Investigation of the applications of Radiographic AI Assessment (RAIA)

Radiographic AI Assessment (RAIA) is a web-based application tailored for veterinary practices, focusing on chest radiographs. With millions of annual veterinary clinic visits in Canada, many involving radiography, RAIA addresses the need for better diagnostic quality. It offers automatic quality assessment, enhancing radiology technicians’ ability to deliver high-quality radiographs essential for accurate diagnoses.

Dynamics of single P. aeruginosa cells under shear during biofilm formation

The proposed project involves the use of a combination of two techniques i.e., rheology, confocal microscopy and image analysis, aimed at understanding the physics of bacterial cells at interfaces. Given the fact that the interactions and the interplay of forces are complicated at interfaces, the proposed study can provide significantly valuable insights into the dynamics […]

Specificity of the cAMP-PKA signalling pathway during thermotolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The proposed research project aims to investigate how Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a microorganism commonly used in the food and biofuel industry, responds to changes in temperature and manages to withstand high temperatures. Yeast cells face various types of stress as the environment conditions change, both in natural situations and during industrial processes. S. cerevisiae has developed […]

Photogrammetric speech motor control assessment

Speech sound disorders (SSDs) are an umbrella term for a range of speech difficulties characterised by a constellation of deficits. Identifying SSD subtypes can be supported by objectively analysing the child’s speech and facial movement patterns (kinematics). However, these movements can only be precisely and specifically measured using specialised instrumentation and software limited to the […]

Towards Inclusive Mobility: Designing Augmented Reality Interaction with Autonomous Vehicles for Older Adults

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) represent an emerging technology, and initially, individuals may feel less confident in autonomous driving systems without human drivers. A proper communication medium between passengers and AVs can facilitate a safe and reliable experience. Older adults are expected to be one of the largest user cohorts of AVs as they support aging in […]

Outcome and Resource Use of Patients with Primary Liver Cancer

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 […]

Development of Microneedle-Based Biosensing Systems

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 […]
