Evaluating alternatives to antibiotics in layers through coordinated in vivo experimental studies and barn-level surveillance with industry partners

The goal of this project is to bridge the gap between academic research into antibiotic alternatives and industry application. There has been extensive research into the use of alternative feed additives and water acidification to improve the ‘gut health’ of poultry; however, industry application of these findings has produced inconsistent results, resulting in a lack […]

Functional analysis of subgroup IV CDPKs in soybean

Soybean stands as one of the major field crops globally. However, its production encounters annual yield losses, partially attributed to pathogenic threats. To enhance the immunity of crops such as soybean, it is crucial to comprehend the molecular mechanisms of immune signaling. Building on our prior research, we propose that specific CDPKs may represent promising […]

Harnessing Copper from Algal Blooms

With the increasing demand to feed the growing population, agriculture in Southern Ontario remains important, but the reliance on fertilizers has led to many environmental problems in aquatic systems. Annual algae blooms occur every summer in Lake Erie as warm temperatures and a supply of nutrients from agriculture fields wash into these lakes. As algae […]

The effect of a 16-week intervention of increased Greek yogurt consumption on circulating markers of bone metabolism and inflammation in youth and young adult athletes

Physical activity and dairy intake during growth and development are each known to improve peak bone mass. Peak bone mass, the maximum amount of bone a person will have in their lifetime, is typically reached in the early 20’s in females and late 20’s in males. However, evidence suggests that young people do not consume […]

Project FURTHER: Physiological determinants of female ultra-endurance running

Very little research has explored ultra-endurance running, particularly in females (15% of tested subjects). We therefore have a very limited understanding about human performance, and specifically female physiology, with ultra-distances >350 km. Lululemon Athletica inc. has sponsored an initiative ‘Project FURTHER’ whereby ten females will attempt to run as far as possible within a 6-day […]
