The Parkinson’s Remote Interactive Monitoring System (PRIMS) developed by PragmaClin Research Inc. was designed to be an easy-to-use digital system which can accurately assess motor symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease remotely. The problem is that a well-designed usability study has not been performed to determine the PRIMS technology’s true ease of use. This Canadian study aims […]

Cellular agriculture uses laboratory-grown cells to sustainably produce food, although high cost of growing cells currently limits widespread commercial application of this technology. Because Animals seeks to develop cat food using mouse stem cells, which can be grown indefinitely and converted into muscle and fat cells. Stem cells grow in a liquid medium that contains […]

This project explores the experiences of adverse school experiences among young adults who are underemployed and residing in a rural region of Southwest Saskatchewan. Adverse school experiences consist of distressing or disturbing experiences occurring within the context of schools or learning activities and can include academic failure, discrimination, or negative interactions with peers or teachers […]

Loin pain-hematuria syndrome (LPHS) is a rare human disease with a reported prevalence of 12 per 100,000. It is predominantly observed in women with the age at symptom onset ranging from the first to sixth decade of life, with most patients being in late 20s or early 30s. The characteristic feature of LPHS is unrelenting […]

Many bird species are highly vocal, and this provides opportunities to monitor avian biodiversity by acoustic surveys. In recent decades, the use of Autonomous Recording Units (ARUs) has gained popularity as a mechanism to census birds through passive acoustic monitoring. Further, automatic algorithms for identifying bird species by their vocalizations have been developed to improve […]

L’entreprise RBot9 a développé le RoCap, un robot parallèle entraîné par câbles (RPEC) qu’elle destine à des applications d’inspection, d’entretien et de fabrication d’aéronefs. Afin de faciliter la collaboration entre le RoCap et son opérateur, on voudrait améliorer deux aspects de ce robot : (1) on voudrait faciliter le redéploiement du robot en permettant son […]

A new atomizer for vaping devices will be studied experimentally and numerically. The visualization of the flow inside the atomizer microchannels and the liquid film formed over to the top surface of the atomizer (with and without surface heating) will be attempted. Aerosol characterization using Phase Doppler Anemometer (PDA) will be conducted. In addition, numerical […]

People with cirrhosis, a progressive scarring of the liver, often experience frequent and prolonged hospitalizations which have significant impacts to their quality of life. There are many areas for improvement in cirrhosis care such as the enhanced promotion of complication-specific order panels like that for hepatic encephalopathy, a serious complication caused by a buildup of […]

The proposed research aims to optimize soil model parameters through inverse analysis of deep excavations. Soil properties and their engineering behavior are the fundamental uncertainties among the many influential factors involved in deep excavations. Even though geotechnical investigations are usually conducted, the risks are still high due to the limited amount of soil samples extracted […]

En partenariat avec Synapse C, ce projet vise le développement d’une communauté de mutualisation de données du secteur culturel pour favoriser une co-opétition saine et l’accessibilité à des données utiles et porteuses de sens pour l’entrepreneur- artiste. En s’appuyant sur la littérature portant le partage de données en innovation ouverte, l’entrepreneuriat culturel et la mesure […]

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

Nowadays, wearable devices attract a lot of attention, especially in the healthcare field. But translating all devices to wearable devices always comes with challenges. Some of the challenges are lack of knowledge about the application of different materials in smart textiles, limitation of developed smart textiles in practical application, no significant dedication in designing clothing […]
