Content centric networks

The advent of smartphones and the associated change in usage patterns indicates that carrier voice revenues are constantly going down and are expected to almost vanish in the near future. Data revenues are picking up but not at a rate which will make up for the shortfall in voice revenues. Also, the increase in data […]

Study to increase production efficiency in a lumber recycling process

This project promotes the use of recycled material by diverting it from current waste streams, thus reducing the pressures on local landfills and positively contributing to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. However, processing lumber waste generated in construction and demolition projects remains challenging due to the variability in dimensions and wood species as well […]

Ex Vivo Live Imaging of Hematopoietic Stem Cells in D. melanogaster

This project aims to investigate asymmetric cell division (ACD) in blood cell development using live imaging and Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) as a model system. Hematopoiesis, the process of blood cell formation, relies on tightly regulated mechanisms to balance stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Disruptions in this balance can cause blood disorders such as leukemia. […]

Digital Innovations to Transform Sexual Medicine Care

Male sexual dysfunction, including erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, ejaculatory dysfunction, low libido, and low testosterone, affects most men at some point and often requires chronic management. However, access to evidence-based care in Canada is limited, care is fragmented across disciplines, and existing digital platforms lack efficiency and innovation in sexual medicine. Teumo Health Technologies Inc. […]

L2M – Otherside Health

The project aims to provide accessible, empirically-guided, and population-specific mental health interventions. These interventions will be co-created with the populations who will benefit from them, using a participatory action framework developed by applicant Kev Kokoska’s PhD research with incarcerated people. The core idea is to tailor and repurpose the mental health tools that have proven […]

Improving stream tracer gauging techniques

Stream discharge, a measurement of the volume of water passing a location along a stream, is an essential variable in many engineering and scientific projects. Discharge can be measured by injecting tracer material (such as common table salt or coloured dyes) into a stream and observing how the material mixes in the stream channel. For […]

Towards a Theory of Blockchain as a Socio-Informational-Technical System: Perceptions and challenges of adopting verifiable credentials in the public sector.

Blockchain technology and VCs, in principle, can enhance the security, privacy, efficiency, and trustworthiness of the digital exchange of credentials. However, several challenges hinder the adoption of VCs and blockchain, including resistance from the public and some authorities driven by a lack of understanding of the technologies and political motives. There is a limited empirical […]
