Lexical Development in Multilingual Immigrant Children: Cognitive and Sociocultural Influences on English Vocabulary Acquisition

This project explores how multilingual immigrant children aged 8–13 in Canadian ESL support programs acquire English vocabulary during their early years of settlement. Vocabulary development is crucial for academic success, yet many newcomer children face barriers that go beyond language exposure alone. The research investigates how cognitive factors, such as working memory and phonological processing, interact with sociocultural influences, including parental education, home language use, and quality of instruction. It aims to explain individual differences in vocabulary outcomes, even among children from similar socioeconomic backgrounds. By integrating quantitative and qualitative methods, the study will also explore how informal knowledge (e.g., storytelling, community literacy practices) and emotional experiences impact vocabulary learning. This fills a gap in current Canadian research, which rarely examines how these variables operate together in real ESL classrooms. The findings will inform differentiated instruction and culturally responsive practices, supporting educators in addressing the diverse needs of newcomer students. In a multilingual country like Canada, where one in four school-aged children speaks a non-English language at home, this project will contribute to equitable, evidence-based education policy and improved outcomes for immigrant learners.

Greycor Projects Ltd.

Greycor Projects Ltd. is a dynamic residential construction company that specializes in crafting custom homes designed to meet the evolving needs of clients across urban and rural landscapes. As Greycor continues to expand its operations and manage increasingly complex projects, the organization has identified a critical need to innovate its administrative and financial management processes. Currently, data entry, accounts tracking, and reporting are performed using conventional methods that are functional but not optimized for scalability or efficiency. This creates challenges in maintaining real-time oversight of financial health, project metrics, and operational workflows—especially as the company grows and takes on larger, more diverse projects.
The innovation priority for Greycor is to design and implement administrative systems and tools that will transform how financial and operational data is collected, organized, and utilized. This project will go beyond routine tasks by introducing creative solutions for streamlining workflows, automating reporting processes, and improving accuracy in financial tracking. For example, developing improved spreadsheet models, refining QuickBooks Online usage, and identifying process gaps will allow Greycor to reduce manual workload and enable data-driven decision-making. These innovations will not only improve internal efficiency but also position the company to better serve its clients and adapt to future business demands.

Guiding delisting decisions in the Great Lakes area: Development of a Bayesian network modeling framework for predicting eutrophication in the Bay of Quinte – Year 2

The Bay of Quinte, a Z-shaped embayment at the northeastern end of Lake Ontario, represents a characteristic case, where scientific uncertainty underlies the current management efforts to integrate environmental concerns with socioeconomic values. The proposed project aims to develop a methodological tool that can be easily engaged with the policy practice of adaptive management and to illustrate the ability of this framework to update and improve model predictions and management actions. The project design is perfectly tailored to dictate the Best Management Practices that would lead to significant reduction of phosphorus export from the Bay of Quinte watershed and to evaluate the uncertainty associated with the assessment of the Beneficial Use Impairment “Eutrophication and Undesirable Algae”. The proposed research will be a reference point of how rational modelling and empirical knowledge can be used to guide system restoration and spark collaboration with the industry for future green initiatives.

Common Risk Factors in the Stablecoin Market

This project focuses on understanding what makes the prices of stablecoins (a type of cryptocurrency designed to stay stable) go up or down. Traditional financial models don’t fully explain how these digital assets behave, especially during market changes or when new regulations are introduced. By studying both general market trends and specific factors like liquidity, issuer trust, and new laws like the MiCA regulation in Europe, this research aims to create a better tool for evaluating stablecoin risks. The expected benefit to the participating institutions is the opportunity to strengthen international research collaboration, share advanced expertise in digital finance, and enhance their reputation as leaders in innovative financial research.

A wireless headset for power-aware EEG/non-EEG signals processing and seizure warning – Year two

Epilepsy is a debilitating neurological disorder affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide (World Health Organization). This project proposes to develop a SMART (Seizure Monitoring At the Right Time) Headset for these patients to monitor their brain signal and track their movements, heart rates and breathing patterns. This headset will have new types of sensors suitable for long term usage and sleep. An intelligent micro-chip in the headset will track patient continuously and detect epilepsy syndromes, and warn patient and caregiver in advance (e.g., few seconds to minutes), which may prevent a patient’s life threatening accident. This SMART Headset will connect globally through patient’s mobile device and allow the clinicians monitor the patient remotely 24-hr/7-day with less clinical expense and government healthcare cost. This device will provide continuous personal assistance and may allow patients to work full-time and live independently, and reduce government burden in healthcare and boost economic growth.

Resonateur à ondes acoustiques de surface transversal (SH-SAW) sans réflecteurs pour la caractérisation biologiques

La technologie de biodétection est essentielle pour les diagnostics médicaux, la surveillance de l’environnement et la recherche biologique fondamentale. Alors que la résonance plasmonique de surface (SPR) offre une détection sans étiquette sensible aux changements d’indice de réfraction et que les capteurs à ondes acoustiques de surface (SAW) excellent dans les milieux liquides et sondent les propriétés mécaniques, tous deux se heurtent à des limites en termes de sensibilité ultime et de richesse d’information. L’acousto-plasmonique, qui combine l’acoustique et la nanophotonique, offre une voie transformatrice pour surmonter ces limitations. Ce projet vise à concevoir, fabriquer et valider de nouveaux biocapteurs acousto-plasmoniques intégrés en tirant parti du couplage élasto-optique entre les SAW et les plasmons de surface localisés (LSP) dans des architectures multicouches nanostructurées. En générant des SAW à haute fréquence (par exemple, des SAW horizontaux à cisaillement pour une performance optimale des liquides et un couplage électromécanique) qui modulent dynamiquement les propriétés optiques des nanostructures plasmoniques (via des changements d’indice de réfraction induits par la déformation), nous obtiendrons une sensibilité accrue et permettrons une détection multimodale, en corrélant les changements de signaux optiques et acoustiques lors de la liaison de biomolécules.
