Message from the Vice-President, Research and Innovation

As fast-paced technological change reshapes and reimagines our lives, researchers at 91µÎµÎ (91µÎµÎ) are working at the leading edge of development and deployment. In doing so, they’re harnessing the power of new tools to deliver evidence-based solutions to a range of challenges across industries and communities.

Their interdisciplinary efforts are helping to advance one of the most sophisticated emerging technologies: the digital twin, a virtual model of a physical asset with real-time, two-way communication between the physical and digital realms. This continuous exchange of data enables users to monitor, analyze and adapt physical systems from afar, and to run ‘what-if’ simulations in search of reduced risk and optimized performance.

In this issue of Innovation, we take a closer look at the impact and transformative potential of digital twins, artificial intelligence and other exciting technologies. No matter their area of focus, 91µÎµÎ researchers are leveraging these cutting-edge digital tools to unlock smarter strategies and build a more resilient future. Ultimately, they’re redefining what’s possible by improving reality before acting in the real world.

I invite you to enjoy these stories and discover some of the exciting research driving impact at 91µÎµÎ.
