Le projet Art-IA, mené par la Société des Arts et Technologies (SAT), MUTEK, Sporobole et le Metacreation Lab, explore les imaginaires liés à l’intelligence artificielle (IA) dans la création numérique. L’objectif est de créer une plateforme d’échange entre différents projets artistiques numériques pour répondre aux besoins des créateurs et ouvrir de nouvelles pistes de recherche […]

This project aims to improve how lake ice is monitored in Canada by combining images from optical and RADARSAT-2 satellites with advanced data analysis techniques. Monitoring lake ice is important because it reflects climate changes, which affect both local and global environments. The partner company, ApoSys, specializes in using satellite technology for environmental monitoring, but […]

This research estimates the employment impacts of a new mine proposed for northern Saskatchewan. We estimate the direct, indirect, and induced employment effects of the proposed mine. Using publically available data, the research shows how a direct investment in a mine creates jobs all along its supply chain. This indirect employment is expected to be […]

Ce projet, réalisé en partenariat avec le Centre d’amitié autochtone de Baie-Comeau (CAAM), vise à permettre à de jeunes autochtones de s’exprimer à travers des activités artistiques et de se réapproprier les espaces urbains de Baie-Comeau. Par le biais d’ateliers artistiques et d’une exposition, les jeunes pourront partager leurs expériences et leurs histoires, renforçant ainsi […]

TechBA Vancouver is evolving from exclusively operating as an organization delivering programs run by the US-Mexico Foundation for Science (FUMEC) and supported by Mexico’s Secretary of Economy, to an innovation-focused solution generator. This encompasses accelerating and incubating services for businesses. Along with TechBA`s other eight locations in highly technologically competitive environments, its objective is to […]

Alethia Biotherapeutics is developing sotevtamab, a recombinant antibody targeting clusterin, a protein often elevated in advanced solid tumors. Sotevtamab works by inhibiting epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which contributes to cancer spread, chemotherapy resistance, and immune evasion. The drug is being tested for various cancers, including lung and colorectal cancer, with the aim of enhancing chemotherapy efficacy […]

The overarching aim of the study, of which the proposed MITACS funded work is part, is to determine if heritage designation impacts properties and to better understand some people’s support and other peoples resistance to designation. One aspect in particular concerns a building’s time-on-the-market (TOM). Although there have been studies on designation, there is a […]

Growing energy demand in buildings has driven research towards efficient techniques and sustainable sources. Double-skin façades reduce energy consumption, improve thermal comfort, and enable bioenergy generation via microalgae photobioreactors. While recent research has focused on optimizing thermal and bioenergy generation from such systems, it often neglects the impact of heat gain by the occupied space […]

Aspire Food Group is the largest commercial cricket rearing facility in the world and has recently encountered a significant presence of mites in their facility. The main objectives of this research will utilize the taxonomic and biocontrol expertise to: 1) identify the mite species present in the Aspire facilities, 2) make recommendations based on identifications […]

Historical survey images of mountains, glaciers, vegetation, and river features captured during the 1906 Alaska Border Survey will be repeated on the Alsek River by PhD student Christopher Rhodes. The sites of the original images will be accessed by river rafting during expeditions with Canadian River Expeditions down the Alsek River. The goal is to […]

Comminution is the most energy intensive process in mining operations, which represents a major operating cost and contributes the carbon footprint of mining activities. In recent years, high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) and high speed stirred mills technologies have been attractive due to their energy efficiency comparing to conventional tumbling mills (including autogenous/semi-autogenous grinding mills […]

The Skeena River near Prince Rupert is home to five species of salmon, steelhead and many other aquatic species, and draws diverse interests which include: federal and provincial governments, First Nations, commercial and recreational fishers, non-governmental environmental organizations, small businesses, and the public. Parties with diverse ecological, economic and cultural interests such as these present […]
