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., […]

Project 1 Circle Cardiovascular Imaging is a software medical device Manufacturer based in Calgary Alberta, Canada. Circle Cardiovascular imaging creates multiple products for the analysis of patient images for assisting the diagnosis of cardiac and neurological diseases. cvi42 Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance/Computed Tomography Imaging Software Application (referred to as cvi42) is a software as a medical […]

Geothermal energy, unlike other renewable sources, is available at all hours of the day, and can provide industry with a continuous supply of energy. However, one of the barriers to widespread geothermal use and the replacement of natural gas as energy sources in industry, is how to incorporate geothermal energy into the industrial system without […]

Development of a user-friendly protocol for soil conservation and management on construction sites in the Bow Valley (Canmore, Banff and Bighorn). The protocol could be a reference for other provinces; the proposed practices could fit different types of actors in the construction industry, and the soil could be used for other valuable purposes.

A new artificial intelligence based markerless motion capture technology could improve care children with difficulty walking. Marker-based gait assessments are often used to help make decisions about treatments. We will explore if this new markerless approach works in kids and specifically if it works in kids with difficulty walking. We will determine if this approach […]
