Our project will be reviewing and comparing the differences in curriculum for kindergarten to grade 6 between Canada and China. We will conduct a comparative analysis of curricula, noting the variation in the topics, depth and span of the content. We will be observing how the different curriculum will be implemented in a classroom by […]

The objective of this research is to develop an Ontario-based Wastewater Management Standard (WWMS), which is aligned with the currently statutorily required Ontario Drinking Water Management Standard (DWQMS) and with ISO 14001 for environmental management systems. This proposed research will bring much needed standardization for the quality and environmental management for municipal and non-municipal wastewater […]

The intern will evaluate disparities in the use of diabetes technologies among individuals from historically marginalized communities in Canada, explore barriers and facilitators to use of diabetes technologies, and identify novel strategies to improve equitable use. The intern will determine associations between marginalization and the use of insulin pumps and CGM, as well as interactions […]

The main objective of this research project is to contribute to developing a model that can provide robust early warning to changes in influenza cases and help to reduce ILI spread globally. The model, Modified Exponential Growth Algorithm (MEGA), will characterize the early ascending phase of epidemic disease and will be used to detect changes […]

The larger study project aims to assess and enhance the impact of virtual health interventions on older adults with IDD, their family caregivers, and service providers. The first phase of the research project will explore and investigate current challenges older adults with IDD experience within academic and grey literature, and data collected from previous virtual […]

Evident in extreme weather events and a 1.1°C global temperature increase since the late 1800s, attributed to rising greenhouse gas emissions. It stresses the urgency of addressing climate change to meet 2030 and 2050 carbon and energy targets, presenting a sustainability challenge requiring broad-scale action on environmental, social, and economic fronts. The focus turns to […]

With the mining industry striving to become more sustainable, there is a pressing need to re-evaluate typical open pit restoration practices. Many open pit mining operations are naturally inundated after operations, leaving behind an unproductive lake. These sites neglect the environmental, cultural and socio-economic implications for dependent communities. One promising alternative that generates a positive […]

While many Canadian planning practitioners are familiar with the harmful legacies of transportation infrastructure development in the United States, particularly as it relates to the displacement and forced removal of racialized and low-income communities, there is comparatively little documentation or awareness of this history in Canada. This research project will contribute to filling this knowledge […]

Recent experimental advances have enabled the creation of setups where matter and quantized electromagnetic fields (photons) interact more strongly than the typical energy scale of the matter. Specifically, these strongly coupled light-matter systems have been achieved within the realm of cavity quantum electrodynamic (QED) materials, placing a material of interest inside a cavity of photon […]
