Development of a system (template, plugin, API) to integrate cloud based services such as GIS, IoT and interactive gaming streams into a browser based user interface.

“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

This project investigates the SPbeta bacteriophage, a model organism in phage biology with significant implications for microbiology and biotechnology. The primary objective is to develop and refine methods for its purification and biochemical characterization, enabling a detailed analysis of its structure and function. Using targeted deletion mutants, we aim to identify key genes and proteins […]

The boreal zone of Alberta is under increasing pressure from natural resource extraction. Roads, seismic lines, well pads, and other industrial-disturbance features exert cumulative environmental effects on the region’s vegetation, wildlife, hydrology, and carbon dynamics. The purpose of this project is to develop remote-sensing tools and workflows that help us describe, understand, and mitigate some […]

As one of the most promising pathways to achieve zero-emission targets, Canada and Germany launched their respective hydrogen strategies. Polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWEs) for green hydrogen production and hydrogen-fed PEM fuel cells (PEMFCs) for zero-emission vehicles are two technologies considered to be crucial parts of the future hydrogen infrastructure in both countries. Although […]

This project aims to improve carbon capture technologies by testing and optimizing new solvents and process designs for capturing CO2 from industrial emissions. By using advanced computer simulations and experimental testing, the project will help identify the most effective solvents and strategies to reduce the costs and energy needed for carbon capture. The project will […]

Methane is a key greenhouse gas (GHG), and atmospheric methane emissions in Alberta are associated with a variety of industry sectors: sanitary landfills, wood waste landfills, feedlot operations and the oil and gas sector. When the quantities released at individual locations are relatively small, this methane cannot be used as an energy source; therefore, environmentally […]

This project aims to develop a novel wearable microneedle patch that can painlessly measure muscle activity more accurately and comfortably than current technologies, with the potential to transform how neuromuscular disorders like Parkinson’s are diagnosed and managed. It leverages the University of Calgary’s expertise in low-cost, scalable microfabrication techniques and University College Dublin’s expertise in […]

Chemical property predictions using quantum machine learning (QML) lie at the intersection of machine learning, quantum computing, and computational chemistry. QML models often use parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) that abstract gate-level quantum operations but offer limited flexibility in adjustable parameters. To enhance QML model performance and generalizability, incorporating pulse-level operations, which lie below gate-level in […]

The main aim of the project is to develop the characteristics of a Prosumer, i.e. a consumer that interacts on-line with a company providing useful and insightful comments on its products. Data from consumer interaction databases are will be analyzed using the tools of data mining in order to accomplish the goals of the project..

Finding reliable sources of the metals needed for the energy transition is one of the biggest challenges in the minerals sector. This research project focuses on identifying critical metals such as indium, gallium, and germanium in zinc deposits in the Grenville Province (Ontario). These metals, often present as trace elements in sphalerite (zinc ore), are […]

Weather is a significant driver of daily natural gas and electricity price moves in various North American markets. Weather drives retail energy consumption, which in turn drives market prices through a supply and demand process. The combined volume and price uncertainty is one of the main financial risks for an energy retailer like Direct Energy […]
