|
It’s now been more than a year since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and we would like to acknowledge the resilience of the University of Ottawa community and the Canadian people. UOJM’s Issue 11.1: Medical Research in the COVID-19 Pandemic contains a collection of articles relevant to researchers and students alike. We encourage our readers to peruse our very interesting interview with Dr. Marc-André Langlois, Canada Research Chair in Molecular Virology and Intrinsic Immunity, Professor in the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Immunology (University of Ottawa), and head of the Coronavirus Variants Rapid Response Network (CoVaRR-Net). The issue also features UOJM’s first invited commentary by Dr. Tracy Vaillancourt and colleagues entitled “Assessing the quality of research examining change in children’s mental health in the context of COVID-19”. Dr. Vaillancourt is Canada Research Chair in School-Based Mental Health and Violence Prevention as well as cross-appointed Professor in the Faculty of Education (Counselling Program), in the School of Psychology, Faculty of Social Sciences, and at Brain and Mind Research Institute, Faculty of Medicine (University of Ottawa).
