The space economy is developing quickly and Canada wants to play a role in the new sector of “in-orbit services”, where satellites are repaired and refueled while space debris is removed from space completely. All these activities require the servicing spacecraft to get a good look at the client spacecraft before docking. In this research, […]

The increasing wildfires threaten, indirectly, water quality by altering physicochemical properties and introducing contaminants to water bodies. This research aims to address how wildfire pollutants impact water systems, identify research gaps, and analyze data from Canada and worldwide to understand trends and mitigate impacts on water resources.

Precision medicine is showing great promise in the fight against cancer. One of the major hurdles is how to best target cancer cells for destruction while sparing normal ones because both share many of the same attributes or “targets”. However, when cancer grows, tumors create a microenvironment around them, the TME or tumor microenvironment. The […]

In collaboration with the BC Brain Injury Association (BCBIA), this research project aims to identify evidencebased strategies for recognizing and responding to overdose-induced brain injuries. By conducting a scoping review of existing literature, the project will identify best practices for screening, diagnosing, and treating hypoxic brain injuries resulting from non-fatal overdoses. The findings will help […]

This project aims to improve the uptake and provide further efficacy evidence of Bionic Power Incorporated’s Agilik lower-limb orthosis in Canada. To fulfill this goal, baseline predictors of long-term health-related quality of life associated with the Agilik’s treatment of knee flexion-extension impairment will be identified through an observational prospective cohort study, looking at real-world impacts […]

Le milieu universitaire, axé sur la haute performance, engendre une compétition intense entre les professeurs, exacerbée par des ressources limitées et une hiérarchie rigide basée sur l’ancienneté, créant des dynamiques de pouvoir complexes. Les professeurs, bien que jouissant d’une grande liberté, sont à la fois indépendants et interdépendants, rendant l’environnement académique vulnérable aux dysfonctionnements et […]

Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is a globally significant natural source of cannabinoids used in health and pharmaceutical products. However, a major challenge in hemp cultivation is the risk of cross-pollination. Hemp is wind-pollinated species that produces male and female flowers on separate plants. Primarily cultivated outdoors, hemp pollen from male crops grown for fiber or […]

Le secteur industriel est le plus grand consommateur d’énergie au Québec, représentant environ 40 % de la consommation totale d’énergie. L’amélioration de la gestion de l’énergie dans ce secteur est un objectif essentiel, tant pour le fournisseur d’énergie et les clients, compte tenu des coûts de l’énergie, des impacts environnementaux et des ressources disponibles. En […]

A resource to measure collaborative practice and generalized learning within minutes needs to be easy of use, effective and provide intrinsic motivation to engage users. This project advances the company’s commercialization opportunities by expanding entry into larger organizations and provides an additional opportunity to expand market reach. In the future, the product can be used […]

In Canada, there is still a lack of wastewater treatment systems for enormous number of remote communities and industrial sites. Therefore, a mobile and cost-effective waste treatment system is urgently desired for scattered water treatment demands. This project aims at the development of a ZrO2/sericin-membrane-enhanced integrated mobile system (IMS) for decentralized wastewater treatment with energy […]

Alentic Microscience Inc has developed a highly portable device that performs complete blood counts and other in vitro diagnostic tests based on the lensless microscopic imaging of blood and reagents. The system uses proprietary sampling techniques and unique analysis software based on advanced machine learning techniques. The software has been designed as a multistep process […]
