\n Two 杏吧原创 University Researchers Named to the RSC College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

杏吧原创 University researchers Zoe Todd<\/a> and Laura Madokoro<\/a> have been named members of the 2020 incoming class of the College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists by the Royal Society of Canada<\/a> (RSC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe honour is a telling recognition of the accomplishments and potential of these scholars,\u201d said Rafik Goubran, vice-president (Research and International).  \u201cThe research being advanced by these faculty members will no doubt benefit Canadian society.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Todd is a professor in 杏吧原创\u2019s Department of Sociology and Anthropology<\/a>. Her research focuses on fish, colonialism and legal-governance relations between Indigenous peoples and Canada. Her work employs a critical Indigenous feminist lens to examine shared relationships between people, their environments and legal orders in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’m thrilled to become a member of the College of New Scholars and to join brilliant thinkers from across the country in tackling some of the most pressing issues we collectively face,\u201d said Todd. \u201cI am excited to learn from the members of the RSC and to collaborate in the years ahead to address topics we are invested in shaping and transforming. As an Indigenous interdisciplinary scholar, it’s especially exciting to join a vibrant intellectual space with so many other thinkers whom I admire and respect.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Madokoro\u2019s research explores the history of refugees and humanitarianism. She is especially interested in questions relating to settler colonialism, human rights and race. Her current research explores the history of sanctuary in Canada from the 17th century to the present, with a focus on post-Confederation sanctuary practices among a variety of religious and secular communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt means a great deal to me to be recognized by my peers in this way, especially because my research on migration and refugees foregrounds histories of race and exclusion and addresses stories that might be considered marginal by some,\u201d said Madokoro, professor in the Department of History.<\/a> \u201cIt\u2019s an honour to be inducted and I look forward to the opportunity to advance critical dialogues with colleagues from across the country and from a range of disciplines.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The RSC welcomed 50 new members to the College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists who are top mid-career leaders in Canada. The college provides the RSC with a multigenerational capacity to help Canada and the world address major challenges and seize new opportunities, including those identified in emerging fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
