The Hope on the Horizon Tour is set to launch in the spring of 2023, and events/work focused on the True Sport initiative are continuing. Thus, the internship focuses on understanding and evaluating the depth of the knowledge transfer taking place throughout these initiatives – especially the Hope on the Horizon Tour. This research aims […]

Few studies have investigated how rest period impact behavioral, metabolic, and clinical indicators of health and welfare of surplus dairy calves during long distance transportation. This project aims to fill these knowledge gaps and determine if unloading calves from the trailer for a rest period will mitigate the impact of transport. Results from this study […]

This collaborative project will be undertaken by researchers at the University of Guelph and Bremen. The primary objective of this project will be to determine whether a multi-sensor wearable is more accurate at predicting energy expenditure amongst preschoolers. Data from Canadian (n=40; 3-5 years of age) and German children (n=40; 3-5 years of age) will […]

The profitability of dairy production is based on the ability of the animal to have high milk production, good health and good fertility. A major challenge for dairy producers is to select for high performing animals and avoid the undesirable correlated response between production and other traits. The proposed research includes the imputation of newly […]

Pelvic floor disorders (PFD) affect up to 50% of the female population and include stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP). The non-surgical treatment for POP and SUI is pessaries, which are intravaginal devices, fitted through trial-and-error. While pessaries are an effective treatment option, many patients will have to try multiple pessaries before […]

It is essential that additional carbon removal capacity and strategies are developed in the near term to facilitate Canada’s national climate goals. In addition, farmers are seeking sustainable methods of crop production that support soil health. Agromineral waste refers to materials generated from mineral processing activities that possess agronomic value in terms of potential benefits […]

This project applies Canadian biotechnology solutions in the areas of genomic and molecular biology to provide improvements in the agricultural sector, in particular in the production of coffee crops. As a result of climate and environmental changes, coffee production has affected coffee crop production in many agricultural locations in emerging nations such as in one […]

Within the scope of this project, a Lab Technician/Research Analyst […]

Canada is a world leader in both cutting-edge, DNA-based environmental research and in the abundance and variety of our natural resources. By bringing the transformative power of the “Biomonitoring 2.0” approach for use in the environmental consulting industry, I propose to take the best of the former and use it to create innovative methods for […]

This research aims to create a platform that can predict the impacts of cyberattacks on various financial assets, such as bonds, stocks, and a company’s credit risk. The focus is on the impacts of cyberattacks on the prices of financial assets listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE). Still, the prediction models and tools developed […]

1000s of Ontarians engage with their local government every year through Advisory Committees of Council (ACOCs). The committees address a wide range of topics, including accessibility, transit, heritage, and the arts. Residents often serve on these committees for a more than a year. The goal of this research is to develop a framework to support […]
