Following a spinal cord injury (SCI), sensory and motor impairments affect the ability to perform daily life tasks independently, such as transferring or grabbing an object. Intuitively to accomplish these tasks, the use of the upper and lower limbs is obvious, but the trunk is equally essential. Trunk control alterations generate deficits in the functional […]

The goal of this research is to leverage the telematics data collected in the context of the usage-based insurance program at Intact for road safety improvement. Specifically, we aim to tackle issues on the identification of risky driver behaviors through the characterization of unsafe events and to identify sites on the road network with high […]

Front-end Module is key component in satellite and wireless telecommunication systems. It contains sub-modules like power amplifier, duplexer, antenna, low noise amplifier and etc. Advanced semiconductor technology enables the integration of these sub-modules. Compared to conventional bulky communication systems, this integration features compact size, lower cost, and higher performance. In 2019, the MMIC market reaches […]

Fisheries are a fundamental contributor to socio-economic growth in northern Canadian communities and are a management priority considering limited alternative economic opportunities available in the region. The proposed research aligns with core research needs of industry/resource managers to meet three objectives: 1. examine movement dynamics, habitat-use, and bycatch hotspots to aid development of community-based Greenland […]

Red Maple Trials (Ottawa, ON) created a facility for the research of allergy, in which patients can be exposed (challenged) to airborne allergens and symptoms can be monitored in a controlled manner. The primary clientele of Red Maple Trials are pharmaceutical companies testing allergy medications. Two testing rooms (small for 1-3 subjects, and large for […]

Workplace discrimination is common for Indigenous people (1,2). Unacceptable behaviours may take place at work, such as threats, intimidation, or violence (2). The workplace is a location where behaviour labeled as ‘bullying’ occurs (1,3). When examining Indigenous workers, the impacts of behaviour defined as bullying (and the mere act of defining the behaviour as bullying […]

Atlantic salmon are Canada’s top aquaculture export and contribute $1.5 billion annually to British Columbia’s (BC) economy. In BC, blooms of toxic algae are a common problem for salmon farmers, often resulting in large production losses due to lost growth and disease with high mortality. I recently identified for the first time at BC fish […]

NeoCtech aims at producing critical rare earth elements (REE), e.g. Neodymium and Dysprosium, from end-of-life materials. REE are called rare because there are few viable primary resources to extract them due to mineralogy of REE bearing ores and physicochemical properties of REE. NeoCtech is carrying out R&D to address the circular economy of REE, and […]

The reduction of antibiotic use in livestock as an emerging public health response, as well as the continued increase in the global need for animal-based proteins, requires holistic approaches to address these current challenges in animal production. Immunonutrition is a promising field that allows modulate immune system responses through interventions with specific nutrients that have […]
