This project investigates how metastatic lung cancer develops and evolves over time. DNA sequencing can be utilised to identify patterns in cancer genomes associated with specific sources of mutation (eg: UV rays, tobacco smoke, intrinsic cellular processes). Additionally, cancers may acquire defects in DNA repair mechanisms, resulting in a positive feedback loop of increasing mutation […]

Proposed research project consists of finding a suitable solution to the problem of tracking assets in environments with different constraints. The solution is expected to include the development of geolocation algorithm and then based on the algorithm creating schematics of several modules with transceivers, embedding of required low level software to the selected microcontroller controlling […]

The goal of this research The system will be designed to intelligently propose redactions for court officers to examine, thereby integrating human oversight with advanced technological capabilities.is to engineer an intuitive and user-friendly system capable of automatically scrutinizing and eradicating confidential information contained within refugee court files in Canada. By leveraging cutting-edge language processing and […]

Project Description Public Project Overview: This proposal addresses a critical issue faced by Popeyes, a major fast food chain boasting over 45 establishments within the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario. Their Google review rating has seen a downturn, and they have set a target to uplift it significantly by 2024. Upon studying the customer feedback, a […]

In this research project, a computational tool will be developed to predict the ground vibration intensities and frequencies during construction activities in urban areas and mining operations. This tool will help minimize the number of vibration monitoring sensors and arrange them properly. It can also reduce the monitoring time significantly. Furthermore, it will help gather […]

More than 100,000 Canadians are affected by Parkinson’s disease which affects the brain. It can disrupt the daily lives of patients as they find it challenging to walk, talk and express themselves. Current therapies to treat Parkinson’s disease provide symptomatic relief and are not effective. A protein called alpha synuclein is known to promote brain […]

The proposed project is to combine digital holographic microscopy (DHM) and interferometric scattering microscopy (iSCAT), which can be separated into two sub-tasks. The first one is introducing reconstruction holographic algorithm to iSCAT image analysis, realizing real-time particle 3D tracking. Tracking objects along the optical axis in iSCAT is commonly done by comparing the shape of […]

The procedural justice model emphasizes the key role of police behavior in generating compliance. This concept suggests that citizens will be more satisfied and less likely to resist when police explain their actions, show that they work for the wellbeing of the community, and act respectfully. In the proposed evaluation project, the outcomes of a […]

Q&C is a pharmaceutical consultancy company which offers an array of services, some of which include providing guidance to ensure site compliance with the Good Manufacturing Principles (GMP), performing internal audits and helping drug companies navigate the Canadian regulatory landscape in all their operations. This project will aid Q&C in tapping into new markets and […]

At any given time, a casino has to decide which table games to present to its customers and what betting limits to place on those tables. Understanding that a table games is a service and that the table limit is pricing, this is a classic service pricing problem. However, the number of tables and the […]

In Canada, First Nation, Métis and Inuit (FNMI) students experience higher rates of absenteeism and lower rates of school success compared to non-FNMI students. However, little research has explored this issue from the perspective of FNMI communities. This study aims to conceptualize attendance and absenteeism among a group of urban Inuit students in Ottawa who […]

This project focuses on assessing the commercialization viability of Rogers Communications’ investments in 5G technology, with a specific focus on smart buildings, smart cities, and smart healthcare. The project aims to support ongoing innovation projects in partnership with the University of Waterloo by evaluating their commercialization potential through qualitative research. The project will benefit Rogers […]
