The Ubiquitous Health Technology Lab (UbiLab) will explore the development of a data integration framework and recommendation for associated standards that aims at combining data from (1) smart home systems, (2) AAL or IoT for health technology, (3) mHealth, and (4) wearables. Important areas of data management will be explored, as for example security and […]

En 2018, les entreprises doivent se protéger contre un risque opérationnel critique : le cyberrisque. L’objectif de ce projet de recherche est de développer une cote de cybersécurité, qui donne une mesure du niveau de cyberrisque global d’une entreprise en fonction de ses caractéristiques et de son programme de gestion des systèmes informatiques. La cote […]

Mutations in the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) are the most common genetic risk factor for development of Parkinson’s disease (PD). PD is characterized by the buildup of abnormal protein deposits in the brain, followed by progressive loss of neurons and behavioural symptoms. Numerous studies have noted a correlation between reduced GBA1 activity and increased levels of […]

The activity of putting on and tying one’s shoes is completed multiple times per day, and is taken for granted until an individual experiences mobility challenges due to pain, stiffness, weakness, or instability. A new foot stool, the LaceUp, is designed for users to sit or stand, and perform the activity of putting on and […]

In this project, we aim to design and develop an Intelligent mixed-reality Simulation & training ecosystem for Extreme Environments (I.SEE), which will be an innovative mixed-reality simulation ecosystem of hyper-realistic and fully immersive experience for enhanced crisis response, management, training, and data analysis. The ecosystem will be built based on a three-layer architecture: (i) On […]

There has been a noticeable interest across Canada to deploy new approaches to help address our growing energy needs. Second generation bioethanol production from agricultural and forest residues (named as lignocellulosic biomass), can pave the way for achieving this sustainable bio-economy. Regardless the efforts by ethanol producer companies to develop the technologies of generation of […]

Crop yield is increasingly important for feeding the global population and making Canada a more self-sustaining country. Active AgriScience is a BC based company that is developing novel technologies and formulati,ons for improving yield in many types of crops including canota, wheat, com, barley, and others. One of the key services that !clive AgriScience offers […]

Geostatistical techniques offer a means of mathematically approximating the spatial patterns of geological parameters. The geostatistical interpolation and simulation methods are commonly used for modeling ore bodies. The accuracy of these models has significant impacts on the reliability of mine planning and design. The proposed research project aims to apply advanced machine learning methods, geared […]

The proposed research project aims to develop a multi-modal stethoscope, containing superior digitized heart and lung sounds, telemedicine capabilities and assistive diagnostics. This is achieved by leveraging new advancements in piezo, microphone, wireless and machine learning technologies. The project will investigate these technologies and integrate them into custom made electronics and mechanical designs to achieve […]

One aspect of modern drug development involves understanding how enzymes function in terms of the progress of certain diseases in humans. This MITACS project involves the synthesis of small-molecule labels that can bind to a specific enzyme of interest, so as to better understand the mode of action of this enzyme as related to the […]

CAE Santé a besoin de fournir rapidement des simulateurs médicaux à ses clients et de concevoir des prototypes fonctionnels. L’objectif du stage est de mettre en place un outil d’aide à la décision en intégrant les procédés de fabrication additives afin qu’elle puisse diminuer ces cycles de développement de produit. L’outil permettra d’évaluer les pièces […]

This project aims to develop a dynamic financial computable general equilibrium model (CGE) with interaction between real and financial side of the world economy. It seeks to understand how monetary policy changes such as interest rate changes, QE measures, and exchange rate changes affect the real economy by applying the financial dynamic CGE model. This […]
