The face of Alberta’s research and innovation system is changing. After months of consultation, Alberta’s Minister of Advanced Education and Technology, Doug Horner,<\/strong> has introduced Bill 27 <\/strong>to the provincial legislature. <\/p>\n

According to the Minister, the endowment funds for Alberta Ingenuity <\/em>and the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research<\/em> will be maintained. But the many research institutes and agencies that have been created in recent years will be merged into just four entities. <\/p>\n

DOUG HORNER: <\/strong>So what we’re doing is we’re bringing them together to give focus. I wouldn’t say streamlining so much as focus. So what we’ve said is let’s have an institute that’s responsible for answering questions in health. Let’s have an institute that responsible for answering questions in energy and the environment. And let’s have an institute that’s responsible for answering questions within the biosciences sphere. And then let’s have one group that’s responsible for taking those answers and turning them into a commercially viable or social good or whatever the outcome is supposed to be, but do it all right here in the province. <\/em> <\/p>\n

Minister Doug Horner says this new innovation framework will lay the strong foundation Alberta’s research community needs to make the transition into a knowledge based economy. <\/p>\n
