Evaluating the Downstream Water Quality Improvement and Peak Flow Reduction following Implementation of Green Stormwater Infrastructure in a Northern Climate

Green stormwater infrastructure (GI) is an approach to land development that attempts to retain and clean stormwater as close to the source as possible to reduce flooding and improve the water quality of urbanized watersheds. The objective of this study is to provide a field-based evaluation of how GI reduces peak flow and improves the […]

Evaluation of synthetic single domain antibodies against the HPV16 E6 protein and their potential for commercialization

Almost all cervical cancers are caused by a Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The current standard of care relies primarily on chemo- or radiation-therapy and surgery. These methods have several side effects leading to high morbidity of the affected patients. There is an urgent need to develop new therapeutic approaches that are more efficient, efficacious, and […]
