Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of scientific researches of the best universities in the world providing training in the field of education and their impact on the quality of education. The analysis is based on the results of the QS World University Rankings in Education, which identified the top ten universities in the world in 2019, which train specialists in education. In the article the general directions and topics of scientific researches, as well as specific ones, specific to each university are highlighted. The author reveals the peculiarities of the research work of the best universities in the world in the field of education and its relationship with the quality of education. Particular attention is paid to the criteria of quality (success) of the activities of universities, and research in particular. The article emphasizes that analyzing the educational research of the best universities in the world as a condition of ensuring the quality of education can be very useful for the development of education (and not just pedagogical) in Ukraine. It is noted that a high level of educational research will help Ukrainian education to achieve modern quality of study, to provide it on a research basis and to become practically oriented. The author defines the key characteristics of successful research universities, including the following: • availability of basic and applied research in contemporary areas and topics; • carrying out research work focused on the practical results of the research; • a wide range of disciplines included in the educational program in any specialty; • a high proportion of postgraduate research programs; • high level of external income of the university, which is ensured by the implementation of research results; • international recognition of research findings and prospects for their further development. According to the QS World University Rankings, the top ten universities in the world that provide training in education are: 1. University College London, (UCL), (United Kingdom); 2. Harvard University, (USA); 3. Stanford University (USA); 4. University of Oxford, (United Kingdom); 5. University of Cambridge, (United Kingdom); 6. University of Hong Kong, (Hong Kong); 7. University of Toronto, (Canada); 8. Berkeley University, California, (USA); 9. Columbia University, New York, (USA); 10.University of California (Los Angeles), USA By looking at research topics, you can distinguish topics that are most commonly found in universities. In this case, we are referring to non-standard general topics of pedagogical research such as: educational policy, organization and improvement of training, development of standards of teaching, didactics of learning, etc. They are present in the scientific research of the best universities, but the most important place is occupied by the research topics that characterize the current stage of development of education in the world, with all its features, influences and main trends. For example, almost all the best universities in the world are researching on human rights and equity in education. A striking example of such research can be the scientific theme of the Pedagogical Institute of Hong Kong University "Justice and Social Justice in Education". Another important theme that unites the best universities is the topic of developing critical thinking and developing critical media literacy skills for students and students. An example of such research is the Teachers' Training Program for Critical Media Literacy Skills in Students at the Teachers at the University of California, Los Angeles, USA.

Merskey, Harold. "History of Pain Research and Management in Canada." Pain Research and Management 3, no. 3 (1998): 164–73. http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/1998/270647.

Abstract:
Scattered accounts of the treatment of pain by aboriginal Canadians are found in the journals of the early explorers and missionaries. French and English settlers brought with them the remedies of their home countries. The growth of medicine through the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in Europe, was mirrored in the practice and treatment methods of Canadians and Americans. In the 19th century, while Americans learned about causalgia and the pain of wounds, Canadian insurrections were much less devastating than the United States Civil War. By the end of that century, a Canadian professor working in the United States, Sir William Osler, was responsible for a standard textbook of medicine with a variety of treatments for painful illnesses. Yet pain did not figure in the index of that book. The modern period in pain research and management can probably be dated to the 20 years before the founding of the International Association for the Study of Pain. Pride of place belongs toThe management of painby John Bonica, published in Philadelphia in 1953 and based upon his work in Tacoma and Seattle. Ideas about pain were evolving in Canada in the 1950s with Donald Hebb, Professor of Psychology at McGill University in Montreal, corresponding with the leading American neurophysiologist, George H Bishop. Hebb's pupil Ronald Melzack engaged in studies of early experiences in relation to pain and, joining with Patrick Wall at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, published the 1965 paper in Science that revolutionized thinking. Partly because of this early start with prominent figures and partly because of its social system in the organization of medicine, Canada became a centre for a number of aspects of pain research and management, ranging from pain clinics in Halifax, Kingston and Saskatoon - which were among the earliest to advance treatment of pain - to studying the effects of implanted electrodes for neurosurgery. Work in Toronto by Moldofsky and Smythe was probably responsible for turning ideas about fibromyalgia from the quaint concept of 'psychogenic rheumatism' into the more fruitful avenue of empirical exploration of brain function, muscle tender points and clinical definition of disease. Tasker and others in Toronto made important advances in the neurophysiology of nociception by the thalamus and cingulate regions. Their work continues while a variety of basic and clinical studies are advancing knowledge of fundamental mechanisms, including work by Henry and by Sawynok on purines; by Salter and by Coderre on spinal cord mechanisms and plasticity; by Katz on postoperative pain; by several workers on children's pain; and by Bushnell and others in Montreal on cerebral imaging. Such contributions reflect work done in a country that would not want to claim that its efforts are unique, but would hope to be seen as maintaining some of the best standards in the developed world.

