journal; 
  • Patenting an invention; 
  • Debuting a new performance piece;
  • Publishing a monograph or book and/or;
  • Changing a government policy

If you would like to recommend that we feature a particular high-impact work from an ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV scholar, please engage with us and submit an impact.

Submit an impact

We expect most of the publications that are featured to be recent impacts—however, we will also publish a transformative impact from the past, from time-to-time. 

As part of ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV's Scholarly Impact of the Week, selected researchers will work with a member of the VP Research and Innovation Office's communications and marketing team for support. We will also work with researchers to discuss how we can mobilize knowledge on their work by submitting to The Conversation Canada—one of the world's most trusted independent sources of news and views from the academic and research community, delivered directly to the public. 

Be sure to keep up-to-date on the latest published Scholarly Impact and other research news by following ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Research on  (X).
