The first time Eve Uwayesu walked into the Toronto Tempo's offices, the WNBA's newest team was still being built — and so was a moment in professional women's sport that nobody could have predicted a decade ago.
"Everyone watches women's sports."

The fellows aim to bring research-based business ideas to market, from a cybersecurity training program to a low-cost magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device.

Nearly two decades after Bitcoin first appeared, blockchain technology remains one of the most talked-about and often misunderstood innovations of the digital age.
For Dr. Muharem Kianieff, a professor at the University of Windsor Faculty of Law, that enduring fascination inspired a newly expanded second edition of his book, Blockchain Technology and the Law: Opportunities and Risks.
The book explores how legal frameworks can help society maximize the benefits of blockchain technology while minimizing its risks.

The University of Windsor has since confirmed that Van Heyst will continue to lead the faculty through a second term, effective Sept. 1.

With the crowd buzzing inside the arena, Luke Pye glides into position for a faceoff deep in the home team’s defensive zone, directing players to set their sticks before lowering his gaze to the puck.
He steadies himself, drops it cleanly and quickly backs away as the players battle for possession.
For Pye, moments like this are the result of years of work that has taken him from local rinks to some of hockey’s biggest stages.

When Casandra Asoufi applied to volunteer at the 2026 FIFA World Cup back in September, she didn’t think much of it.
That was until she received word just a few weeks before kick-off that she had been selected from thousands of applicants.
Not only was Asoufi going to be part of the World Cup; she was going to be on the pitch in the centre circle as part of pre-match ceremonies at Toronto Stadium.

When recent nursing graduate Eunice Kungu travelled to Tanzania as part of the University of Windsor’s 2026 Teach Tanzania trip, it was for the second time.
Kungu, who is originally from Kenya, first participated in the 2025 trip when she was a third-year nursing student. When the opportunity arose to return in 2026, she knew she wanted to go back.
“What motivated me to return was the connection we built with the community and seeing the positive impact that comes from being part of this initiative,” Kungu says.

For female athletes — and women in general — bone health is key to long-term health.
At the same time, research on women’s physiology has often been overlooked in medicine and sports science.

The Gordie Howe International Bridge is rising at a time when the line between Windsor and Detroit can feel more fixed than fluid.
Tighter border controls, post-pandemic disruptions and political friction between Canada and the United States have made that divide more visible in recent years.
For decades, the Detroit River has been less a barrier than a seam, stitching together two cities whose economies, cultures and daily rhythms have long overlapped.

Technology that improves lives depends not only on innovation, but on the people who mentor future engineers, build professional networks and help connect research to real-world needs.
That commitment to advancing technology for the public good has earned University of Windsor engineering professor Mohammed Khalid the 2026 M.B. Broughton Central Canada Merit Award from IEEE Canada, the Canadian arm of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

Dr. Lauren Bialystok never wanted to research artificial intelligence (AI).
"I feel like AI chose me more than I chose it,” she says.
However, with the ubiquity of AI, including in her field of education, Bialystok found herself drawn to the topic.
“I’ve seen changes over the last few years that portend such enormous shifts in what education is for and how we go about our business,” she says.
