Electromagnetic (EM) methods are commonly used for geophysical exploration in various applications such as mineral exploration, hydrocarbon detection, management of fresh and salt water and CO2 and reservoir monitoring. While in the past, EM methods suffered from expensive data collection, new systems now collect massive amounts of data over space and time, and new instrumentation […]

This proposal aims to develop materials which have the potential to drastically reduce the energy consumption in large data centers by replacing existing copper interconnects with much more efficient optical interconnects. Gallium nitride (GaN) is a material that is responsible for the current revolution in lighting technology allowing full spectrum light emission over all visible […]

It is estimated that over 12 million tons of plastic enter our oceans annually, which slowly break down creating microplastics less than 5mm in size. In the past decade, the role microbes play in this degradation has been explored as they possess the ability to metabolize plastic, using it as an energy source. In this […]

This four-month research project is a collaboration between Takla Nation, Vancouver Island University, the Salish Sea Entheogenic Society. The project’s goal is to evaluate the role of intergenerational trauma healing in addiction recovery within the Takla Nation by exploring an Indigenous-focused, entheogen-assisted recovery program with support from the Nation’s Addiction Resource Committee (ARC). The Multi-Eyed […]

Research focused on the history of Latin American animation, from its inception, exploring international collaborations, and concluding in contemporary animation.
