To ensure that PPPH priority projects are developed using the most up-to-date evidence and to increase the likelihood of project success, evidence synthesis will be crucial in facilitating a deeper understanding of community health issues, contributing factors, associated health inequities, and appropriate interventions to improve health outcomes. The objective of this project is to conduct […]

AltaML is an innovative company capitalizing on a major technological trend: artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, enabled by big data, are driving a fourth industrial revolution. AI will transform all industries, but traditional industries face challenges in implementing AI. AltaML has a unique business model to overcome barriers to adoption of AI solutions by industry, which […]

STEM programs grew after 2018 in Canada, but only a fraction of graduates worked in a STEM field (CFI, 2022). Less women enter the STEM field and even less in the field are Black women who face challenges finding employment in the industry, leading to a small number pursuing STEM careers, including those STEM careers […]

Our project, MindVitality Pro, is all about creating a special app to help older folks keep their brains active and stay socially connected. As people age, they might have trouble with memory and thinking, which can be tough. Our app will be like a friendly guide, offering fun brain exercises and games, tailored to each […]

This project presents an innovative approach to personalized nutrition using 3D food printing technology. It comprises two key components. Firstly, a decision-support system is designed to evaluate the feasibility of turning a 3D food design into a tangible, edible product. This system helps ensure that the food is not only nutritious but also practical to […]

Pipelines carry important resources like oil and gas across long distances. These pipelines sometimes cross areas with natural dangers like landslides which can stress or damage them. This study aims to create computer models to understand how pipelines react to these dangers using different approaches. Different types of pipelines and the ways they interact with […]

This project is motivated by a significant demand for eco-friendly and recyclable composite structures for lightweight spoolable composite piping for oil, gas and water applications. Therefore, this partnership (with Flexpipe at Mattr Infrastructure Technologies) aims to determine an application envelope for multilayer spoolable larger-diameter composite piping by considering lightweight fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite structures. In addition, […]

There is an urgent need to better understand large-scale disruptions, including the pandemic, and related workplace health policy changes impact the health and wellness of fly-in fly-out (FIFO) workers, who already experience high levels of stress and anxiety due to their unique work arrangement. During the pandemic, companies made drastic changes to ensure employee safety […]

The primary source of green hydrogen, faces several barriers. One of the main issues is that it relies heavily on costly and scarce noble metals, namely platinum, iridium, and ruthenium. The utilization of these metals brings into question their supply chain availability, sustainability in green hydrogen projects, and overall cost. On the other hand, AEM […]

In addition to food uses, vegetable oils are increasingly a source for renewable biomaterials and biofuels. Recent progress in the development of a biobased economy is focused on introduction and improvement of novel crop plants for non-food applications. The proposed project is part of an international collaborative effort to develop camelina as a new industrial […]

Fairness has gained unprecedented support in a world of daily emerging scientific inquisition and discovery, aiming to tackle algorithmic bias effectively. Extensive efforts have been devoted to defining and embodying what is bias (discrimination) and developing tools that enable machine learning practitioners to detect and mitigate bias during algorithm design. However, mysteries are yet to […]
