Demand for metals, including gold, is ever increasing particularly as modern technologies, including sustainable energy production, rely on such finite resources. As easily accessible surficial deposits in traditional mining areas such as the Sixtymile gold district, YK, deplete ever more advanced approaches to exploration are required that search deeper in the ‘bedrock’. However, exploration for […]

Current testing for SARS-CoV-2 focuses on detection of the pathogen via isolated nucleic acids, routinely from nasopharyngeal swabs. To our knowledge, no approved clinical SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic tests using nasopharyngeal swabs incorporate measurements of host responses at the time of diagnosis. Monitoring host responses during SARS-CoV-2 infection is important, as stratification of COVID-19 patients based on […]

In the proposed exchange project, we plan to develop a new collaborative partnership that integrates the expertise of advanced optical imaging instrumentation (McMaster: Fang) and image sequence analysis (INRIA: Kervrann) towards new dynamic imaging technologies. Specifically, we are interested in optofluidics imaging flowcytometers for point-of-care infectious diseases diagnosis as well as high throughput protein-protein interaction […]

Antxl is building and taking care of HealEn of market in Canada. HealEn works in musculoskeletal health area.

This co-op term will largely be focused around the planning and successful execution of the Executive Health program to be offered by Voak Health. The role will entail aspects of marketing, business development and operations optimization.

Convalescent plasma–used for over a century as the first treatment option in outbreaks caused by novel pathogens. The therapy involves transfusion of blood plasma from recovered donors, which contains antibodies, that can prevent or treat infection in recipients. Convalescent plasa therapy has been observed empirically or in small studies to confer passive immunity to susceptible […]

Responsibilities: -Development of operational plans for the opening of the new Hospice space -Development of strategic and operational plans for long-term care facility to leverage digital health solutions to improve presence of specialized care on site and to minimize need for hospital transfers -Development of strategic plan to increase virtual care options for ambulatory clinics […]

Diabetes mellitus, a metabolic disease affecting 422 million people worldwide, had often been associated with a loss in bone quality and strength, causing a higher fracture risk. However, thorough characterization of diabetic bone at the nanoscale has never been completed. This may indeed be relevant, as the structure and chemistry of the nanoscale components of […]

Under the conditions of social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic, most individuals are experiencing a major shift in daily routines. For some, having a flexible work schedule may be beneficial to their natural bodily rhythms. For others, the lack of structure that was previously provided by an external schedule may impose misalignment on behavioural circadian […]

The principal objective of this project is to design and fabricate optically functional, slim, flexible, dielectric coatings – luminescent wavelength encoded lattices (LWELs) – that enhance sunlight harvesting and therefore, within the short term, have a measurable, significant impact on the efficiency of commercially available solar cells. LWELs will combine two powerful approaches to incandescent […]

The intern will be primarily be asked to help carry out our ongoing customer discovery project. The intern will also help assist the business team with its existing sales and marketing plan. Finally, the intern will have a regular shift as a first point of contact monitoring the customer support requests, assisting the customers with […]

My proposed Mitacs-funded research will study health and disease in the medieval (11th-15th centuries AD) population from St. Peter’s Monastery in Osor, Croatia through a study of disease patterns, biochemical analysis of diet, and mortality trends. I will use syndemic theory to frame my research, which maintains that diseases and health conditions can interact with […]
