Our immune system Is designed to protect us from harmful agents. It must initiate a rapid potent inflammatory response to eliminate invading pathogens. Although similar to the eradication of pathogens, the inflammatory response can also occur following a sterile injury and is required for tissue repair and wound healing. This includes trauma, ischaemia-reperfusion injury, autoimmunity […]

Drone light shows use precise choreography, high-powered LEDs and various projectors to create moving images in the sky. Cirque du Soleil has disguised UAVs as props and set pieces to create a sense of magic onstage. Additionally, researchers have used performance techniques, such as Laban Movement Analysis, to study human-UAV communication. Traditional performance spaces have […]

The proposed study has three objectives: Objective 1. Develop KOA microsimulation model: To develop and validate a Knee-OA population-based microsimulation model (POHEM-KOA) using the previously developed POHEM-OA model. Objective 2. Perform cost-effectiveness analysis of non-pharmacological therapies for KOA: To use POHEM-KOA in conducting a cost-effectiveness analysis of treatment strategies, including exercise therapy and weight reduction, […]

Implementation of low cost techniques for automation is critical for various industries. At Fourien, we are developing various types of analytical instruments and robotic solutions for a variety of clients. Instead of installing multiple sensors in our technologies, we can employ computer assisted image recognition to implement various levels of automation in our different platforms […]

Prolonged morphine treatment is known to cause an up-regulation of ORL1 receptors in the spinal cord (12, 13), which in turn is believed to contribute to the development of morphine tolerance by altering ?-opioid receptor mediate modulation of N-type calcium channels. Indeed, ORL1 antagonists can reverse the development of tolerance, and ORL1 knockout can mediate […]

We are looking for two interns to help reproduce a sustainable desktop program intended to track and store client database. Our current program (CMP) will no longer be supported but the program creator is accessible and can assist in supervising/answering questions. The current program contains all the code for the features required for our business. […]

ASBA is looking to facilitate the current bookkeeping activities at the Zone level by bringing some bookkeeping activities internally. The bookkeeping and funding research intern will also be responsible for assisting in grant and sponsorship research to identify potential funding sources. Part of this process will include to maintain and develop partnerships with potential sponsors […]

Cardia Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is aq pacing therapy used to reduce symptoms and mortality in patients with heart failure. It delivers a specialized pacing lead to the left ventricle (LV) through the coronary veins to re-synchronize the contraction of the heart when it has become delayed or desynchronous. However its benefit has proved to be […]

Criterium Group will support the Energy Client in transforming operations and determining the most sustainable and economic decarbonization technologies to utilize at The Asset. The Asset site has important characteristics that facilitate bridging to the new technological solutions being pursued as well as beneficial infrastructure, integration, and geological attributes that could improve the feasibility and […]

This research project will address the following question: What knowledge-based tools can help WADE Canada accelerate the suitable deployment of decentralized energy (DE) technologies? The proposed research will contribute to WADE Canada’s mission by: • Assessing the performance capabilities of DE technology providers, • Developing a tool to assess the needs of end users (those […]

Lake Kivu is a unique lake with a significant amount of methane and CO2 dissolved in its deep layer. The presence of these greenhouse gases poses a potential danger of massive disaster. The extraction of methane is viewed as a possible and profitable solution as the reduction of methane will enhance the ability of the […]

The long-term research goal of the research group is to contribute to the fundamental state-of-knowledge on gas hydrates by improving methodologies and techniques for characterization, assessment, and development of natural gas hydrate accumulations. The short-term goal and main objective of the present proposal is to characterize and assess submarine geohazards evolving from gas hydrate instability. […]
