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

Understanding the interplay among the diverse values that provide ecological services is an important research undertaking. Objectives of the proposed research are to examine the interaction between landscape-scale wildlife and carbon values and to investigate the use of wolves as foci for ecotourism activities. Internship objectives are: 1) estimation of wolf and prey densities through […]

Our team hopes to learn more about how common problems are within the uterus of Canadian women and people who were assigned female at birth but no longer identify as women. The uterus can have many problems such as fibroids, adenomyosis, polyps, congenital anomalies, isthmoceles, and intrauterine adhesions. In general, ultrasound is the main tool […]

The proposed research involves a partnership between researchers at Queen’s University (Kingston, Ontario) and industry experts at Dynamic Structures (Burnaby, British Columbia). The primary objective of this research is to optimize the design of a rollercoaster vehicle bogie. Two goals are defined to be simultaneously achieved by the project: the minimization of both the bogie […]

Established in 1986, Native Child and Family Services of Toronto (NCFST) is a multi-service urban Aboriginal agency providing holistic, culture-based programs and services for Indigenous children and families. NCFST has now arrived at the stage where we must better reflect the holistic Indigenous worldview so that we better reflect what we are supposed to be: […]

Fishers in central British Columbia (BC) have not been thoroughly studied and there are many gaps in our understanding. This project aims to fill two important knowledge gaps that affect the reproduction and survival within the endangered Columbian population of fishers in central BC: habitat and diet. Prey, diet, and reproductive data will be compared […]

Le coaching est une activité par excellence pour les gestionnaires désireux de développer des nouvelles compétences ou savoir-être. Or, malgré ses retombées généralement très grandes, le coaching managérial gagne en popularité, mais reste encore dédié à une poignée d’élus. Or, les avancées de l’intelligence artificielle pourraient permettre de démocratiser l’accès au coaching et ainsi d’en […]

The project will accomplish the goal of transferring the academic knowledge in synthesis of tunable plasmonic nanoparticles developed at Wilfrid Laurier University to Nicoya, the company developing advanced instrumentation based on plasmonic sensing using metal nanoparticles. The developed nanoparticles will be tested, and fine-tuned, if required, to satisfy all the criteria required for their industrial […]

La detection d’objets est une tache complexe en vision par ordinateur car elle vise a la fois a etablir la localisation et la classification d’objets dans une image. Cette tache devient plus difficile lorsqu’elle est etudiee sur des images capturees par des cameras munies de lentilles « grand-angle ». Ces lentilles offrent des champs de […]

All five sturgeon species in Canada are considered at-risk. Conservation research on sturgeons often involves capturing wild sturgeon and performing procedures like tagging surgeries, so we can better understand their ecology in waters that are often impacted by human activities. In this project, we will work with our partner organisation, BC Hydro, to try to […]

The dairy cow industry is a significant contributor to emissions of the potent greenhouse gas methane because of anaerobic fermentation that occurs in every cow’s forestomach. The proposed research aims to contribute to development of dietary strategies to reduce methane emissions from dairy cows by at least 50% without affecting wellness markers and lactation performance. […]

D-Wave is at the forefront of building quantum annealers, which are quantum computing devices that can potentially solve an important class of problems more efficiently than classical computers. One important goal of D-Wave is to claim that they have attained quantum supremacy, which means they have built a machine that can do something that no […]
