Pursuant to other Canadian research institutes, the MMRI creates linkages between researchers from traditionally distinct disciplines, including engineering, chemistry, physics, biology, medicine, health and medical science, computer science, social science, applied mathematics, management, among others, to co-create and launch large-scale strategic research projects in the core and applied materials and manufacturing domains.
