Please note: MTRI Notice of Temporary Closure
Our board and staff wish to inform that MTRI is temporarily suspending many activities effective today, following the NS Health Authority directives to contain community spread.
We are guided by a safety priority for our community of staff, guests and collaborators. We will use an adaptive approach for the continuity of core services, moving to a remote work model until further notice.
Our facility is closed to guests until that time, and we will continually reassess based on the advice of public health authorities.
