The University of Winnipeg has officially joined TRIUMF: Canada’s particle accelerator centre. 

"It’s wonderful that we’ve now formalized our membership in TRIUMF and secured the University’s future role so that we can continue to make high-level contributions to fundamental and applied science research."
DR. JEFF MARTIN, Professor, Physics Department

TRIUMF was founded in 1968 by Simon Fraser University, the University of British Columbia, and the University of Victoria to meet research needs that no single university could provide. From the hunt for the smallest particles in the universe to the development of new technologies, including next-generation batteries and medical isotopes, TRIUMF is pushing the frontiers in research to advance science, medicine, and industry.
