Queen’s University, a member of the U15, is one of Canada’s leading
research-intensive universities. Through leadership of the McDonald Institute,
Queen’s is creating an environment that will enable Canadian scientists to
ensure their continued and enhanced pre-eminence in astroparticle physics by
leading the science and technology developments that will be required for the
next generation of world-leading experiments. In addition to being awarded the
CFREF funding that made the Institute possible, Queen’s is the physical host of
the McDonald Institute and its Scientific Director, Dr. Tony Noble, has been a
professor at Queen’s since 2002. Queen’s is also the academic home to the
McDonald Institute’s namesake, Dr. Arthur B. McDonald, who received the 2015
Nobel Prize in Physics and the 2016 Breakthrough Prize for the discoveries of
the SNO experiment. The university has a long history of being at the forefront
of astroparticle physics in Canada as a partner in SNO and SNOLAB and is also
the home to Dr. Gilles Gerbier, Canada Research Excellence Chair in Particle
Astrophysics.

Canada is well positioned to lead in the global effort to advance research in
physics. Through the McDonald Institute, Queen’s will bring together its
multidisciplinary expertise in engineering, analytical chemistry, geochemistry
and isotope analysis with its strong history in astroparticle physics. By
building a network of expertise across the campus, the Institute will also be
able to tap into the resources and connections to enable further development. Of
the fifteen new faculty positions funded through the CFREF award, seven will be
based at Queen’s. The areas identified for new faculty reflect the
multi-disciplinary nature of the McDonald Institute; to date, faculty have been
hired in the departments of physics, engineering, geology, and chemistry to meet
the uniquely diverse needs of currents and next-generation astroparticle physics
experiments.

The McDonald Institute at Queen’s University is situated in the traditional
territory of the Anishinaabe & Haudenosaunee First Nations. The Institute is
part of a national network of institutions and research centres, which operate
in other traditional Indigenous territories. Visit www.whose.land to learn the
traditional territories where astroparticle physicists are grateful to live and
work across Canada.
