Despite significant development of various construction materials, masonry is still considered as one of the most cost-effective materials. However, they are often vulnerable to wind-induced lateral loads caused during construction stage (within 1 to 2 days of construction) when the masonry is yet to achieve full strength. Temporary bracing systems are often used to support […]

The project focuses on transforming clinical documentation with advanced AI, specifically Large Language Models (LLMs), to alleviate the burden on healthcare professionals. Aimed at improving efficiency and accuracy, the strategy involves creating an AI-powered charting assistant that seamlessly turns clinician-patient interactions into standardized clinical documents, offered as a subscription-based SaaS platform. Initiatives include fine-tuning LLMs […]

Rydberg atom-based sensors are a room temperature quantum technology for detecting radio frequency waves. These sensors have advantages such as electromagnetic transparency and ultrabroadband carrier frequency detection capability that are not possible to obtain with conventional antennas. The advantages lead to a host of applications in radio frequency technologies such as communications, particularly 5G and […]

This research project centers on developing the Functional Impairment Rating Scale (FIRS), a new tool to better assess how people with neurological and mental health disorders can complete everyday tasks. Traditional assessment methods often rely on patients’ descriptions of their abilities or clinicians observations, which can miss important details. The FIRS aims to address this […]

Leveraging Internship to Address Critical Challenges in Software Development Project 1: Enhancing Business Operations Reporting System Our software development agency is facing significant challenges in managing fixed cost and time and materials projects. The success of these projects is contingent on staying within the allocated time and ensuring employees are actively engaged in billable projects. […]

Soil and groundwater pollution with harmful petroleum contaminants such as BTEX is a global concern. BTEX has carcinogenic and mutagenic properties, therefore, it is essential to remove such contaminants for a healthy ecosystem. Microorganism-mediated bioremediation is an extremely promising technique that is cost-effective, efficient, and safe for the environment. However, limited biological knowledge about the […]

Recent studies in the field of biodiesel production emphasize the use of waste materials, such as used cooking oils and agricultural by-products like banana peels, to enhance sustainability and reduce environmental impacts. Researchers are exploring innovative methods to utilize these waste materials both as raw materials and catalysts, thereby promoting a circular economy. The latest […]

Over 4 months we will work to scope and structure global innovation efforts in one, and potentially more, key areas to tackle large sustainability challenges. The areas are SF6, plastics (with a focus on bio plastics) and agricultural innovation (including soil carbon measurement). A large focus will be on innovation to tackle the challenge of […]

This project focuses on identifying and developing methods of estimating the Green house Gas (GHG)- emissions related benefits of bicycle infrastructure (such as, painted bike lanes, protected bike lanes, multi-use trails). GHG-emissions estimation methods that consider both the “benefits” and “costs” related to active transportation infrastructure is extremely rare, and as a result, there is […]

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada has initiated a program to reduce fertilizer N2O emissions by 30 % from 2020 to 2030 [14]. Accurate monitoring of agricultural N2O emissions is crucial for understanding their environmental impact and implementing effective mitigation strategies. Current research mainly focuses on measuring N2O emissions from the ground. The spectroscopic-based LI-COR sensor is […]

My doctoral research aims to understand the emerging contentions on common good and citizenship in Turkey as an implication of Turkey’s adoption of free market mechanisms in energy production. In my research, I analyze the different legal (courts), material (public participation meetings) and conceptual (posing livelihoods as an alternative to private property) sites these contentions […]
