Moving towards a shared understanding of responsibility for the land among community-based food initiatives across Waterloo-Wellington region

This research project will engage 10-20 participants from community-based food initiatives across Waterloo-Wellington region to explore how groups access land to grow food. Access to land within urban environments is important for urban Indigenous peoples whose relationships with land have been disrupted by colonization. Indigenous Peoples honour relationships and responsibilities to land, which stands in […]

Quantum networks – distributing entanglement between remote integrated photonic circuits

Quantum networks will enhance the security of communication and link quantum computers together to solve certain problems that are not possible with present day computers. To realize practical applications with a quantum advantage, thousands of photons must be controlled, and entanglement utilized to distribute quantum bits across the network. In this project, we will develop […]

Characterizing and Optimizing Bondline Reactions during Electric Resistance Welding of Advanced High Strength Steels

To improve passenger safety and vehicle fuel economy, automotive companies are increasing their use of both advanced high strength steels (AHSS) and hydroformed tubular construction. However, successful use of new AHSS tubular designs require successful electric resistance welding (ERW) of these grades. The high alloy content of new AHSS leads to bondline decarburization and the […]

Implementation of the online Language Use Inventory (LUI) for developmental surveillance of children’s early language development by family physicians.

In Canada. guidelines call for the identification of language impairment in children before 3 years of age to enable early intervention. A family doctor is often the first person with whom a family raises such a concern. The proposed research uses the Language Use Inventory (LUI), an empirically-validated standardized 20 minute questionnaire assessing 2- and […]
