The Faculty of Applied Health Sciences officially became the Faculty of Health on January 1 and Lili Liu, its dean, tells us about the name change, ideas for the Faculty's future, the effect the pandemic has had on research activity, and more. Two alumni, a professor emeritus, and Waterloo's next president are named to the Order of Canada. There are nine new and renewed Canada Research Chairs from Waterloo. And we have the list of campus activities and services modified under the new shutdown rules.
