Lesya Ukrainka Volyn National University has collected over 1000 narratives written by Ukrainian civilians about their experience of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. The objective of this research project is to use the narratives to discover commonalities in the language of the writers and to find whether there are linguistic markers of trauma across the narratives. […]

The search for music for a video is time-intensive. Video creators and bloggers listen to hundreds of tracks in music libraries, yet barely find the perfect one because of the difficulty of communicating their vision to the computer. Thus, the question we address in this research project is on the role of the modality, in […]

The “Improving Access to Detached Additional Dwelling Unit Data” project will help ensure the successful scaling of the ADUSearch.ca tool, an online interactive mapping tool that allows users to determine the physical feasibility of building a detached ADU in compliance with the local zoning bylaws on both a lot-by-lot basis and at an aggregated geographic […]

Involving some of the smartest students in Ukraine, the research project and partnership will enrich the Master of Global Affairs and Master of Public Policy programs at the Munk School. KSE students will provide Munk community a window into the Ukrainian policymaking process as well as a more general understanding of governance during conflict. Simultaneously, […]

Medical images were collected from cervical tumors from mice undergoing cancer treatment using radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. The purpose is to discover new biological molecules and observe the immune system reacts during radiation treatment. These images will be analyzed by MATLAB, which is a computer platform. MATLAB will perform a couple […]

There is an Elite graduate program at the University of Toronto’s Department of Computer Science called Master of Applied Science in Computing (MScAC). During this program students spend 8 months taking graduate courses and 8 months at their applied research internship at multinational research labs and startups, which send their project proposals for program approval. […]

The project partner, JuniperCDS (Juniper), is a digital health company that is developing a care and treatment planning (software) application called JuniperCDS, which is a clinical decision support software solution that enables clinicians to create meaningful, person-centric care plans by delivering in-context recommendations based on the latest clinical guidelines at the point of care. A […]

Cellular immunotherapy has yielded numerous clinical benefits in treating cancer. While many successes involve CAR T cells, unfortunately this potent anticancer cell therapy can cause serious and even fatal complications. Another immune cell, the natural killer cell (NK), may lead to effective treatment without unwanted side-effects. Furthermore, the use of stem cell-derived NKs provides additional […]

Algebraic geometry is generally concerned with understanding the properties of geometric objects defined by polynomial equations. These geometric objects, called “varieties”, are points, curves, surfaces and higher dimensional objects. To each variety there is an associated abstract object called a “commutative ring”. It is interesting to try to determine whether a variety contains a certain […]

This project is to understand the chemical modifications induced by laser irradiation leading to the formation of periodic nanostructures on the surface of metals. Such a study is very significant since it will allow to tune metallic surface properties to control for instance wettability, i.e. whether surfaces are hydrophillic (attract water) or hydrophobic (repel water). […]

Public health restrictions imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic have caused a decrease in access to sexual and reproductive health services including abortion care. In April 2020, the Indian government declared abortion care an essential service. Even though abortion is legal in India, the access to abortion care has been far from equitable owing to […]
