  • At the corner of College St. and University Ave. sits a growing monument to this kind of original thinking. MaRS – short for Medical and Related Sciences – is all about a building becoming much more than the sum of its users and programming. Already, MaRS has become a global leader in biotech research; it has certainly become a city builder, creating jobs and spawning companies; and, of course, it does all this by being a creative cauldron – just like the film festival.

    An article by Roger Martin and Jennifer Riel from the Rotman School of Business on how leaders who demand proof that a new idea will work can inadvertently stifle innovation. Breakthrough innovation requires entering into the unknown, thinking beyond what could be right now and focusing instead on what could be in the future.

  • It is clear humans will live much longer in the future, Worzel says. And innovative agricultural products, like those being developed by University of Guelph research scientists, will play a vital role in maintaining the health of this future population of senior citizens.
  • Worzel was a keynote speaker at last week's Agri-Food Innovation Forum in Toronto, which brought leading scientists, medical professionals, government and industry officials together to explore the future of so-called functional foods and nutraceuticals -- foods or food extracts that have physiological benefits or reduce the risk of chronic disease.
  • Guelph scientists are among the world leaders in the field, with a host of University of Guelph researchers advancing the science, and a number of local enterprises -- Soy 20/20, BioEnterprise, Ontario Agri-Food Technologies, and MaRS Landing -- working to commercialize that science.
