National Research Council
As a theoretical physicist with the Steacie Institute for Molecular Sciences at the National Research Council Canada (NRC), Dr. Misha Ivanov deals with complex scientific problems. Often, his collaborators are located overseas, making it difficult for Ivanov to discuss work in person with his peers.
