This project aims to study and assess nutrient conditions in Lake Massawippi and its surroundings. Previous studies suggest that fertilizer contaminants from various agricultural plots flow to nearby waters, especially the adjacent Tomifobia river. Our team will assess soil, and water components for net transfer of nutrient and other particle contamination. These measurements will be […]

Individuals and organizations use weather information to help inform day-to-day decisions. This project focuses on the use of weather information by winter recreationists in the Province of Ontario. Based on survey data, the project will identify the main sources of weather forecast information, the importance placed on this information, and the influence of specific aspects […]

The student will develop a recommendation system for restaurants, proposing food selections to customers. This system will be based on GNN models to predict a customer’s need based on both user and order data. The data include previous purchases, data of dishes and similarity of users collected from online food orders. In the first phase […]

As a full-service, data-driven solutions provider for aviation, SKYTRAC Systems is developing new 2-MCU satellite communications (SATCOM) terminal, SDL-350, which will be capable of achieving globally available broadband transfer rates of 352 kbps both to and from the aircraft. One critical challenge facing the R&D engineers of SDL-350 is the thermal management, because the power […]

Ontario’s 73 Community Health Centres provide both health and social care services to at risk populations. During the pandemic, Community Health Centres have had to switch much of their care from in-person to virtual services. This has had some positive effects (for example, by reducing rates of missed appointments) and some negative (many clients do […]

The research question at the centre of this project is, “how can culture planning integrate equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI)?”. The project will focus on ethno-cultural dimensions of EDI in culture planning. The project aims to explore how different ethno-cultural communities are engaged in the culture planning process and how culture planning outcomes impact these […]

Ce projet sera focalisé sur le développement d’un système très sensible, rentable et multiplexe en combinant différents domaines: nanofabrication, biomatériaux et nanomatériaux. Le prototype aura un rôle interdisciplinaire dans la surveillance des maladies allergiques au besoin. Il va générer également des innovations dans les dispositifs miniaturisés et les diagnostics qui sécuriseront la commercialisation et ajouteront […]

Molecular imaging (MI) is a tool designed to help clinicians better understand disease, and potentiates effective clinical patient management through efficient diagnoses, patient stratification and monitoring of treatment response. As such, MI has a rapidly emerging role in the transition toward personalized medicine. One key enabler of MI are radioisotopes, many of which are produced […]

Dopamine and noradrenaline are neurotransmitters that are released from neurons located in the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus. Therefore, these brain structures have the unique property of containing high concentrations of neuromelanin, a dark pigment that can be visualized with specialized MRI sequences. The neuromelanin-sensitive MRI signal has been used to visualize degeneration of these […]

À ce jour, les modélisations d’impacts environnementaux du cycle de vie des briquets de poche démontrent que la phase de production des briquets de poche est celle qui a le plus d’impacts en raison des matières premières utilisées. D’autres paramètres peuvent également avoir une incidence importante sur les résultats, comme, le niveau de combustible encore […]

Jason Duff, who is completing MSc program at the University of Ottawa, recently found evidence for sedimentary rocks in the North Caribou greenstone belt that are 2680 million years old, younger than other rocks in the belt. The rocks elsewhere in the belt contain 3.0 billion year sedimentary and volcanic rocks including the host rocks […]

This project will produce a useful simulation of a 5G mmWave Cell site. This simulation will allow the Industrial Partner to evaluate and optimize the operation of a typical 5G Cell site. The simulation will model a 5G phased array antenna connected to a Base Station which will be able to create focused beam radiation […]
