This project will examine and compare two types of implantable patient leads, one which is more minimally invasive vs. one which requires a more extensive surgical procedure. Medtronic will utilize the data from this pilot study to determine the need and or value of conducting an International Multi-Centre Study. Based on the clinical outcomes from […]

Native grasslands provide important breeding habitat for many grassland birds, including species at risk. However, the quantity and quality of remaining native grassland may be threatened by increased development associated with the oil and gas industry.

In this research, we seek to address a gap in existing vocal research in Canada by expanding the science / medical model to support aesthetic creation / art making – i.e. encouraging […]

We propose to mitigate corrosion in potash mining and processing plants by introducing corrosion inhibitor to potash brine solutions. We will screen and formulate a cost-effective corrosion inhibitor that is compatible to potash mining and processing operation, but does not degrade quality of potash products and still provides high corrosion inhibition performance. The formulated corrosion […]
