This project will explore how artificial intelligence (AI) and digital marketplace data can be used to improve sales and marketing decisions for Kondor Pharma’s natural health products on platforms like Amazon. Instead of running marketing activities, the project will analyze AI tools, keyword data, product listings, pricing patterns, and customer behavior to understand what factors […]

This project will explore how eye movements can be used to improve assistive Augmented Reality (AR) devices for people with motor impairments. Many AR systems rely on head, hand, or body movements to make choices, but this is not always possible for individuals with limited mobility. However, eye movement is often preserved, making it a […]

This research project aims to enhance the treatment of common tendon injuries in horses, a prevalent issue causing economic losses in equine sports. Despite various treatments, there’s a crucial need for more effective solutions. The study focuses on comparing the impact of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) alone to a combination of MSCs and Hyaluronic Acid […]

Newborn calf health is a major challenge, with digestive disorders being one of the main causes of illness, leading to antimicrobial use in the first week of life. While colostrum provides immune factors needed to achieve passive immunity, it also contains prebiotic sugars called oligosaccharides (OS). These sugars are under researched in calves but are […]

Many athletes and patients use blood-flow-restriction (BFR) cuffs to make light-weight exercise feel like heavy training, but no one is sure why this type of exercise causes improvements similar to traditional exercise. Is it because the cuff blocks oxygen from entering the muscle, or because it traps byproducts (metabolites) that signal the muscle to grow? […]

This project aims to develop innovative and effective photodynamic inactivation (PDI) formulations as environmentally friendly biopesticides for managing plant diseases in vegetables, fruits, and ornamental crops grown in field and greenhouse settings. By addressing key challenges such as phytotoxicity and optimizing efficacy, the project is expected to create new agrochemical solutions that expand Nutrien’s product […]

The emission of methane, which has the ability to trap heat 25 times more than carbon dioxide, is lost during dairy manure processing and storage in lagoons before land application. The proposed research shall evaluate for the first time three new methods of reducing these emissions. The methods that shall be investigated include a novel […]

The aim of this project is to determine which families are resistant to bacterial kidney disease, a bacterial infection that affects both wild and farmed Atlantic salmon. To do this many families of Atlantic salmon from a commercial aquaculture company are to be purposefully infected with the bacteria that causes the disease to establish which […]

Information published by financial news agencies is used as one of the inputs to make investment decisions. News articles from multiple sources can be used to gauge market sentiment towards an industry or a specific company. Deep learning techniques have been successful in producing state of the art results on various benchmark datasets (Dai & […]

Feather pecking (FP) in egg-laying hens, where individuals peck repetitively and excessively at other birds to pull out and eat their feathers, is a challenge for the industry with large economic and welfare implications. High prevalence of FP is reported (60-80%) and this is associated with mortality rates of up to 20-40%, which translates to […]

Feather pecking (FP) in egg-laying hens, where individuals peck at other birds to pull out and eat their feathers, is a challenge for the sector with large economic and welfare implications. It is especially of concern in systems where birds are housed in large social groups as it is harder to control. With new policies […]
