Soil productivity and soil health status following restoration of pipeline corridors on Agricultural Land Reserve cropland in northeastern British Columbia

Oil and gas exploration and development in northeastern British Columbia contributes to the Province’s economy, but also results in disturbance of cropland due to construction of pipelines within the Agricultural Land Reserve. Currently, there is no long-term monitoring of cropland productivity on reclaimed pipeline footprints. The proposed research addresses priorities of the British Columbia Oil and Gas Research and Innovation Society (BC OGRIS) by assessing and quantifying the long-term impacts of pipeline construction on cultivated ALR lands. This is consistent with the 2018 interim report of the BC Minister of Agriculture’s Advisory Committee for Revitalizing the Agricultural Land Reserve and the Agricultural Land Commission, which recommended immediate action to mitigate the impacts of oil and gas activity in the ALR.

NeighbourPLAN Co-Design Planning Project

Both researchers will conduct independent projects using multiple data collection methods to evaluate GreenUP’s NeighbourPLAN project based on participants’ sense of well-being and belonging and what the perceptions are among participants towards sense of place and the built environment including green spaces. Rosa’s research will be evaluating sense of belonging and place and whether the participatory planning activities have activated new meaning in places. Laura’s research will assess the nexus between participants’ interaction with green spaces and the level of engagement in the NeighbourPLAN, measured through each participant’s recorded perceived wellness. The expected benefits to GreenUP from both projects include an evaluation of the GreenUP program efficacy in achieving sustainable community engagement in participatory urban planning processes in Peterborough.

Durham Region Climate Change Modeling (DRCCM)

projections across their watersheds and lower tier municipalities. Leveraging previous modeling that was completed five years ago, they have established a suite of climate variables they would like to update based on the latest science, and hope to access existing regional climate model outputs through online portals or academic experts and undertake post-processing and analysis (in other words – they do not plan to undertake new primary modeling). The Region is highly interested in establishing a clear and plain language approach towards obtaining and assessing climate conditions in the form of a guidance document alongside their updated climate projections. In this regard, they hope to share the developed methodology with other municipalities in Southern Ontario to promote best practices and consistency.

Building and renewing competitive advantage in emerging technological domains: technology startups and innovation communities

The emerging technology company is in a dynamic environment where everything is changing turbulently, not only the actors but also the environment itself. For such emerging companies it is crucial to rely on local innovation communities in order to build and maintain a competitive advantage while balancing a number of paradoxes relater to their involvement in these communities. By summarizing the related academic research and by interviewing participants in innovation communities focusing on emerging technologies, both in Canada and China, this research hopes to help identify the most effective strategies for leveraging innovation communities in order to develop and maintain the competitive advantage. The industrial partner will gain a better understanding of the business environment and of the strategies to gain an advantage in both Canadian and Chinese market. It will also help the partner and other firms to bridge the cultural gap between different entrepreneurial environments when globalizing the program and the market.

Cannabis used for medical purposes by children in Canada

Cannabis products are being used for a variety of conditions. In Canada, there are no cannabis products approved for use in children. Without evidence from clinical trials doctors are hesitant to recommend cannabis products for children. In order for doctors to feel confident in advising parents on medical cannabis they need better information on if these products work, how to dose them and long-term safety. Our national collaboration between parents, doctors, researchers, industry and policy makers will study the use of medical cannabis in children. We will review the literature and work with parents to identify knowledge gaps and priorities. As a supporter of this project, Canopy Health Innovations will contribute to important research and education that advances care and treatment options for paediatric patients. Our goal is to equip parents and doctors with the materials needed to make informed decisions about using medical cannabis in children.

Characterizing changes in the lung environment that promote osteosarcoma metastasis

Osteosarcoma is the most common type of bone cancer in both dogs and humans. The high mortality rate of this disease can be attributed to its ability to spread (metastasize) to the lungs. Metastasis is a complex and multi-step process. To promote the survival of cancer cells when they spread, organs can change their characteristics at a microscopic level. In response, cancer cells can alter their overall behavior, such as how they grow and respond to therapy. The goal of this project is to understand what changes occur in the lung, how this can affect certain proteins within the cell, and investigate a new way to detect these tissue changes. It is predicted that the lung undergoes drastic alterations in tissue rigidity, and this impacts the activation of various protumorigenic molecules inside the invading tumor cells. This in turn promotes the colonization of the lungs by the invading tumor cells.

Novel bioreactors for UV disinfection and resource recovery

Municipalities are facing significant challenges related to water treatment, including aging infrastructure, increasingly more stringent water quality limits (for drinking water) and discharge requirements (for wastewater), climate change and extreme weather events, constrained plant space, municipal budget stress, etc. Summer interns in this Mitacs project will be conducting research on novel bioreactors for UV disinfection and resource recovery from municipal wastewater to reduce cost, energy and footprint, and to improve environmental sustainability. These efforts will significantly enhance Trojan Technologies (Trojan)’s long-term competitiveness. It is expected that this academic / industry collaboration model will greatly benefit the learning and experience of summer interns, and will help accelerate innovation at Trojan. It is the first time for Trojan to apply the collaboration model with undergraduate students on a research project.

The History of the Quebec Common Gaol

This is a project to update the Literary and Historical Society of Quebec’s permanent exhibit, Doing Time: The Quebec City Common Gaol (1808 – 1867). Since the exhibit was launched in 2011, much research has been done on the history of the gaol. Doing Time is seen by some 25,000 visitors per year. For some, it is their only exposure to the history of prison life. The exhibit needs to be as accurate as possible. Revision will be done by an intern working under the supervision of Donald Fyson, professor of history at Université Laval and specialist in the gaol’s history.

Développement d’un nouvel implant pour le traitement de la dysplasie de la hanche basé sur une méthode de simulation numérique du contact et stress de la surface articulaire

Le projet consiste à développer un nouveau type de traitement pour une maladie liée à la croissance osseuse du bassin, nommé la dysplasie de la hanche. Présentement, cette maladie est souvent traitée en effectuant une chirurgie où le bassin est scié, réorienté et fixé en place. Alternativement, le traitement proposé serait d’installer une prothèse sur le bassin afin de compenser pour le manque de croissance osseuse. Cette prothèse serait conçue et fabriquées avec des outils de modélisation numériques et d’usinage à la fine pointe de la technologie. Elle pourra donc être précisément personnalisée à chaque patient. Les Laboratoires Bodycad inc. bénéficieront de cette recherche, car les connaissances acquises permettront de développer un nouveau produit disponible commercialement au public.

Applied Research in Performance Enhancement for Quantum Annealing

D-Wave Systems develops and manufactures quantum annealing processors. These processors implement a model of quantum computation that seeks to solve hard problems by exploiting quantum effects such as tunneling and superposition. The aim of this project is to study and improve the performance of quantum annealing processors by mitigating inherent and implementation-dependent failure mechanisms for near-term quantum annealing devices. This will benefit D-Wave by improving the performance of their processors, and will drive forward the field of quantum annealing in general by expanding our understanding of real-world failure mechanisms in quantum annealing processors.
