Dr. Mark Green, Professor, NSERC Scholar in Residence for Indigenous collaboration, former Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic), former Professor and Vice Dean (Graduate Studies and Recruitment) of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, is interested in the structural performance in fire of concrete structures, applications of fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) in structures, the effects of cold regions on concrete structures, and monitoring of structures.  In particular, he has conducted extensive research over the past ten years on the fire resistance of FRP strengthening concrete structures. He has also examined the effects of cold regions on FRP strengthened concrete structures. He is currently researching methods for monitoring concrete bridges at low temperatures, fire resistance of FRP strengthened concrete structures, new self-healing materials for waterproofing concrete structures, FRPs for advanced rapid transit systems, and the fire performance of buildings constructed with sustainable concretes. The dynamics of bridge structures and the performance of bridge expansion joints are also topics of interest. He is a member of Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte and an advisor to the Dean of Engineering and Applied Science on the development of an Aboriginal Access to Engineering Program.

LLCU Profile

Thanyehténhas (Nathan Brinklow) is Turtle Clan from the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory. He grew up without the language in a community that had largely lost its heritage language as an everyday spoken language.  Nathan’s interest in the language was sparked through the “Mohawk Hymns” he sang with his grandmother as a young man and following his formal studies, he went on to study at Shatiwennakará:tats, the intensive adult language program at Tyendinaga.  He now teaches in that program.

Research interests: Mohawk language & culture, learning language through culture,  Adult second language acquisition, traditional Mohawk belief & spirituality

Scott Berthelette is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History at ���ϳԹ���Դ. He researches the history of Indigenous Peoples, the Métis, New France, and the Hudson’s Bay Company. Scott completed his PhD at the University of Saskatchewan in January 2020. His Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC)-funded dissertation is titled "Between Sovereignty and Statecraft: New France and the Contest for the Hudson Bay Watershed, 1663-1774," and examines how French-Canadian voyageurs and coureurs de bois were instrumental cultural brokers between Indigenous peoples and the French colonial government in the Hudson Bay Watershed. This project will be published as a monograph with McGill-Queen's University Press. Scott is a member of the Manitoba Métis Federation, the federally recognized self-government of the Métis people of Manitoba.
