In our research project, we aim to address environmental contamination caused by biphenyl and biphenyl ether, common pollutants from industrial activities. These chemicals, found in products like building materials and thermal energy transfer fluids, pose risks to both ecosystems and human health. Conventional cleanup methods often fall short, requiring a more sustainable approach. Our solution […]

This project is meant to develop a Hybrid AI Platform for Streamlining Evaluation (HAIPSE) of applications assisting the partner organization, The NIB Trust Fund, in processing the two categories of funding applications. The NIB Trust Fund supports education programs of the First Nation and Métis individuals and organizations aimed at healing, reconciliation, and knowledge building. […]

TERRA FIRMA (TF), an InterAccess-led project, aims to grow relationships between arts organizations and Black, Indigenous, and Disability Justice-centred (BIDJ) communities by platforming, learning from, and supporting these communities’ techno-cultural knowledge stewardship, accessibility, and harm reduction models. The project will prototype and implement organizational tools collaboratively with these communities, sharing resources and knowledge within artistic, […]

This project will focus on transforming scientific research excellence into improved healthspan via the development of improved diagnostics to allow personalized therapeutic strategies, with novel treatment and rejuvenation approaches targeting cardiometabolic disease. Exciting preliminary data has been generated by the York University research team. The Konkuk University research team have the established expertise to capitalize […]

The proposed project aims to develop an innovative microsensor for precise monitoring of low-level salinity in drinking water. Using an ion-selective polymeric membrane, the microsensor enhances sensitivity and specificity, allowing for real-time monitoring within the crucial 1-100 ppm range. This technology addresses the current gap in low-cost, on-site salinity monitoring for drinking water. The partner […]

As pharmaceutical companies look increasingly towards biological macromolecules like antibodies as new drugs, there is a rapidly growing need to be able to characterize these complex ‘drug candidates’ in detail. Rapid Novor, an international leader in antibody sequencing and characterization services, and the Wilson group, an academic leader in the development of HDX technologies, have […]

Development of an integrated and unified GetSkinHelp Experience powered by Data & Artificial Intelligence

In Canada, ensuring clean and safe water while promoting environmental sustainability is a top priority. While wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) has been playing a crucial role in public health and environmental protection, but their operational efficiency still needs to be improved. To this end, this research project focuses on harnessing the power of data-driven modeling […]

Vaccination is an important preventive measure against influenza infection during both seasonal epidemics and pandemic outbreaks. This research aims to understand the effect of early vaccination during influenza outbreaks. The objectives are to measure the effectiveness of early vaccination in terms of reducing disease burden (e.g., infection, hospitalization). We apply an important methodology, namely mathematical […]

The Global Positioning System (GPS) has become an indispensable component of both civil and Geomatics practices. However, the GPS observations provide heights that refer to a reference ellipsoid and are not directly suitable for practical purposes. To transform GPS heights into physical (orthometric) heights referenced to an equipotential surface representing mean sea level on land, […]