Abstract:
An effort to establish programs of study in the history of science took place at the University of Toronto in the 1960s. Initial discussions began in 1963. Four years later, the Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology was created. By the end of 1969 the Institute was enrolling students in new MA and PhD programs. This activity involved the interaction of the newly emerging discipline of the history of science, the practices of the University, and the perspectives of Toronto’s faculty. The story of its origins adds to our understanding of how the discipline of the history of science was institutionalized in the 1960s, as well as how new programs were formed at that time at the University of Toronto.

Abstract:
Translational research (TR) is a multidirectional and multidisciplinary integration of basic research, patient-oriented research and population-based research, with the long-term goal of improving human health. Unfortunately, the current scientific training system does not adequately align with the goals of TR. To address this issue, an organization called Apollo Toronto was established at the University of Toronto in Toronto, Ontario. Apollo Toronto is a medical student-run international collaborative project between the Eureka Institute for Translational Medicine and the University of Toronto (one of Eureka Institute’s partner universities), and provides a general overview of TR to interested medical and graduate students. Through local and international initiatives, the various Apollo chapters (including Apollo Toronto) aim to establish a network of trainees equipped to address systemic issues that impede the translation of an ever-growing body of scientific literature into health solutions.

Abstract:
Along with the ever growing awareness among the scientific community and the general public that concussion is a serious health care issue at all levels of sport, with potentially devastating long term health effects, the number of concussion surveillance clinical monitoring programs has significantly increased internationally over the past 10–15 years. An effective concussion program (a “best practice” model) is clinically prudent and evidence-based, one that is an interdisciplinary model involving health professionals who manage, educate, and provide psychosocial support to athletes. The integration of neuropsychological assessment is a component of many present day programs, and therefore, the neuropsychologist is an integral member of the concussion management team. The University of Toronto Concussion Program, operational since 1999, integrates best practices and current evidence into a working model of concussion management for university athletes. The model uses an interdisciplinary approach to monitor and assess athletes with concussions, as well as to educate its athletes, coaches, and administrators. A research component is also integral to the program.

Abstract:
The 2013 joint Canadian Society of Clinician Investigators (CSCI)–Clinical Investigator Trainee Association of Canada/Association des cliniciens-chercheurs en formation du Canada (CITAC/ACCFC) annual general meeting(AGM) was held in Ottawa, September 2013. The symposium focused on “Applications of the ‘omics’ to Clinical Practice”, with presentations from Drs. William T. Gibson (University of British Columbia), Julie Ho (University of Manitoba) and David Hwang (University of Toronto), discussing topics of genome, proteome and the microbiome, respectively. Other highlights from the 2013 AGM include presentations by Dr. Salim Yusuf (McMaster University, 2013 CSCI-RCPSC Henry Friesen Award winner), Dr. Gary Lewis (University of Toronto, 2013 CSCI Distinguished Scientist Award winner) and Dr. Michael Taylor (University of Toronto, 2013 Joe Doupe Award winner). The CSCI/CITAC/Friends of CIHR Joint Symposium consisted of presentations from Drs. John Bell (University of Ottawa), Dan Drucker (University of Toronto) and Heather J. Dean (University of Manitoba). Finally, the meeting ended with the presentation “The Power of an Idea to Bring Ideas to Power” by Dr. Harvey V. Fineberg (President, U.S. Institute of Medicine), the winner of the 2013 Henry Friesen International Prize. Also presented at the conference was research by clinician investigator (CI) trainees from across Canada; ie., those enrolled in MD/MSc, MD/PhD or Clinician Investigator Program(CIP) programs. Canadian trainees’ research extended beyond the pillar of biomedical research, covering the spectrum between basic and clinical research, with a focus on the causes of significant morbidity and mortality for Canadians, including cancers, infectious diseases and other maladies. It is this research that we have summarized in this review.

