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

This project is to build an IOS mobile application that will allow partner’s clients to use it on their mobile device to access their farm data and receive ongoing recommendations from consultants. The project will benefit the partner organization by improving the communication between consultants and their client farmers. Currently, consultants print out their recommendations […]

The North Coast of British Columbia is a site of increasing industrial development, whose impacts pose an increasing threat to the health and well-being of Gitga’at people and their Territory. Though there are numerous monitoring programs to assess these impacts, Gitga’at have raised concerns about certain activities, such as tourism and recreational fishing, are currently […]

System transformation efforts that optimize access to the right care at the right time with a goal to reduce wait times in mental health services could make a difference to the lives of all Canadians. In response to the impending crisis of access barriers to mental health care, this project will evaluate the implementation of […]

Our goals are to evaluate the effectiveness of research funding in the Canadian agri-food sector, through the lens of research outcomes and alignment with government priorities, and to benchmark the benefits of the government funding programs internationally. After building a comprehensive database of available funding across Canada, we will mobilize analytical tools to qualify and […]

Our project focuses on developing a new device to create nanosized particles called lipid-based nanoparticles (LBNs) that can carry substances like genes, drugs, and proteins. LBNs have been successful in COVID vaccines and cancer treatments, but developing these therapies is challenging and requires specialized knowledge and equipment. To address this, we aim to create a […]

Manufacturing of consistently high quality products is the commitment of pharmaceutical industry. To achieve this, new products must be thoroughly tested and the results meet government-approved product specifications. Improving existing and adopting improved analytical technologies for product testing ensure the production of safe and effective products. This is particularly critical for the manufacturing of biologic […]

This research project aims to enhance the feeling of touch in artificial limbs and robots through a cutting-edge solution called biomimetic electronic skin. Existing touch technologies are limited, and this study is set out to make them feel more lifelike for amputees and more capable for robotic systems. We are developing an efficient electronic system […]

As the SARS-CoV-2 virus mutates over time and variants emerge, it is crucial to stay ahead to keep the public safe. This research aims at capturing new variants that emerge and test them against the current therapies and vaccines in place as well as develop the next generation of vaccines and therapeutics to keep the […]

Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard for evaluating bio-medical interventions. Their results can have important impacts on clinical practice and the development of scientific knowledge. Often recruitment of trial participants is one of the most challenging aspects of successfully conducting a trial. If participants are appreciated, and involved in the communication of […]

The proposed research project is intended to develop a software solution (middleware) that will work in conjunction with a remote communication device (i.e. ability to communicate via satellite and/or cellular networks) to greatly reduce the cost and complexity of monitoring in-field sensors including wireless sensors and critical industrial equipment from a centrally located office environment. […]

Lung cancer is a significant health concern worldwide, and a common type called non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is responsible for many cases. Surgery is the preferred treatment for early-stage NSCLC, but it can lead to complications after the operation, affecting patient recovery. In addition, inflammation before surgery has been linked to worse outcomes in […]
