This research project is investigating the management practices to improve nutrient management in spring wheat production using enhanced efficiency fertilizers and biochar in Nova Scotia. Extreme weather and high precipitation rates have caused leaching and nitrogen losses in soils that have severely impacted yields across the region. Nutrients from conventional fertilizers can be rapidly leached […]

C-FER Technologies, specializing in advanced engineering solutions, primarily focuses on addressing industry challenges through rigorous testing and research in harsh operational environments. This project specifically engages C-FER’s expertise in high-pressure hydrogen testing and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) to tackle the pressing issue of hydrogen embrittlement in pipeline steels. By simulating extreme conditions, the partnership aims […]

There is a large stock of construction materials in existing built facilities, which when reaching their end of life, become a liability for their owners. The current practices of demolishing and disposing of these facilities when reaching their end-of-life generate considerable amounts of wastage and collectively can lead to landfill overuse; hence are not compliant […]

Cloth animation is essential in video games, but creating realistic cloth movements in real-time is challenging due to computing limitations. Traditional methods use simplified simulations combined with keyframing to manage performance and control, but these can be unstable and offer limited animator flexibility. Our project proposes a solution using neural networks to animate garments. By […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE IS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

Medella Health is developing contact lenses that continuously detect blood glucose levels to better manage diabetes and improve the quality of life for diabetic patients. Patients have a difficult time monitoring and maintaining their blood glucose levels because current systems are invasive, discontinuous and do not generate the continuous feedback necessary for patients to take […]

This project presents a novel software-centric architecture for enhancing network management and traffic processing in satellite communication networks. The architecture features a standardized communication framework enabling seamless interaction between a software-based Network Management System, traffic applications, and a new high-speed hardware processing module. This module, designed with a hybrid FPGA/CPU approach, provides high-performance modulation and […]

When people become critically ill, such as during severe infection, their lungs often fail – this is termed “Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome” (ARDS). ARDS is common, and often fatal. There is no drug therapy for ARDS and new therapies are urgently required. Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) from bone marrow offer significant hope for ARDS, and […]

This research will focus on the experiences of 2SLGBTQ+ community members in Perth-Huron with specific attention to discrimination, access and use of services, and community integration. The research will support service providers to effectively target their efforts to the needs of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, to create a better sense of belonging and reduced discrimination for […]

The Healthy Aging Cohort pilot study, aims to explore the relationship between medical fitness facility attendance and health outcomes as people age. This study will gather comprehensive data on health and lifestyle factors and the goal is to develop one of the largest studies on healthy aging, highlighting the potential benefits of medical fitness facilities […]

Le coach de bien-être financier de Kaira, qui prend la forme d’une application mobile, comprend le comportement et le profil financier de son utilisateur, grâce à une connexion à ses comptes bancaires, découvre et approfondit la connaissance de son profil psychologique et de son attitude face à l’argent. La technologie Kaira permet aux entreprises d’offrir […]

Le projet consiste à faire une analyse du parcours de remboursement et de l’inscription des drogues thérapeutiques sur le marché canadien. Les activités principales de ce projet seraient d’identifier le raisonnement clinique et pharmacoéconomique derrière les recommandations positives et négatives des différentes agences d’évaluation des technologies de la santé (CADTH et INESSS), de déterminer le […]