Abstract:
Published accounts of the work of J.R. Dymond, a zoology professor at the University of Toronto, director of the Royal Ontario Museum, and a significant force for conservation in Ontario emphasize his contributions to the natural history movement, and his influence on scientific research and the protection of natural areas in provincial parks. Relatively little attention has been paid to his early life and the local environments that shaped his views of nature. This article uses the concept of “place” to explain how Dymond became a conservationist. His experiences in specific locations—a product of social relations and the landscapes themselves—gave those places meaning and shaped his values. Such environments included the family farm and surrounding countryside in southwestern Ontario’s Metcalfe Township, Strathroy Collegiate Institute, the University of Toronto and nearby natural areas, places in Ottawa, and various lakes in B.C. and Ontario.

Abstract:
This interview with Michael White for the Journal of Systemic Therapies consisted of a series of conversations that occurred over a five-year period, beginning on October 22, 2002 and ending October 4, 2007, almost six months prior to his death. All of the interviews occurred following five-day training programs that Michael was teaching at the Hincks-Dellcrest Institute in Toronto, Canada. The initial interview began with Adrienne Chambon, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Faculty of Social Work, University of Toronto and Jim Duvall. Adrienne teaches narrative studies at the University of Toronto. She was unavailable for the second meeting, therefore, Karen Young, who is a BTTC-I faculty member, was asked to join the discussion. Michael was invited to step into the foreground of this conversation by providing glimpses of particular aspects of his life, rendering him more visible to the readers. These aspects of his life provided themes of circumstances that could be illuminated and their influences regarding the development of many of the ideas and practices that constitute what we now identify as narrative therapy, could be better understood. We were particularly interested in Michael's notion of keeping faith, staying true to those important sentiments, learnings, and circumstances in life that clarify what is important that we give value to.

Abstract:
In October 2011, the University of Toronto and the TorontoheadquarteredGairdner Foundation partnered to celebrate theninetieth anniversary of the discovery of insulin. In 1921, fourscientists worked to discover, isolate, and purify insulin at theUniversity of Toronto: Frederick Banting, John J. R. Macleod,James B. Collip, and Charles H. Best. The credit for this achievementhas been assigned in varying ways. Popular opinion, inToronto and worldwide, has bestowed the recognition for discoveryupon Banting and Best. Indeed, many noted diabetologistshave credited the achievement to this pair. However, theNobel Committee awarded the Prize in Physiology or Medicineto Banting and Macleod in 1923. Michael Bliss, in his 1982history of the discovery of insulin, revisited the question ofwho really is responsible for this wonder drug. Our essay willexplore the pathway toward the discovery of insulin and seekto understand why the credit for this monumental achievementwas apportioned in such different ways.

Full text
Abstract:
The field of neuromodulation has progressed significantly over the past two decades. It is evident that application of electrical (via tDCS, transcranial direct current stimulation) or magnetic (via rTMS, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) brain stimulation over the skull surface can effect change in brain function, which appears sufficiently robust to have a therapeutic effect. Sometimes the neuromodulation is best coupled with other forms of training or rehabilitation for best efficacy. What are the most promising approaches? What conditions appear to benefit? What are the situations/diseases/ disease states where neuromodulation is sufficiently well-proven now (or may be so in the future) that clinicians should start to consider its use in their psychogeriatric practice? We will review studies showing that tDCS can have a therapeutic effect in dementia, stroke, depression, and a range of other psychiatric conditions. Recent work is showing that with tDCS one can achieve improvement in picture naming, executive function, and memory in Alzheimer Disease and Frontotemporal dementia (Howard Chertkow presentation, Baycrest Health Sciences, Toronto). In stroke rehabilitation, rTMS treatment has been shown to aid in motor and language recovery (Alex Thiel, McGill University). There is now sufficient evidence that tDCS and Magnetic Seizure therapy are beneficial in depression, that these can now become part of the therapeutic armamentarium in selected cases (Jeff Daskalakis, University of Toronto). A range of other neuropsychiatric conditions can also be considered for neuromodulation therapy with rTMS (Daniel Blumberger, University of Toronto, CAMH).By attending this symposium, a physician or health care professional will become familiar with the latest research into neuromodulation and its role in current therapy of neurological and psychiatric diseases.

