Organic compounds in water can be potentially hazardous. We will develop a green and solvent-free method for screening the organic pollutants in different water samples. Also, we will study the changes in water during the different treatment process. This research will benefit the community and provide a protection protocol.

Wig is a wearable device that can be used to help with many aspects of our lives. Since it is in close contact with the human body, it makes it a great tool for human health monitoring. This can be done through the hidden sensors in wigs that keep collecting information about physical and mental […]

Information and data are more accessible and abundant than ever before, but this presents challenges in the face of rising misinformation and mistrust in science. Large-scale datasets or “big data” is particularly suited to a set of statistical analyses called dimension reduction techniques that can reduce the complexity of a dataset while preserving its information, […]

Seaweeds naturally produce polymers that hold great potential as a building block for bioplastics, which has been piloted globally but still nascent in Canada. This project establishes a partnership between Bioform Solutions Inc. and the University of Victoria Green Safe Water Lab, to develop a seeds-to-solution protocol for converting kelp into higher value bioplastics. The […]

Entity (person or company) matching is an advanced analytics feature used to link entities together by identifying them as being the same entity or closely related entities. This is a powerful feature to augment investigations with additional entities that may be involved in a suspicious case. The goal is to uncover key features that can […]

Dans ce projet, nous proposons la simulation et l’intégration de système de distribution pour le système transactionnel afin d’apprendre et tester les différents algorithmes et approches de coordination et de contrôle décentralisés sur les échanges entre les agents, comprendre les contraintes techniques et les bloqueurs, et définir les enjeux d’intégration des RED dans le réseau […]

Raising the Grade is an innovative after-school program launched last year by the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada (BGCC) in 35 clubs across Canada. Through the use of online learning tools, mentorship, and the early promise of a scholarship, the program hopes to engage youth at risk of dropping out of high school and […]

La qualité et la durabilité des ouvrages de génie civil est fortement influencé par la densification des couches de matériaux. Le contrôle est typiquement effectué par un outil appelé le nucléodensimètre, qui comporte plusieurs inconvénients, notamment l’utilisation d’une source radioactive. D’autres techniques sont disponibles, notamment celles permettant l’enfoncement d’une tige normalisée par battage pour juger […]

In this project, we are evaluating the use of an alternative mode of communication between proteins to design peptides with therapeutic potentials. Proteins generally interact with one another to realize their functions. They do this through physical interactions. It has recently been discovered that some proteins interact via a non-classical manner and using small stretches […]

Lorsqu’une personne reçoit un diagnostic de diabète de type 2, elle rentre chez-elle, perdue et effrayée et se réfère aux histoires les plus négatives trouvées sur internet à propos de son diagnostic. Notre système de santé surmené laisse peu de temps aux professionnels épuisés pour informer les patients de manière optimale sur leur nouvelle réalité […]

Sooth measure and publish since 2021 the most important properties of skis to improve the customer shopping experience. The response of experienced skiers has been generally highly positive. Skiers enjoy being able to compare products with real measurements, and many find that they can relate their on-snow experience to these measurements relatively easily. Two main […]

The University of Calgary and the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) Calgary will collaborate to better understand Islamophobia and anti-Muslim racism. This is the most pressing challenge of the present time, and it has implications for the positive youth development and the well-being of Canadian society. The project will engage the Canadian Muslim youth […]
