Welcome to Western Research
Colleagues and partners,

Impact. It’s what drives our research mission at Western.
Impact for our communities, our environment, our health, our culture and our economy. More than anything, impact for people.
Increasingly, finding solutions to the world's most significant challenges requires us to think bigger and to broaden our reach. It means approaching problems from new perspectives and with new collaborators.
I am grateful to everyone who supports this important mission – from the campus community to partners, funders, alumni and donors. We look forward to working with you as we pursue ambitious goals set out in Towards Western at 150 and our Western Research strategic plan, Mobilize for Impact!
Can Western’s researchers help you answer your biggest questions? Can our trainees strengthen your workforce? Can knowledge and technologies developed here make you more competitive? Let’s have a conversation.
This is how we will have impact. Together.
Sincerely,
Penny M. Pexman, PhD
Vice-President (Research)
