Measuring and Supporting Synergistic Approaches to Workplace Well-being, Performance and Sustainability

The relationship between worker well-being, organizational performance, and environmental sustainability is synergistic. When organizations focus on one area, it often positively influences the others, leading to a virtuous cycle where the well-being of workers, the success of the organization, and the health of the planet are all enhanced. The purpose of this project is to determine what (if any) evaluation mechanism (s) employers are using to measure well-being, performance and sustainability in an aggregated way, and design/find a new tool that employers can use.

Sex differences and body morphology on thermal discomfort thresholds during rest and exercise

Thermal comfort can be broadly defined as a scenario where an individual expresses satisfaction with their thermal environment. However, our thermal environment is rarely constant, and these changes in our thermal environment can negatively affect our thermal comfort. Additionally, a certain thermal environment can be comfortable for one person but uncomfortable for another, because our size, sex, previous experiences, fitness, and preferences all vary. Therefore, it is important to understand how human traits (particularly our sex and body measurements) affect our thermal perception. Recently, a new tool has been developed that allows individuals to continuously monitor thermal perception. Therefore, this research proposes to utilize this tool to track when and what thermal conditions are associated with thermal discomfort. By better understanding when thermal discomfort occurs, and the thermal conditions responsible for this discomfort, will be valuable to the development of new clothing technologies to improve thermal comfort.

Etiology, prevention and rehabilitation of shoulder injuries in elite swimmers and waterpolo players: a longitudinal study

Chronic shoulder injuries are common in athletes competing in overhead sports such as waterpolo, swimming and synchronized swimming. These injuries are costly both financially and in terms of performance to the athletes and sport organizations. The purpose of this project is to create new sport-specific clinical and functional assessment protocols and to improve training strategies for shoulder injury prevention and elite sport performance. This will hopefully improve on the current medical and performance services offered to the athletes by the INS Québec and/or OTP, specifically but not limited to injuries or performance issues related to the shoulder. The partner organization could eventually use many of the tools and services developed through this project with other sports and in other settings. The ultimate goal of the project is to help our Canadian athletes win medals through improved performance and reduced injuries. Communication and education to the developmental groups will be facilitated in order to prevent injuries in younger athletes, better preparing them for a long and successful career.

Possible Methods for Detection and Removal of Microplastics Contamination in Municipal Compost

Our proposed research aims to find ways to detect and remove harmful microplastics from municipal compost, an area that has not been widely studied. By identifying the types and concentrations of microplastics and testing effective removal techniques, this project will contribute to improved municipality composting processes and management.
Our partnership with the City of Kamloops will allow for the practical application of these findings, leading to the development of detection and removal best practices for compost management at the municipality level. The intended outcomes are hoped to enhance policies and regulations in compost management and quality, not only in Kamloops but for municipalities across Canada, promoting safer environmental and economic practices for a better and sustainable quality of life.
We believe that this work will support healthier communities and contribute to Canada’s leadership in sustainable waste management, providing both economic and societal advantages.

Influence des tests d’intrusion sur l’analyse de risque en technologie de l’information

La montée exponentielle des différentes technologies servant au traitement de l’information digitale a marqué les dix dernières années par des vagues d’événements de sécurité aussi importante les unes que les autres. Les systèmes appartenant aux entreprises, gouvernements, organisations sont exposés à de nombreuses menaces et les mesures misent en place ne sont souvent pas suffisantes pour réduire de manière considérable le risque d’attaque. Ces bris d’information conduisent la plupart du temps à de graves pertes monétaires pour les entreprises. Dans le but d’adresser ces problèmes et irritants, le développement d’une méthodologie proactive visant à baser des indicateurs de risques sur les résultats de tests d’intrusions va être mis en place. Elle permettra de structurer les tests effectués sur les actifs informationnels et fournira des recommandations sur les différents outils et supports permettant de combler les besoins techniques et managériaux. De ce fait, elle donne un avantage concurrentiel à l’entreprise partenaire grâce à un modèle de référence basé sur une organisation complète, structurée et mettant en avant une amélioration continu. Cela permet de garantir une meilleure qualité de service et favorise la relation de confiance avec le client, dans un cadre d’intelligence d’affaire.

Development of new approach methods (NAMs) for pesticide risk assessment

Pesticides are widely used in agriculture to protect crops and increase yields. However, their overuse can lead to environmental pollution and health risks. Understanding how pesticides break down in the environment and within organisms is crucial for assessing their potential harm. To develop new computer modeling techniques to predict how pesticides degrade in the environment and within organisms. This will help us better understand the risks associated with pesticide use and develop strategies to minimize them. In this project, we will focus on two key degradation processes by: (1) studying how pesticides break down in the air and water, particularly at the interface between the two. (2) investigating how CYP enzymes in organisms, break down pesticides, especially those containing specific chemical groups. By using advanced computer simulations, we aim to predict how different pesticides will degrade in the environment and how environmental factors and chemical structural features will influence the transformation and kinetics of product formation. This research will contribute to a safer and more sustainable agricultural future by addressing the diverse transformation products from the active ingredients in pesticides products.

Behavioral Dysfunctions After Preterm Birth: The Role of Vasopressin

This project aims to explore the role of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in cognitive and anxiety-like behavior dysfunctions observed in preterm birth models. Using a neonatal hyperoxia rat model, which mimics bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and associated complications of preterm birth, the study will assess behavioral outcomes and AVP levels in different experimental conditions. The findings are expected to clarify the mechanisms linking elevated AVP to behavior dysfunctions, paving the way for targeted therapies to improve long-term neurological and emotional outcomes in preterm individuals. Participating institutions will benefit from advancing knowledge in neonatal care, fostering collaborative research, and contributing to innovative solutions for preterm health challenges.
