We have developed a device that is rapid, sensitive and adaptable to performing multiple assays to detect chemicals, biologicals, non-biologicals, salts, metals and pathogens to mention a few. Activity involved in this project will model the behaviour of sensors to better understand the output sensitive to the analyte of interest and the sensor configurations. This […]

The public greatly depends on a country’s health care providers to be sufficiently healthy to deliver care themselves. When the wellness of health-care workers suffers, then the health of the public at large is put in jeopardy. This project represents a ground-breaking collaboration between the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) who created a comprehensive mental health […]

Excessive use of antimicrobials results in the evolution of antimicrobial resistant microbes, and the infection caused by such microbes are known as antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections. AMR infections are on the rise and has a negative impact on the quality of life, healthcare system and ultimately on the economy. The current proposal aims at the […]

AltaML is an innovative company capitalizing on a major technological trend: artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, enabled by big data, are driving a fourth industrial revolution. AI will transform all industries, but traditional industries face challenges in implementing AI. AltaML has a unique business model to overcome barriers to adoption of AI solutions by industry, which […]

To ensure effective pest control in Alberta, we will compare the efficacy of our local entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) with a commercially available strain, S. feltiae. EPNs are microscopic worms that naturally kill pests like black cutworms and cabbage root maggots. Our study will focus on a native EPN strain (strain 213) and a commercial strain […]

Natik just recently moved to a new ERP System to keep up with the demands of Natik’s growth. Some practices we follow may not be applicable or efficient with the new system. The Project Management module is in the new ERP system thus Purchase Order system is online which we expect could help us keep […]

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a long-term condition that affects how people move and function in their daily lives. It can be challenging for individuals with PD and their families. To help improve the lives of people with PD, the Parkinson’s Association of Alberta has created a program that includes different activities throughout the day. These […]

Current financial models do an inadequate job of capturing the nuances of actual market movements and often exclude the characteristics that would differentiate the resulting data from randomly generated data. The project will identify the key market characteristics that encompass actual market movements by extending current pricing models to encompass those characteristics that are deemed […]

In the energy sector, developing renewable energies such as carbon capture and utilization (CCU), bioenergy (biogas, biofuels, or green bio-chemicals), and hydrogen-based technology depends on improving catalytic technology. Technology providers in these sustainable areas are focused on developing better catalytic technology, while stakeholders must decide which technology to bet on. The challenge lies in the […]

Near-infrared (NIR) imaging systems play a vital role in human tissue imaging. These systems can facilitate various vital clinical applications. Such applications enable real-time metabolic monitoring, non-invasive imaging of the lymphatic system, and mapping of microvasculature blood flow. In this research, the problem to be addressed is the lack of accessibility to cheap near infrared […]

CT angiograms (CTA) are used to detect vessel occlusions in the brain in stroke patients and are a diagnostic criteria of acute stroke. Current standards of care require that an additional CT perfusion scan to be taken in order to accurately locate large and medium-vessel occlusions, allowing for the administering of endovascular therapy (EVT) to […]
