Abdominal aortic aneurysms are a critical cardiovascular disease with a mortality rate over 80% when ruptured. With limited treatment options, especially for early-stage aneurysms, this project proposes the use of a novel therapeutic to limit growth and effectively treat early-stage AAA. The overall objective is to develop and evaluate the efficacy of stem cell delivery […]

This project is dedicated to unveiling how proteins within cell membranes adapt to their surroundings, particularly the lipid environment. Employing computer simulations and machine learning (ML), we focus on RAS signaling proteins and Mga2 transcription factors. RAS proteins, crucial for cell growth and division, are anchored to the cellular membrane and often exhibit mutations in […]

AltaML builds artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled solutions to business problems. We work with organisations, bringing together their data and domain expertise with our AI expertise, to develop AI solutions that are deployed in their operations. We also commercialize AI-enabled products business via industry-specific ventures, yielding scalability from our investment in the first solution. Competition for tech […]

Light Rail Transit (LRT) is a vital mode of public transportation that allows efficient movement of people and goods throughout Canada, and especially in major cities. Contrary to highway and traditional rail bridges, LRT bridge design issues have received little attention, although most of the major Canadian cities have LRT systems. Currently there exists no […]

This project aims to help the grain broker Johnston’s Grain achieve two key goals. First, it will research and develop a comprehensive strategy for expanding their export of Canadian grains and oilseeds into emerging markets in Asia and Africa. This includes analyzing market demand, trade regulations, and competitive landscapes to identify promising new countries to […]

Ultimarii is focused on accelerating the approval process for major projects by leveraging advanced large language model (LLM) technology to streamline environmental impact assessments (EIAs) and other regulatory filings. Our platform offers tools for auto-drafting, summarizing, analyzing, and predicting outcomes of regulatory applications, thereby increasing the efficiency and reducing the costs associated with project approvals. […]

This proposal represents part of a doctoral thesis aimed at developing an interface for immersive environments, allowing for geovisual analyses targeted at smart cities, using digital twins to investigate flood-related data. The proper application of interface design in this environment enables an improved understanding and perception of emerging risks, which are crucial elements in flood […]

This Mitacs Globalink Research Award will support a Ph.D. student (Freeman) on a 24-week research trip to Sweden from 30 June – 15 December. Freeman will be hosted at Linnaeus University in Kalmar, Sweden, and will travel within the region to conduct interviews that will form a major part of Freeman’s thesis research, in collaboration […]

The intern will travel to the University of Jyväskylä’s Department of Chemistry, where they will be hosted in the group of Prof. Heikki M. Tuononen. The principal investigator host is a computational chemist of international recognition, University of Calgary alumnus, and longtime collaborator of Prof. Roland Roesler, the host in University of Calgary’ Department of […]

Food & agtech innovation are important contributors to Canada’s innovation ecosystem and the productivity of Canada’s agriculture and food sectors. This project will support the development of novel business processes at an emerging Canadian venture capital firm, as well as research into early stage science and technology companies within the sector through market analysis and […]
