Medical imaging is vital to modern healthcare, yet high costs and limited access slow patients’ paths to diagnosis. Radiologists often correlate imaging findings across multiple imaging modalities and sequences to arrive at a specific diagnosis, but each extra scan or sequence increases scanner time, healthcare costs, wait-list pressure, radiation for ionizing exams, and energy use. […]

The project is part of the PhD research conducted by Madeline Berezowski. It is also part of a multifaceted research program developed collaboratively by Dr. Sowa and Dr. Fransson. It revolves around the idea of developing custom mathematical methods in support of frontier quantum physics research. Our specific target is an analysis of systems of […]

Governments around the world are making considerable efforts to promote renewable energy generation in electric power systems, and to promote technologies such as electric vehicles to replace fossil energy by green electric energy in order to combat the adverse societal impacts of global warming. However, the rising uncertainties in power generation from renewable resources and […]

SkillShark Software is a SaaS model company leading the industry in making youth athlete evaluations easy. Current sport organizations do evaluations on pen and paper and spend countless hours re-entering the data onto a spreadsheet and are even then unable to provide report cards to athletes and parents. SkillShark has signed contracts with the largest […]

A key challenge in corporate law is the efficient indexing and retrieval of legal documents. This project focuses on enhancing the accuracy of AI-driven legal document processing, making it easier for law firms to manage client records. With improved document indexing and data extraction, legal professionals will have better access to structured, reliable legal information. […]

The proposed research focuses on the development of biocarbon materials from waste spent clay and soapstocks from vegetable oil processing. The biocarbon will be used as the filler in developing rubber composite material as a potential substitution for carbon black produced from petroleum sources. The intern will work with the team of graduate students and […]

The objective of a fusion device is to confine a plasma and heat it to a temperative high enough for its ions to gain sufficient energy to overcome their mutually repulsive force and fuse. Fusion neutrons will provide a heat souce that’s used to generate electricity in a steam cycle. Fusion power is environmentally friendly […]

Dental caries can increase in severity if left untreated and result in deep carious lesions. Repairing these deep carious lesions routinely involves pulp capping, a procedure during which the tooth pulp can be accidentally exposed, allowing bacteria to enter the pulp and cause infection. Pulp capping failure rates are high, and retreatment may involve root […]

The Saskatoon Soccer Centre has formed a committee called the “SK Soccer Legacy Project.” The committee exists to create a living, breathing, organic preservation of the history of Saskatoon soccer of past, present and future generations. The Saskatoon Soccer Centre Inc. is partnering with the University of Saskatchewan History Department’s CoLab – Centre for Community-Engaged […]

One-third of the world’s demand for potash is being supplied by Saskatchewan. The potash mining industry is thus a core element driving rapid economic development in the province. However, potash mining operations generate a substantial volume of highly saline mine wastewater. There are strong demands for mitigating the salinity of potash mine water in Saskatchewan. […]

The principal objective of this proposal is to discover novel drugs to treat colon cancers. Currently colon cancer is a huge medical problem and there are many disadvantages to current drug therapies. These disadvantages include their ineffectiveness to completely eradicate cancers, causing toxic side effects and the development of multidrug resistance. A group of compounds […]

Feminization of agriculture is occurring in China through the rural-urban migration of labor, predominantly men. This phenomenon raises the question: Does women’s increasing participation in farming affect their capacity and power in decision-making regarding agricultural production and their rural livelihood? While little research has been done to address this issue due to the measurement challenges, […]
