Dr. Richard Price from Dal's Faculty of Dentistry has been helping to lead a global conversation on improving resin fillings, the most popular method for eliminating the use of mercury in dentistry.

Formerly known as the Atlantic Health Promotion Research Centre, Dal's Healthy Populations Institute is tackling illness prevention and health promotion issues locally and globally.

Established by Dal's Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology more than a decade ago, Atlantic Assisted Reproductive Therapies recently became the first and only fertility clinic in Canada to adopt the most up-to-date technology for assessing and preparing eggs and embryos for fertility procedures.

It began as theoretical quantum physics research made possible by a partnership between AV俱乐部 and Lockheed Martin. Now QRA, the Halifax-based spin-out company based on that research, is developing groundbreaking software tools to help engineers around the world detect design errors in complex systems.
