AgSights has created several virtual tools to support livestock producers with herd inventory, individual animal tracking and several types of reports. More recently, AgSights noted a lack of similar tools as such to support decision making in the Canadian bison industry, which is also a demand observed by the industry stakeholders. Since Lakeland College (via […]

The gut microbiota comprises all bacteria inhabiting the intestines and has been shown to play a significant role in both health and disease. Although previously overlooked, new research shows that both the gut microbiota and their metabolites may influence exercise performance. Probiotic supplementation has been shown to have a small but significant positive effect on […]

Tissue-resident fibroblasts and their attendant activities are central drivers of a diverse range of diseases. The overarching theme of this proposal is to develop novel fibroblast reporter lines that will enable us to identify tractable therapeutic targets to modify fibroblast activity. To identify such targets, we are proposing to carry out high throughput screens (i.e., […]

Project 1 Circle Cardiovascular Imaging is a software medical device Manufacturer based in Calgary Alberta, Canada. Circle Cardiovascular imaging creates multiple products for the analysis of patient images for assisting the diagnosis of cardiac and neurological diseases. cvi42 Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance/Computed Tomography Imaging Software Application (referred to as cvi42) is a software as a medical […]

Forage blends also known as cocktails or polycrops are gaining popularity among beef producers and are being incorporated into grazing systems. Winter swathgrazing is a strategy that allows beef producers to extend cattle grazing activities into the fall and winter months, which provide some economic and environmental benefits that enhance farm sustainability. Adequate feed supplies […]

Please conduct feasibility study on purchasing Parkdale school. We may have the opportunity to purchase the buy the school in the near future. We may be able to get the school for no cost as through and act of reconciliation, but we may also have to buy it outright. It is an older building and […]

Symbiotic EnviroTek Inc., developed and patented a proprietary technology for growing micro-algae for producing plant-based protein for human food, animal feed and for treating wastewater. The project includes engineering revision, fabrication and testing to certain subcomponents of technology to improve operational efficiencies and performance.

The goal of our project is to develop a portable, laser-based technique for in-situ analysis of agricultural soils. This work will implement and enhance a technique known as Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for in-situ measurements of key soil properties, such as carbon content. LIBS is a minimally invasive detection technique, capable of rapid multielemental […]

Geothermal energy, unlike other renewable sources, is available at all hours of the day, and can provide industry with a continuous supply of energy. However, one of the barriers to widespread geothermal use and the replacement of natural gas as energy sources in industry, is how to incorporate geothermal energy into the industrial system without […]

Development of a user-friendly protocol for soil conservation and management on construction sites in the Bow Valley (Canmore, Banff and Bighorn). The protocol could be a reference for other provinces; the proposed practices could fit different types of actors in the construction industry, and the soil could be used for other valuable purposes.

A new artificial intelligence based markerless motion capture technology could improve care children with difficulty walking. Marker-based gait assessments are often used to help make decisions about treatments. We will explore if this new markerless approach works in kids and specifically if it works in kids with difficulty walking. We will determine if this approach […]

Cancel culture has rapidly developed into a social phenomenon sweeping through the internet as a new-age moral enforcement mechanism. When individuals call out others for their actions (past or present), they are attempting to bring attention to said others in order to bring about a form of justice. As social media has provided a medium […]
