As much of the performing arts activity has moved to the virtual space over the past eighteen months, an effective online presence, as well as an efficient way to reach potential audiences has become essential for arts organizations everywhere. Information that can be machine processed effectively is key to a successful online presence. However, existing […]

MLSE LaunchPad is a sport for development (SFD) organization in Moss Park, Toronto that uses sport and physical activity to build healthy communities. A trauma- and violence- informed approach is a treatment practice used to provide safe and inclusive spaces for traumatized youth, however, it is rarely incorporated in SFD programs. In collaboration with MLSE […]

A hybrid computational framework for short-term flood prediction in urban watersheds (characterized by overland runoff) will be developed to improve prediction accuracy. The framework aims to accurately predict an event, e.g. flood or no-flood, as opposed to traditional methods which estimate water flow characteristics, e.g. 6 feet above flood stage. Successful early prediction of these […]

The Bike Brigade serves vulnerable communities by signing up volunteer cyclists to deliver food and other resources to individuals in need. In collaboration with The Bike Brigade, this project is meant to highlight the experiences of QT and BIPOC volunteer bicyclists, in order to increase The Bike Brigade’s capacity and inform their anti-oppression and equity […]

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have arisen as a popular and attractive method to handle digital assets, including but not limited to digital art, certificates, audio and video files. Based on Blockchain technology, the concept of NFT can guarantee the ownership of a digital asset, the secure transfer of said ownership and the integrity and immutability of […]

In this project, we will explore the new ways to design and implement a Low-Code Software Development platform that is easy to use, requires minimum software knowledge, is business logic oriented, and robust to dependency change. Specifically, we provide functional templates with detailed configuration flexibility to cover the high frequency requirements from the expected business […]

York University and Jazz Pharmaceuticals are undertaking a project to accelerate development of their Leukemia drug candidate. The project will take advantage of unique technologies developed at York by Drs. Wilson and Krylov, Millisecond Hydrogen Deuterium eXchange (msHDX) mass spectrometry and Kinetic Capillary Electrophoresis (KCE), to provide a high-detail picture of Jazz Pharmaceutical’s candidate, including […]

Evaluate and understand the effect of operational factors on conventional and S2EBPR systems by water quality monitoring, carbon, phosphorus and nitrogen mass balance, metabolic activity and kinetic tests and microbial ecology analysis ? Design and optimization of an S2EBPR system […]

Space missions are very costly, limited and often short-lived. The capabilities and value of a space mission depends on the energy and power available on a space craft. For many space missions it is not possible to bring an energy source that can supply the required power throughout the entire duration of the mission. Furthermore, […]
