Towards making graphics accessible to blind people

There has been a lot of effort in making printed media accessible to low vision or blind individuals. Braille has been extensively utilized to make text accessible to the blind. Software that automatically converts text to speech has also been employed for this. However, the existing solutions are not adequate for conveying graphical information to […]

Stable tungsten isotope fractionation study of Archean rocks from the Saglek-Hebron Gneiss Complex (Northern Labrador)

The study or ancient rocks gives us a window into our planet’s beginnings. Unfortunately, most rocks dating back to the Earth’s formation have now been erased from the Earth surface. They have been eroded or recycled by geological processes. This Globalink research award will be used to study rocks from the Saglek-Hebron Gneiss complex (northern […]

Advancing foundations of restoration ecology for fish habitat in urban centers

As we continue in the new geological epoch entitled the Anthropocene dominated by human activities, habitat degradation and loss put fish populations in jeopardy. Ecological restoration is the process of assisting the recovery of damaged ecosystems with the goal of conserving biodiversity. With limited resources available for ecological restoration, it is crucial that these efforts […]

Guidance, Navigation, and Control for Autonomous Spacecraft Docking

Current spacecraft rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking systems typically rely on human-monitored or controlled Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) systems. This project focuses on an autonomous GNC system specifically for spacecraft rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking applications. Autonomous systems are advantageous as they allow for operation without human intervention, do not rely on intermittent communication […]

Her Mentors: Navigating Barriers of Mentorship for Racialized Newcomer Women through inclusive design

Racialized newcomer women often face significant challenges in accessing mentorship opportunities, which can be caused by a range of factors including language barriers, cultural differences, lack of networks, and discrimination. To address these challenges, the ‘Her Mentors’ project aims to develop inclusive mentorship programs specifically designed for racialized newcomer women and provide targeted support and […]

Implementation of the Post-Quantum Cryptographic Algorithm: Multivariate Polynomial Public Key (MPPK)

The Multivariate Polynomial Digital Signature Scheme (MPPK-DS) is a new Post-Quantum cryptographic scheme that relies on the hardness of solving a set of multivariate polynomials. The scheme is an ideal candidate for the new NIST call for Post-Quantum digital signature algorithms that intents to diversify the post-quantum signature standards. In this project, we will work […]

Accelerating the Market for Green Urban Housing

Like most Canadian municipalities, the City of Ottawa is struggling to reign in urban sprawl and encourage sustainable residential development. According to my doctoral research, few residential developers in Ottawa are heeding the call to build green. Profits and markets are larger for single detached houses in the suburbs, and housing consumers choose green construction […]

Scaling Up Trauma- and Violence-Informed Physical Activity for Mental Health and Well-being

Despite the overwhelming evidence that physical activity promotes overall positive health, there are limited trauma-and-violence-informed health promotion strategies directed towards equity-owed populations. Women experiencing multiple marginalization’s face numerous barriers to participation in physical activity and are at higher risk for negative health outcomes. Engaging in regular physical activity can have numerous benefits such as improving […]
