La société moderne présente de nombreux enjeux, mais deux seront attaqués par ce projet : une production alimentaire respectueuse de l’environnement et le réchauffement de la Terre par les gaz à effet de serre. L’utilisation d’engrais biologiques s’avère manifestement préférable aux engrais chimiques. Il est proposé que l’apatite (un minéral de phosphate et de calcium […]

While more than 50% of Canadians are women, less than 14% of practicing engineers are women. Furthermore, while more women are graduating with engineering degrees, they are less likely to remain in the profession than men. The workplace and professional self-regulation are not traditionally tailored to employees who balance work and caregiving responsibilities, which are […]

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with death of dopamine-producing neurons. This results in structural changes to the striatum, substantial nigra (SNc), and ventral tegmental area (VTA). Motor symptoms of PD are extremely heterogeneous causing a high rate of misdiagnosis of similar disorders (e.g. Essential tremor; ET) as PD. This study aims to […]

The project consists of two independent segments. The first part, to be managed by PhD student Yoonseok Jwa, aims to develop and evaluate new photogrammetric computer vision algorithms for detecting and identifying POAs and insulator types attached to power lines (PL). The expected benefit to the partner can be summarized as: (a) Efficiency- automatic detection […]

Ces tests sont utilisés en entreprise dans les contextes d’embauche, de gestion d’équipes et de développement des compétences. L’équipe de développement de Solutions TLM, en collaboration avec AtmanCo, travaille […]

In this partnership, researchers from the University of Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Food Industry Development Centre aim to work collectively to create a novel type of “whole-cell” flours from Canadian pulses, such as pea, chickpea, and faba bean. In comparison with conventional pulse flours obtained from dry milling/grinding, the new pulse flours are anticipated to […]

The overall objective for this project is to support the research of two Master’s students to advance and apply methods for modelling climate policies in transport, a field in which START in the School of Resource and Environmental Management at SFU is one of the leading research teams in the country and in which Navius […]

La maladie d’Alzheimer et autres troubles apparentés sont en augmentation notamment en raison du vieillissement de la population. Les adultes et les aînés éprouvent des craintes face à la survenue de ceux-ci. Bien que le contrôle de facteurs de risques modifiables pourrait prévenir jusqu’à 40% de ceux-ci, une majorité d’adultes et d’aînés croient que seulement […]

The proposed research aims to develop a paradigm shift whereas the selection of materials containing resistance genes and QTL for soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and white mould WM) resistance by marker-assisted selection (MAS) applied on the F4 single plants. The University of Guelph uses a nursery in Costa Rica, Central America, to advance breeding materials […]

Market approval of generic products requires that such products are shown to have equivalent safety and efficacy as the innovator product currently on the market. In general, generic topical dermatological products require comparative clinical trials in patients which require a large number of patients, are expensive and lengthy. This has led to a shortage of […]

Impacts of increased wildfires and wildfire intensity have impacts that go beyond the initial devastation often shown on the news. Wildfire recovery is a long, difficult, and multi-faceted undertaking, especially within the context of a changing climate. This project is intended to better understand the impacts of wildfire on invasive and native (culturally important) plants. […]
