Plant-based foods, including beverages, cheese, and yogurts, have gained great attention from consumers due to their sustainability and health benefits. Earth’s Own devotes significant efforts to producing healthy plant-based beverages from sources like oats and almonds. In their next quest to expand their range of plant-based offerings, hempseed and legumes are selected for its richness […]

The three-dimensional food printing (3DFP) offers the food industry and consumers customizable food preparation and manufacturing possibilities. Several food products including plant proteins have been utilized in 3DFP applications. However, the printability of plant proteins needs to be enhanced to develop novel food structures with improved stability. Our previous research showed that atmospheric cold plasma […]

Water management and treatment of mineral tailings and oil sands tailings are becoming critical challenges for the sustainable development of natural resources exploration. Reclamation of these tailings is challenging due to a solid phase composed mainly by very fine particles and many other chemicals. With these characteristics, the tailings form a very stable colloidal system […]

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a slowly progressive chronic condition that is associated with aging and is characterized as joint pain. Individuals with early-stage OA usually attempt to treat their OA with pain medication therefore Alberta pharmacists can be seen as a first point of contact for these individuals to access appropriate care. Education, self-management, and exercise […]

MOTTIV Technologies and researchers from the University of Alberta will collaborate to create an “AI coach” which is a language based chatbot that will speak to athletes who use the MOTTIV app about a defined list of instances that are critical for a successful coach-athlete relationship. The goal is to make the chatbot called Coach […]

There is a large number of visually impaired people all over the world according to the World Health Organization. It reduces their mobility significantly as they may bump into obstacles. Robust real-time obstacle avoidance would be very helpful to increase their mobility. The main objective of this project is to develop a robust and fast […]

This project aims to develop, evaluate, and apply advanced solutions and techniques for assisting industrial plant operators in decision-making during abnormal situations, thereby improving plant safety and reliability. Currently, plant operators receive too many alarms, making it difficult to respond effectively. In industrial facilities, developing strategies for sustainable Environmental, Health, and Safety (EH&S) performance and […]

Combination therapy has been one of the cornerstones for combating cancers. Even though the survival rate of cancer patients after receiving combination therapy is improved dramatically, there are still many unsolved issues to prevent us from claiming combination therapy is a cure for cancers. Those issues include it does not apply to all types of […]
