This project aims to research and develop on building a real-time deepfake audio detection system that is capable of distinguishing between authentic and spoofed audio voices with the help of Quantum Machine Learning (QML). The primary goal is to identify the limitations of existing classical ML techniques and explore how QML can improve the different […]

Our research project aims to preserve the post-thaw viability and functionality of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from equine cord blood (eCB-MSCs). The project addresses the challenge posed by asynchronous culture paired with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-based cryopreservation, which may lead to cryoinjury, batch variability, and reduced therapeutic effectiveness. By investigating a novel DMSO-free cryoprotective agent […]

The population of Canadians aged 85 and older is rapidly increasing, with over 861,000 people in this age group recorded in the 2021 Census, more than double the figure from 2001. The number of seniors aged 85+ continues to rise and could triple by 2046, reaching 2.5 million. Additionally, over 9,500 centenarians now live in […]

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are expected to carry out tasks of increased complexity, expanding in indoor environments such as warehouses and healthcare settings. However, indoor environments impose unique challenges to UAVs as the enclosed space is relatively small and safety is crucial for people working in the same space. Furthermore, the unavailability of GPS leads […]

The overall objective of this project is to reduce ergonomic risk and the potential for workplace injury across the entire production facility. Repetition, force and posture are factors that can lead to fatigue and injury among workers in a manufacturing setting. By developing an ergonomic demands and risk assessment tool based on current research, the […]
