The study team has developed a software program called SHARP-VT that doctors can use to quickly plan non-invasive treatments of irregular heart-beats using external-beam radiation therapy. In this study the candidate will conduct a detailed review of the commercialization potential for this software program in the North American and European Union markets. This review will […]

In Brazil, malaria accounts for the highest morbidity registered in the Americas. In this country, 99.5% of the cases of malaria are registered in the Brazilian Amazon. The main goal of this research is to investigate how riberinhos experience and act upon malaria in endemic areas of Manaus and Careiro, State of Amazonas, Brazil. This […]

Background: Obesity is a common chronic disease -particularly in Western nations- that is frequently linked with the presence of other illnesses and earlier death. Typical obesity management strategies might include medication, such as the drug Contrave, which has been approved for weight loss in Canada. While Contrave reduces appetite and food cravings in most people […]

This project would seek to develop an integrated system incorporating a reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reactor to convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen into carbon monoxide and water, aiming for maximum production of carbon monoxide. RWGS is an endothermic, catalytic, equilibrium-limited reaction, so the project team will seek to develop efficient, novel catalysts and supports, […]

This project aims to strengthen RabbitRun Technologies’ (RRT) cybersecurity capabilities in software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) solutions for small office/home office (SOHO) environments. It addresses the critical need for secure and reliable connectivity in remote and small business settings by integrating federated learning into RRT’s systems. This approach enables RRT routers to collaboratively improve intrusion […]

Magnetic fields are usually created in metal conductors, often organized in a single rotation loop. The field is calculated using the Biot-Savart law while the time-response is limited by inductance. SLAC, has recently been used to minimize inductance by employing the magnetic field around a relativistic electron beam. The field can peak at several Tesla, […]

A quantum proof of knowledge (QPoK) is a protocol in quantum computing that allows one party (the prover) to convince another party (the verifier) that they possess certain knowledge without revealing the knowledge itself. Our research proposal aims to advance the science of QPoKs by developing both theoretical foundations and practical applications. We will explore […]

This project aims to contrast three differing expressions of nostalgia regarding the loss of traditional forms of life in Japan present in three Japanese cultural figures: the novelist Kazuo Ishiguro, the filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki, and the novelist Yukio Mishima. A significant amount of academic literature has already been published on the theme of nostalgia in […]

This project will focus on the optical detection of free carriers in 2D materials. The insights gained will enable the extraction of carrier numbers from the absorption and emission spectra of 2D crystals subjected to high magnetic fields. Understanding the optical responses of low-dimensional, many-body systems is crucial for advancing future optoelectronic devices in quantum […]

Le projet de recherche se propose d’analyser les éléments qui constituent l’attractivité de l’Union européenne à l’international et surtout dans les États post-soviétiques que sont l’Ukraine, la Moldavie et la Géorgie. Il permettra de comprendre quels sont les acteurs qui influencent le plus l’Union européenne et la façonnent au quotidien. Il permettra d’évaluer les limites […]

The project focuses on developing machine learning (ML) techniques to improve quantum tomography and control, specifically addressing scalability issues in large quantum systems. By collaborating with experts in photonics and quantum machine learning from both the University of Ottawa and the University of Rostock, the project aims to create more efficient quantum state reconstruction methods, […]

Zamancwane Mahlanza is a PhD student at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa under Professor Oluwafemi Adebo’s main supervision. Zamancwane’s research focuses on the development of conventional nutritious instant and 3D food products from traditional and novel processed foods (finger millet, edible insects and wild edible plants).
