Embedded in the surface of a virus, are different types of proteins that the virus uses to enter a host cell. These so-called viral glycoproteins are pivotal targets of the host antibody response to fight a viral infection. In recent decades, it has become clear that certain viral glycoproteins have evolved clever ways to suppress […]

Brain segmentation is crucial for providing accurate predictions to the patients due to the information which can be extracted from it, such as the shape and size of the tissue, underdeveloped or injured regions, and annual comparative results for brain growth. Segmentation of infants’ brains currently requires deep expertise and is a labor-intensive process, typically […]

There is a strong connection between hearing loss and cognitive impairment, particularly dementia, in old age. The number of Canadians with dementia is expected to reach 9% of adults over the age of 60 by 2038. With these large numbers and limited health resources, caregiving will increasingly fall upon family and friends. Caregiving for persons […]

Our proposed research is to create an algorithm capable of pre-evaluating diabetes patients’ meals before they consume them with the snap of a picture. We are attempting to accomplish this goal by employing AI, machine learning as well as computer vision for real-time analysis. Our goal is to analyse a user’s meal to return an […]

Till this time the data of patients in clinics are not saved in a way comfortable for further research especially if it is some specific disease, which has not been studied enough yet, it is hard for a doctor to collect all the data correctly to see the whole picture of the patient’s health. The […]

Governments around the world are investing to bridge the “digital divide,” which refers to the gap among populations in terms of ability to access digital tools and the Internet. This effort is especially evident in public schools, because education has been identified as one contributing factor of the divide. Thus, it is of great public […]

Issues involving the introduction, learning and embracing of new knowledge, innovation or practice change in healthcare are critical as the innovation impacts the quality of service and care of patients. Long-term care (LTC) is a sector that has historically faced its own unique challenges in moving research knowledge into practice. The proposed project codeveloped with […]

The causal link between highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUF As) and human health is one of the hottest topics in science. Their potential to control food web dynamics in freshwater systems is a relatively recent development, but analytical difficulties have relegated research to a predominantly theoretical nature. A large deal of theoretical work was produced […]

Sleep apnea is a common respiratory disorder among heart failure (HF) patients where it increases the mortality risk. Therefore, it is important to develop new treatments for sleep apnea. We have proposed that fluid which is accumulated in the legs during day moves towards the head when lying down to sleep and accumulates in the […]

The big problem in healthcare Is that that about 80% of medical data remains unstructured and untapped after it is created. It’s hard to handle this type of data for Electronic Medical Record (EPIC), it tends to be ignored, unsaved or abandoned, and therefore is not effectively used in medical treatment or research. It’s highly […]

The search for music for a video is time-intensive. Video creators and bloggers listen to hundreds of tracks in music libraries, yet barely find the perfect one because of the difficulty of communicating their vision to the computer. Thus, the question we address in this research project is on the role of the modality, in […]

The “Improving Access to Detached Additional Dwelling Unit Data” project will help ensure the successful scaling of the ADUSearch.ca tool, an online interactive mapping tool that allows users to determine the physical feasibility of building a detached ADU in compliance with the local zoning bylaws on both a lot-by-lot basis and at an aggregated geographic […]
