The proposed project aims to develop a wearable biosensor for real-time monitoring of critical cardiovascular disease (CVD) biomarkers, such as C-reactive protein, Troponin I, and Myoglobin, along with physiological parameters like heart rate. The biosensor will achieve high selectivity and durability by utilizing molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) technology. The intern will collaborate with Professor Joseph […]

Pediatric therapists struggle to obtain accurate grip strength measurements because current tools were originally designed for adults. These tools require excessive hand strength and fail to engage children, leading to unreliable data. As a result, therapists often resort to subjective estimates, making it difficult to track progress, tailor treatment plans, or justify therapy to insurance […]

This research project pioneers the development of novel molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)/copper hybrid materials through electrochemical intercalation and exfoliation techniques. By transforming readily available powdered molybdenite—a byproduct of Canadian mining operations—into atomically thin layers with enhanced properties, the work creates a sustainable pathway for producing high-performance two-dimensional materials without organic additives that typically compromise conductivity. The […]

This project aims to enhance the safety, precision, and efficiency of robotic surgical assistants — collaborative robots designed to work alongside surgeons — by developing a computer vision-based system that prevents collisions in real time. Using cameras and advanced image processing techniques, the system will monitor the operating room, detecting people and other obstacles. It […]

This project focuses on the development, testing, and validation of next-generation solid lubricant coatings for cutting tools designed for hard-to-cut materials commonly used in aerospace and automotive industries. Traditional machining processes often rely on oil- and water-based lubricants, leading to excessive waste, environmental contamination, and increased operational costs. By introducing advanced solid lubricant coatings, this […]

The project’s goal is to investigate the use of a 2D reduced graphene oxide (rGO) based microfluidic channel driven electrochemical biosensor to detect AMI biomarkers. The device could be able to identify heart attacks before they happen. Therefore, it may be beneficial to reduce the enormous number of deaths brought on by this illness worldwide. […]

Breast cancer is a global health challenge, affecting millions of women annually. In 2020, it was the most common cancer in 109 countries, including Canada. Breast-conserving surgery (BCS), or lumpectomy, is the standard of care for early-stage breast cancer. The goal of BCS is to remove malignant tissue while preserving healthy tissue but achieving tumor-free […]

This collaborative research project between McMaster University’s Materials Science and Engineering department and Grenoble INP Phelma’s SIMaP laboratory aims to investigate the development of accurate strain measurement techniques using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

This project aims to accelerate the discovery of efficient high-entropy alloy (HEA) catalytic materials for CO2 electrolysis by integrating advanced quantum AI-based optimization techniques with quantum mechanics computation. By combining these cutting-edge methods, the project seeks to identify novel, efficient, and costeffective catalysts that can convert CO2 into valuable products, contributing to the achievement of […]

“Green shipping corridors” are being established globally, including interest in new cargos of hydrogen (H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). The former is challenging to transport in neat form, making liquid organic carriers (LOCs) and ammonia (NH3) attractive forms for transport. Carbon sequestration sites are also being established for CO2 disposal, however many are located far […]

The GRAME is currently conducting an extensive opportunity study to highlight the potential role of trams in the movement of people and goods within the Greater Montreal Area. Through this project, it has collaborated with Coop Carbone and GoMove to assess the potential for parcel distribution via a possible pan-Montreal tram network. According to modeling, […]
