Brain activity can be recorded by an electroencephalogram (EEG). When investigating the data, it is notoriously difficult to extract neural dynamics related directly to e.g., a visual stimulus in an experiment, from the ‘background’ brain activity. A similar problem arises in fluid dynamics, when ordered dynamics, so-called coherent structures, are extracted from measurement data. There, […]

In most flows around a structure or object, the flow behind the object is characterized by a region of unsteady reverse flow. This unsteady fluid motion in the object wake induces a force upon the object or structure, which can cause flexible structures to vibrate. An ongoing engineering challenge is to understand how the wake […]

The proposed research will involve studying the carbon footprint (i.e. the carbon emissions) involved in the preparation of magnesium oxychloride (MOC) cement materials. MOC cement has been proposed as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditionally used Portland cement (PC), however many discrepancies arise as there is no work directly comparing their carbon footprints. In […]

Access to digital technologies and ensuring digital equity has never been crucial before the pandemic. Digital equity is ‘a condition in which all individuals and communities have the information technology capacity needed for full participation in our society, democracy, and economy.’ Digital Equity is necessary for civic and cultural participation, employment, lifelong learning, and access […]

The issue of removal of CO2 from diluted streams is challenging due its low concentration which makes the cost of capture significantly high. The development of material that has high CO2 capacity at low concentrations can help to decrease the overall cost of CO2 capture. The novel approach in the design of solid sorbents proposed […]

As we approach the beginning of our clinical trials, we see this as excellent […]

The objective of this research is to examine factors that promote job seekers’ engagement and success in their job search. Logistical characteristics of work (e.g., geographical location, hours, salary) are important, but a multitude of other psychological work factors (e.g., individual differences in work values, preferred job characteristics, personality) can influence a job seeker’s intent […]

Immunoglobulin (Ig) is a blood product that is used for people who either lack IgG antibodies or require immunomodulatory therapy for life-threatening autoimmune conditions. The use of Ig products continues to increase each year, at an average rate of 8%. The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced additional stress on the Ig supply due to a reduction […]
