  • Interactions
    DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIC S NEWSLETTER F A L L 2 0 1 8 Interactions Message from the Chair Welcome to the Fall 2018 issue of Interactions, the Department of Physics newsletter! There have been a number of changes in the Department over the summer, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading about some of them here. Here on the third floor, Stephen Julian has stepped down after a very successful five-year term as Chair. He’ll be succeeded by Kim Strong, but since she’s on leave this year I’ll be spending the year as Acting Chair. Some of you may remember that I was Chair from 2004-2013, and it’s good to be back working with the great staff and faculty in the department. William Trischuk’s term as Associate Chair for Graduate Studies also ended this summer, and that role will now be filled by Young-June Kim. As is traditional, in this issue we introduce you to a few of the members of the Department. We have a large experimental particle physics group, most of whom are involved in the ATLAS collaboration at CERN, and in this issue we have profiles of faculty member Pekka Sinervo as well as graduate student Haider Abidi. We also introduce you to undergraduate physics and philosophy specialist Matthew Gerry, as well as alumnus Felipe Morgado, who discusses how he progressed from an undergraduate degree in biophysics to an MD/PhD program. The Department continues to be heavily involved in outreach, and I hope many of you had the opportunity to visit one of our public events last year.

    Image features Audrey Dwyer from a photo by Avital Zemer. 1 A Message from the Artistic and Executive Directors Welcome to Seussical – one of our favourite musicals at YPT. Apart from being great fun and featuring terrific performances, this is a profound story. At its centre is Horton the Elephant’s assertion that "a person’s a person no matter how small". Obviously, these are words to live by. They are also a call to action for young people – to think and care about those who are sometimes forgotten or unseen. We hope Seussical inspires all audience members, young and not so young, to be conscious of the impact of their actions. Think how much better the world would be. To quote another song from the show "Oh the thinks you can think – if you’re willing to try..." Our show runs through the Holidays with public performances every day between December 27th and 31st. Perhaps you know someone for whom Seussical tickets would make a great gift! We wish you the very best for the Holidays and the New Year to come. ALLEN MACINNIS NANCY J. WEBSTER Artistic Director Executive Director Young People’s Theatre is a member of the Professional Association of Canadian Theatres (PACT) and engages, under the terms of the Canadian Theatre Agreement, professional Artists who are members of Canadian Actors’ Equity Association. This facility is supported through Toronto Arts Council Strategic Funding.
