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

With the development of imaging technology and research progress on wildlife monitoring, camera trapping becomes one of the best ways to record the presence and activity of mammals in a given area. The approach to monitoring wildlife can assist people in the community with decision making about preserving biodiversity. Camera trapping generates a huge volume […]

In bridges, the deck slab or panels are usually connected to the supporting girders using various types of shear connector like bent bars or threaded rods which make the interfaces significantly congested. For reducing this congestion, bridge contractors normally use steel shear studs. The proposed new research is exploring the use of double-headed fiber-reinforced polymer […]

NuVista Energy (“NuVista”) intends to develop a commercial scale demonstration of a multi-purpose hydrogen hub with blending for gas-fired turbines and future transportation fueling leveraging the novel Pulse Methane Pyrolysis (PMP) technology to significantly reduce GHG emissions related to fuel gas consumption. The demonstration project will be located at our Wembley gas plant cogeneration facility […]

Access to specialist care, especially in rural and remote locations, is a growing challenge in Alberta. Patients with conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetes, and macular edema must travel to large urban centres for assessment by retinal specialist ophthalmologists. Assessment typically requires OCT imaging, which is now broadly available through optometrist offices across the […]

Vision accounts for approximately 80% of human sensory perception. Visual information processing starts in the retina of the eye, where images are detected and encoded. Retinal cells send and receive signals through chemical synapses (using neurotransmitters) or electrical synapses (using the direct passage of ions through gap junctions). Certain retinal cell types are known to […]

The boreal zone of Alberta is fragmented by more than 1 million km of petroleum-exploration corridors. Known as seismic lines, these seemingly innocuous ~2-10m wide clearings influence a host of ecosystem processes and have been implicated in the decline of Threatened woodland caribou. With millions of dollars slated for future restoration programs designed to aid […]

In seventeenth-century England, a person’s degree of political power and community standing were determined, to a surprising degree, by the amount of land that they held, but the legal mechanisms that reinforced this system became destabilized during the period of 1640 to 1690. Parliamentary reforms, radical activism, colonialism, and an increasingly commercialized land market disrupted […]

This research focuses on making big tree-planting project better. In this project, special cameras are going to be used on planting machines to check if young trees are standing up straight when planted. This helps workers know right away if a tree isn’t planted correctly. The cameras use smart technology to quickly analyze how the […]

The operational framework of the University of Alberta Innovation Fund has been structured with a specific mandate to actively engage students. Sara Moore is set to spearhead the project, focusing on comprehensive development in all aspects of student involvement, encompassing management and organizational structuring.

The combination of aging alongside chronic conditions such as primary biliary cholangitis leads to accelerated muscle mass loss that impacts physical function. At advanced stages, this is termed frailty. Frailty is one of the strongest predictors of poor clinical outcomes including death. In this project we will use multidimensional digital health data and artificial intelligence […]

Wosler’s mission is to “To improve accessibility and reliability of high-quality healthcare for all”. In order to achieve this we must be able to provide high quality imaging services to those in rural and remote areas. The ability to transmit high quality ultrasound images to a remote computer is an integral step for the development […]
