Welcome, everybody.
I would like to make a few comments for the benefit of the new witnesses. Please wait until I recognize you by name before speaking. Those participating by video conference can click on the microphone icon to activate their mic. Please mute yourself when you are not speaking. Those on Zoom can select the appropriate channel for interpretation at the bottom of the screen: floor, English or French. Those in the room can use the earpiece and select the desired channel. I will remind you that all comments should be addressed through the chair.
For this panel, I would like to welcome Dr. Kelly Cobey, scientist at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. We are also joined, via video conference, by Dr. Grace Karram, assistant professor of higher education and coordinator of the higher education graduate program at the University of Toronto. Our third witness for this panel is Mr. Vincent Larivière, professor, Université de Montréal.
Welcome to all the witnesses.
Each of you will have five minutes for your opening remarks, and then we will proceed to the round of questioning. We will start with Dr. Cobey.
Dr. Cobey, please go ahead. You have five minutes. Thank you.