Abstract:
Although not entirely neglected, the history of preschool reform and child study in Canada is understudied. Historians have documented the fate of “progressivism” in Canadian schooling through the 1930s along with postwar reforms that shaped the school system through the 1960s. But there are few case studies of child study centers and laboratory schools in Canada, despite their popularity in the latter half of the twentieth century. Histories of child study and child development tend to focus on the well-known Institute of Child Study directed by the renowned William E. Blatz in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toronto (U of T). Yet there were over twenty other child study centers established in Canadian universities during the 1960s and 1970s directed by little-known figures such as Alice Borden and Grace Bredin at the University of British Columbia (UBC).

RESUMENEste artículo propone un recorrido a través de la figura del pensador de la Baja Edad Media a la Ilustración. Publicada en 1621, la Anatomía de la melancolía de Robert Burton dibuja la imagen del filósofo nuevo, opuesto a los desvergonzados filosofastros que daban título a la comedia de 1615. Demócrito Júnior supone la confirmación de la nueva figura intelectual que ha dejado atrás al clerc de la Baja Edad Media: el humanista del Renacimiento que, gracias a la rehabilitación llevadaa cabo por Marsilio Ficino del mal de la bilis negra, confiesa con orgullo su carácter melancólico, propio del genio fuera de lo común. Su sucesor, el philosophe del siglo XVIII ya no necesita acudir a la afección atrabiliaria para postularse como el guía que ha de conducir y domesticar al pueblo.PALABRAS CLAVE: melancolía, filosofastros, época moderna, philosophe, pueblo.ABSTRACTThis article proposes a journey through the figure of the thinker from the late Middle Ages to the Enlightenment. Published in 1621, Robert Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy depicts the image of the new philosopher as opposed to those shameless philosophasters, to which the title of his 1615 comedy refers. Democritus Junior embodies the confirmation of the new intellectual figure that has abandoned the clerc of the late Middle Ages: that Renaissance humanist who, thanks to Marsilio Ficino’s rehabilitation of the malady of the black bile, proudly confesses his melancholiccharacter, typical of extraordinary geniuses. His successor, the 18th century philosophe, no longer needs to resort to bad-tempered humour in order to present himself as the guide destined to direct and domesticate common people.KEY WORDS: melancholy, philosophasters, early modern period, philosophe, common people.BIBLIOGRAFÍAAgamben, G., Stanze.

The Modern Language Centre addresses a broad spectrum of theoretical and practical issues related to second and minority language teaching and learning. Since its foundation in 1968, the quality and range of the Centre's graduate studies programs, research, and development projects and field and dissemination services have brought it both national and international recognition. Our work focuses on curriculum, instruction, and policies for education in second, foreign, and minority languages, particularly in reference to English and French in Canada but also other languages and settings – including studies of language learning, methodology and organization of classroom instruction, language education policies, student and program evaluation, teacher development, as well as issues related to bilingualism, multilingualism, cultural diversity, and literacy. In this research report, we will present research activities underway in the Centre in the areas of pedagogy, literacy development, sociocultural theory, pragmatics, and assessment.

The journal's office will move from the Munk School of Global Affairs (and the Department of Political Science) at the University of Toronto to the Department of Political Science at the University of Wisconsin. This move represents a return to some of IO's early roots: the University of Wisconsin was the home of IO's first academic editor, Professor of Political Science David Kay. Although much has changed since Professor Kay began editing the journal in 1972, the goal of the journal to publish the best work in the field of international relations (IR) has not.

