In 2022, the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution 76/255, hailing the bicycle as a form of sustainable transportation, recognizing “that the bicycle can serve as a tool for development and as a means not just of transportation but also of access to education, health care and sport” (UN General Assembly, 2022, p. 2). Indeed, […]

Musculoskeletal conditions, such as sarcopenia and frailty, have been documented to affect over one billion individuals globally. To address the escalating issues of muscle atrophy, resistance training (RE) has been widely recognized for preserving and enhancing muscle mass. However, individuals nowadays often face time constraints, making it challenging to consistently engage in RE. Considering this, […]

This study is part of a larger project on gender and national security based on cross-country comparisons of feminist national security, led by Dr. Veronica Kitchen (University of Waterloo) and Dr. Tanya Narozhna (University of Winnipeg). It aims to explore Japan’s approach to pursuing feminist foreign policies and identifying areas where national security can incorporate […]

This project aims to enhance TELUS’s Responsible AI (RAI) survey, which is designed to gather public insights on key AI ethics principles like fairness, privacy, and transparency. The goal is twofold: (1) to update the RAI survey so that it better captures the evolving values and concerns of Canadians regarding AI technologies, and (2) to […]

Design skills are increasingly recognized as a core competency for software professionals. Unfortunately, these skills are difficult to teach because design requires freedom and open-ended thinking, but new designers require a structured process to keep them from being overwhelmed by possibilities. Students need clearly communicated expectations and an easy way of tracking responsibilities to keep […]

The “Student Exploration Advancements” project aims to enhance the student experience on Xello, a popular platform that helps students explore careers and plan their educational paths.

Receptor proteins are important for therapeutics, medicines, diagnostics and biomanufacturing. Generating new proteins is incredibly difficult however machine learning techniques have been developed to assist in evolving proteins. Using these techniques, I plan to create receptor mimics that are smaller and have improved properties. These will benefit many industries such as therapeutics, medicines, diagnostics and […]

In (VR, we can’t see our bodies due to replacing the real world with a virtual one. This leads to disembodiment, which has been shown to impact performance. An avatar, a digital body, can create that embodiment. The proposed research aims to combine the topic of the intern’s master’s thesis, “Investigating Graphical Realism in Mixed […]

The main goal of this research endeavor is the development of a hybrid cloud infrastructure that incorporates quantum computing techniques into its design in order to increase the security, scalability, and level of usability of existing cloud computing systems. This specifically means integrating the more sophisticated aspects of quantum computing, such as quantum cryptography and […]
