The project will develop and validate a reagent-free UV-Vis absorption-based sensor for the direct, real-time quantification of nitrogen in agricultural watersheds. AUG’s machine learning-based multiple regression models will also be developed to process the real-time UV-Vis absorption spectral data and enhance sensor performance suitable for continuous field operation. This project will lead to an innovative […]

PharmAla have been focusing on developing MDMA (ecstasy) like drug compounds. MDMA assisted psychotherapy for treatment of PTSD received Breakthrough Therapy designation in August 2017. It is currently being evaluated in Phase 3 clinical trials. The toxicological biochemical mechanism of MDMA and MDMA like compounds should be better understood. Because of this gap an extensive […]

With the advent of e-commerce and logistics industry, numerous goods are delivered every day. Sorting systems play a pivotal role in orders delivery practices. Advanced sorting systems are required nowadays because e-commerce retailers are usually confronted with different orders, each consisting of various items. Integrated sorting systems typically consist of a mix of conveyors tied […]

Neutron beams are versatile and irreplaceable 21st century research tools. Following the closure of the National Universal Research (NRU) reaction in 2018, Canadian researchers and industry lost key neutron beam capabilities for industrial Research and Development and fundamental research alike. The proposed project is a effort to rebuild neutron beam capabilities in Canada. The design […]

This Mitacs project will create a custom-built survey tool and a recommendation system that generates alerts where an individual’s unmet physical, mental, social or spiritual needs are detected. A personal report with feedback on possible steps to reduce unmet needs or make progress on achieving goals that are aligned with personal preferences and interests is […]

The project shall improve the status reporting and process compliant working within automotive embedded projects by connecting and automating existing tools, procedures and solutions.

This project focuses on the visible minorities with higher education or work skills (e.g., international graduates or skilled workers immigrants) and investigates the barriers for these immigrants to find a job at their level of skill and education. More specifically, this research seeks to understand how much racialized culture plays a part in recruiting diverse […]

Cannabinoids, especially cannabidiol show promise as medicinal agents and are often now proscribed for a variety of indications. One of the major challenges is the lack of a standard dose, and safe ways to ingest. Smoking dried plant material causes harmful particles to enter the lungs, while homemade “edibles” can both vary in their potency […]

This project, in partnership with Cascades, will develop novel functional materials prepared from a biopolymer generated at Cascades. The development of these novel materials and composites will help to fine-tune the properties of the final paper sheet produced at Cascades and access high performance materials for many of their core business activities. The new polymer […]

This Mitacs project is a demonstration project through which four small residential homes will be printed in the Windsor-Essex region. This project will be the first construction project in Canada where 3D printing technologies will be used to build residential homes. These homes will be built by Habitat for Humanity Windsor-Essex for low-income families and […]

Ford is applying Industry 4.0 smart manufacturing technologies in its re-tooled and new plants in Canada. This project aims to research, in cooperation with Ford, intelligent methods for recognizing patterns of machines faults and their causes and develop recovery strategies based on artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) using data analytics, neural networks, and […]

Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) can be vulnerable to various attacks at different levels. The malicious attacks not only result in loss of confidentiality and user privacy, but also lead to more serious consequences such as bodily injury and loss of life. Intrusion detection system (IDS) is an effective way to detect different threats, and […]