Abstract:
IUPAC’s vision statement declares that the Union advances the worldwide role of chemistry for the benefit of Mankind. And one of its long-range goals states “IUPAC will utilize its global perspective and network to contribute to the enhancement of chemistry education, the career development of young chemical scientists, and the public appreciation of chemistry”. In pursuit of this spirit, the Union established in 2000 the IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists and has been honoring since then outstanding young research chemists at the beginning of their careers by making annual awards. The prizes are given for the most outstanding Ph.D. theses in the area of the chemical sciences, as described in 1000-word essays.As immediate Past President of IUPAC, I was honored to chair the prize selection committee of eminent chemists, who enjoyed reading essays of 41 applicants from 22 countries. After critical evaluation of the originality and excellence of the essays and research results, the committee decided unanimously to award 2012 Prizes for the following six essays:- “Study of the factors affecting the selectivity of catalytic ethylene oligomerization”, Khalid Albahily, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Canada (following earlier studies at King Saud University, Saudi Arabia and Texas A&M University, College Station, TX, USA)- “Nanowire nanoelectronics: Building interfaces with tissue and cells at the natural scale of biology”, Tzahi Cohen-Karni, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA (following earlier studies at Technion Israel Institute of Technology and Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel)- “Synthetic investigations featuring boron-rich and multidentate chalcoether-containing ligands”, Alexander Spokoyny, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, USA (following earlier studies at University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA)- “Quantification of virtual chemical properties: Strain, hyperconjugation, conjugation, and aromaticity”, Judy I-Chia Wu, University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA (following earlier studies at Tung-Hai University, Taiwan)- “New materials for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells to be powered by carbon- and sulfur-containing fuels”, Lei Yang, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA (following earlier studies at Beihang University and Tsinghua University, China)- “Transition metal catalysis: Activation of CO2, C–H, and C–O bonds en route to carboxylic acids, biaryls, and N-containing heterocycles”, Charles Yeung, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada (following earlier studies at University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada)All the awardees were invited to present posters on their research at the 44th IUPAC World Chemistry Congress, Istanbul, Turkey, 11–16 August 2012. Upon IUPAC’s invitation, 4 of the 6 winners offered review papers on their research topics for consideration as publications in this issue of Pure and Applied Chemistry.Finally, it is an honor and a pleasure to congratulate each of the winners and their supervisors for winning the 2012 IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists. It is hoped that each of them will continue to contribute to a bright future for chemical sciences and technologies and to take active roles in IUPAC bodies in the future.Nicole MoreauIUPAC Immediate Past President and Chair of the IUPAC Prize Selection Committee

Abstract:
The Politics of Public Management: The HRDC Audit of Grants and Contributions, David A. Good, The Institute of Public Administration of Canada Series in Public Management and Governance; Toronto, University of Toronto Press, 2003, pp. 240The literature in public administration in some ways suffers from not having more practitioners reflecting, writing and analyzing their experiences. Thus David Good's book analyzing the HRDC's so-called “billion dollar boondoggle” is a welcome contribution. His background as both a senior manager/executive within the Federal government and his academic credentials—a doctorate in policy and administration sets him apart—as a practitioner-academic. Good possesses the senior public manager's mind for detail and this book provides a clear account of the ebbing and flowing of events, beginning with the January 2000 release of HRDC's internal audit that implied a loss of a billion dollars, to the Auditor General's report of October that same year which, while critical of monitoring and reporting practices, concluded that only $85,000 was unaccounted for. The media and the opposition, at this point quickly lost interest.

Abstract:
There are two episodes which remain in my mind from the first night I was on call at the Clarke Institute of Psychiatry, Toronto in 1980. The first person I assessed in the Emergency Room was a young university student in her early twenties who had been reading “Jung” and urgently needed to discuss “archetypes and the animus”; the second incident some hours later involved a middle aged man who was manic on admission and responded rapidly to the 10 mg of haloperidol I administered intravenously in front of a silent and, as I later discovered, astonished night nurse and junior resident. The patient settled rapidly and my unorthodox treatment was a talking point for several weeks. These two vignettes alerted me to the fact that things were different here. No-one had ever used intravenous neuroleptics in Toronto at that time, and equally no-one in Newcastle on Tyne, which I had left only two weeks earlier, would consider the casualty department of the Royal Victoria Infirmary a necessary stop as they waded through Jung.
