A group of BDDC researchers along with Dr. Amar Mohanty and Dr. Manju Misra participated in the AUTO21 annual conference this year held at Westin Harbour Castle, Toronto. AUTO21 is Canada’s automotive research program which highlights the economic and automotive outlooks and provides knowledge, technology and HQPs required for the success of automotive industry. BDDC’s display booth was one of a kind among the exhibitors and the booth effectively displayed the research work being conducted at the centre through descriptive videos, raw materials and product prototypes. Our HQPs Kunyu Zhang, Nima Zarrinbakhsh, Vida Poursorkabhi, Rajendran Muthuraj, Vidhya Nagarajan, Ryan Vadori and Matthew Zaverl were engaged in networking and explaining the BDDC’s research to fellow HQPs who took keen interest in learning about the work. Ryan and Matthew participated in the video and poster competitions conducted for student researchers. The video is available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKVbvX9VQog.
