Evolving Therapy with Technology

This project aims to transition Mindful Therapy from its traditional, in-person approach to a more integrated digital-centric model. The primary objective is to implement a comprehensive digital platform that will enhance patient management and therapy delivery. This involves evaluating current workflows, developing a strategy to implement the platform, and providing thorough staff training to ensure a smooth transition. The new platform will include electronic health records (EHR), secure messaging, video conferencing, and more.
Key challenges include increased demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic and integrating technology into existing workflows. However, there are significant opportunities in digital transformation. By leveraging telehealth and automating administrative tasks, Mindful Therapy can reduce barriers to care and improve service accessibility.
The project will also involve a personalized approach, using data-driven insights to refine services and tailor care to individual patients. Innovative service models like online group therapy and guided self-help modules will expand therapeutic reach and impact. The project’s ultimate goal is to make Mindful Therapy a leader in digital mental health services, enhancing efficiency, accessibility, and overall patient care.
The transition to digital will also require training programs tailored to staff skill levels, ongoing support for technical issues, and collaborative strategic planning with stakeholders to ensure smooth implementation. The outcome is a fully functional platform that promotes efficient workflows, staff competence, and patient-centered care.

Mitacs Accelerate Research Proposal – Lethbridge College – Optimized yield, quality, and power consumption with full spectrum LED lights in greenhouse production systems.

Supplemental lighting for greenhouse production, such as LED lights, is essential for greenhouse producers in Northern climates. HPS lights are currently the most used supplemental light, but they are approximately two times less power efficient compared to LED. Unfortunately, LEDs manufactured for horticultural purposes are very expensive compared to industrial full-spectrum High Bay LEDs, which hampers the industry’s adoption of new technology.  
 
The main objective of this AFC-funded and industry-supported project is to determine whether the yield gain justifies the high cost of horticultural LEDs or whether considerably less expensive High Bay LEDs can be used in greenhouse production instead.

Recyclage des plastiques flexibles

Dans ce projet, on propose de produire du mobilier urbain (pièces extérieures) à partir de matières 100% recyclées. Pour ce faire, des plastiques flexibles (films, pellicules, sacs, etc.) en fin de vie seront récupérés pour être utilisés ensemble (mélanges de résines) ou avec l’ajout d’autres résidus solides. Ces résidus seront sélectionnés parmi les matières disponibles sur le territoire de la RITMRG (Régie intermunicipal de traitement des matières résiduelles de la Gaspésie) qui est le partenaire du projet. Des formulations (avec ou sans additifs) seront produites par extrusion pour ensuite utiliser différents procédés de moulage (compression, extrusion, injection et rotomoulage) pour la fabrication de pièces à l’échelle réelle (bordures, chaises, pot de fleurs, pavés, tables, etc.). Ces pièces serviront comme démonstrateurs afin de développer de nouvelles gammes de produits.

Towards improved stability of early-age masonry walls using temporary bracing at the construction stage.

Despite significant development of various construction materials, masonry is still considered as one of the most cost-effective materials. However, they are often vulnerable to wind-induced lateral loads caused during construction stage (within 1 to 2 days of construction) when the masonry is yet to achieve full strength. Temporary bracing systems are often used to support these structures at construction site to avoid loss of materials and injury to workers. However, design of these temporary bracings is relatively subjective and tend to be very conservative to maintain safety at workplace. The industry partner, Canada Masonry Design Centre, has an immediate urgency for improved efficiency of bracing of walls under construction which require a better understanding of early-age properties of masonry. This proposal aims at accurate characterization of early-age masonry and development of stringent design guidelines for bracings of newly constructed wall systems to eliminate the current conservative and uneconomical design.

Advancing Cheque Fraud Detection and Localization: A Holistic Approach Integrating CNN and Grad-CAM

The primary objective of this research is to enhance fraud detection in cheques by implementing a comprehensive approach that addresses anomalies in formatting, signatures, and other critical elements. With a focus on fortifying bank applications against financial malpractices, our goal is to develop a robust fraud localization system. To achieve this, we will utilize a CNN implemented by Verafin for efficient fraud localization cheques. We aim to approximate and localize areas within the cheque that may be susceptible to fraud, leveraging techniques such as the Grad-CAM method. This involves analyzing important regions in cheque images to identify potential fraudulent elements, such as forged signatures or irregular formatting. By combining classification with detailed localization, our research aims to provide a comprehensive solution for enhancing the integrity and security of cheque processing systems.

Approaches to supporting people experiencing complex and overlapping vulnerabilities in Downtown East Toronto

The meaningful issues that are deeply-rooted in the Downtown East Toronto include poverty, homelessness, housing, community safety, mental health, substance use and the drug poisoning crisis. Challenges accessing formal systems for support and resources results from experiences with overlapping systems of exclusion and intersecting points of oppressions like stigma, racism or gender. The main question of this study is how can City of Toronto and community resources, programs, policy or partnership opportunities be leveraged to support people experiencing complex vulnerabilities in the Downtown East. The goal is to achieve this through leveraging the significant work that is already being done in the area and identifying the common elements that are shared between services providers, community members, clients and other stakeholders. It is focused on exploring strategies that can make a difference right now for those suffering in our communities in the Downtown East. This study uses a critical policy studies approach that has a big focus on social inequality and how this approach can be used to challenge existing inequality through policy work.

The Collaborative Production of “The Hospital of Unhappy Surprises”

Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic condition that leads to brittle bones and mild to severe bone deformities. People with OI often experience pain, discrimination, fear of breaking bones, and frequent hospitalizations. Because the condition is rare, the experiences of children with OI are not well understood by healthcare providers, who often lack guidelines and knowledge to provide OI care. At the same time, children and families with OI want better educational health resources related to OI. We have created a puppet theatre script called, “The Hospital of Unhappy Surprises” with 18 children with OI from Canada, the United States, and Europe. The play tells the story of their bad hospital experiences and vision for a good hospital. Now, we want to professionally animate the play with artists, OI healthcare providers, and scientists in London, UK, a leader in theatre and OI care and research. The play will become a free online educational resource for children with OI, families, healthcare providers, and healthcare institutions and showcase how we can improve care for children with OI. Most importantly, the project will strengthen partnerships between healthcare, arts, and community organizations, which can lead to new OI innovations down the line.

Community Capitals and Asset Mapping for the City of Lethbridge

Municipalities of all sizes are increasingly being asked to take on a greater role in terms of citizen-based lives, and extending their policy and planning purview into domains such as community sustainability and resilience, community economic development, functional regional development, and addressing the diversity of needs and expectations coming from both new-comers to Canada, and newcomers to the City. As a result, building a conceptually informed structure from which to understand the assets that support all citizens of the City is very important – this structure extends beyond physical or economic assets, and (using the Community Capitals Framework) is a way to understand how a wide range of assets in any community can help support the resilience and adaptability of that community. Built as a partnership between the City and University of Lethbridge, this project is intended to provide a foundation for city-based planning and program development that takes into account not just what is “in” the community, but how it is used, perceived and asssessed by different members of the general public and user communities.
