To address these barriers, health promotion strategies need to employ culturally competent approaches. A focus group […]

Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of death in Canada and is a progressive disease characterized by heart dilatation and impaired heart function that can ultimately lead to heart failure, with a rising incidence and a 5-year survival rate of only 50%. Advanced cases of heart failure caused by dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) are referred for […]

Without inclusive opportunities for people to communicate their views in a deliberative way, both communities and policymakers are being held back from co-creating a desirable future for Canada, a need that the Cornerstone Indicator process is aiming to address. […]

This project involves creating a gamified Virtual Reality (VR) experience that simulates the I catheter insertion, providing users with depth perception and spatial awareness crucial for mastering the procedure. The VR application, will be developed in collaboration with Sononurse, aims to improve nurses’ fine motor skills through immersive training with gaming mechanics. The effectiveness of […]

High-purity nano alumina (HPA) has diverse applications in batteries, LED lights, semiconductors etc. In recent decades, several methods have been developed to produce highly reactive and pure alumina at nano scale. Amongst them, microwave (MW) assisted-based methods have been considered promising. The MW-assisted method can avoid the challenges of other methods by enhancing the energy […]

En 1985, la rivière Caniapiscau a été déviée pour la construction du Complexe hydroélectrique La Grande, créant ainsi le réservoir Caniapiscau.

Cependant, la quittance n’englobe […]

Enormous quantities of machine-readable data, measured in many terabytes, are readily available. The sources include the world-wide web, publicly available databases, raw experimental data, unannotated genomic sequences generated by biochemical tools, and so on. However, data does not necessarily equal useful information. More often than not, the data has to be intelligently processed, interpreted, transformed, […]

The concept of Thermonalysis came from direct interaction with restaurant owners. A clearly identified problem is the current process of recording temperature and time readings of their food products. Monitoring food temperature is a critical step in ensuring customer safety. The current process of monitoring food temperature involves staff manually taking the food temperature and […]
