Big data analytics has emerged, in the past few years, as a subject of great fascination and intrigue. It has become a vital factor in the decision making process for leaders of various sectors, from government bodies to corporate executives to scientists and researchers. It has gained considerable attention recently due to the exponential growth […]

Project StrokeSENS The software features proposed for StrokeSENS 2.x, which is under development from September 2023 and planned for release in early 2024, with subsequent release in the second half of 2024 are: • StrokeSENS Platform (Q1 2024) o Functionality related to transfer of medical image data and image analysis results • StrokeSENS LVO (Q1 […]

Primary liver cancer (PLC) is one of the fastest growing cancer in Canada and is a heavy global burden. To efficiently allocate the health care resource to the patients with PLC, outcome and cost analysis of the patients with PLC may be a right direction. In order to obtain enough information to accurately assess the […]

Microneedles are small sub-millimeter projections that allow for pain free access to the dermal layers of the skin. This allows for enhanced drug delivery and biosensing capabilities that are much more accessible and comfortable for the patient. This work aims to improve the capabilities of a solid metal microneedle system designed for use in electrical […]

Community Integration is a key indicator of long-term stability and well-being. However, few people with experiences of homelessness experience belonging within a community. This research project aims to discover the reasons for this disconnection through facilitated focus groups with individuals with lived experience and offer new opportunities for exploring new ways of achieving community integration. […]

Recent studies have shown that the gut microbiome works as an organ of the human body which produces bioactive molecules and metabolites. Since the gut microbiome is in close interaction with the human internal environment and changes in the compositions of gut microbiota can impact host physiology through many pathways. Precise determination of gut microbiota […]

Buried pipeline systems form a key part of effective and safe infrastructures for the transportation of natural resources such as natural gas and liquid. However, they may be constructed in areas prone to landslides where ground movement may exert excessive strains on the pipe sections causing rupture. This project develops and presents a methodology for […]

This project seeks to enhance the impact of leadership training and development by evaluating the effectiveness of a digital program tailored for early-career leaders. Despite the vital role of leadership training, its success often remains uncertain. This research program, spanning two years, aims to bridge this gap by conducting three studies. Study 1 will validate […]

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

FluidPlanet.org produces and publishes digital twins (virtual versions of real places) for academic, educational and enterprise use. By combining the latest technologies in mapping (GIS), sensors (IoT) and visualization (gaming), we create realistic looking and behaving simulations of real locations. These can then be populated with virtual people, animals and buildings to tell stories that […]

The gut microbiota comprises all bacteria inhabiting the intestines and has been shown to play a significant role in both health and disease. Although previously overlooked, new research shows that both the gut microbiota and their metabolites may influence exercise performance. Probiotic supplementation has been shown to have a small but significant positive effect on […]

Tissue-resident fibroblasts and their attendant activities are central drivers of a diverse range of diseases. The overarching theme of this proposal is to develop novel fibroblast reporter lines that will enable us to identify tractable therapeutic targets to modify fibroblast activity. To identify such targets, we are proposing to carry out high throughput screens (i.e., […]
