The genera Research Group (gRG) is pleased to announce it has been awarded Queen’s University Group Status.

The gRG derives its name from the root word 'gen', used by disciplines as a combining form (for instance in biology, 'genus' denotes a taxonomic unit of organisms; in chemistry, it denotes a substance that produces something, as in oxygen). The major aim of the gRG is to generate and synthesize new and innovative transdisciplinary research, and to mobilize this knowledge to benefit Canadians and the global community.

gRG members traverse a wide range of disciplines at Queen's University. We synthesize knowledge from the natural and social sciences, and humanities. Substantively, our research traverses a broad spectrum of theoretical and empirical interests. At its core, the gRG is committed to research that actively engages with scientific knowledge.

We invite prospective researchers to apply to join the gRG.
