This project explores how international teaching programs between Canadian universities and Antiguan schools can be designed in ways that are fair, respectful, and beneficial for everyone involved. The research focuses on the Antigua Champions for Health (ACH) program, where Canadian student-teachers work with Antiguan schools to support health and physical education. By listening to both […]

The integration of machine learning models and the extraction of meaningful data into industrial workflows continues to accelerate, driving innovation and new business opportunities. Leveraging our expertise in mathematical and statistical modeling, we aim to apply these technologies to address critical challenges in agriculture, where up to 40% of crop yields are lost due to […]

This project will create a privacy-preserving AI coding assistant that runs directly on a user’s computer instead of relying on cloud services. Many organizations, such as governments and healthcare providers, cannot use cloud-based AI tools because of data security and confidentiality concerns. The system will automatically detect the user’s hardware (CPU, GPU, memory) and select […]

This project will design, prototype, and evaluate an explainable, human-in-the-loop Large Language Model (LLM) system to enhance patient engagement and personalization in healthcare while ensuring transparency, privacy, and equity. Building on recent findings that current LLM-based healthcare tools lack robust real-world evaluation and interpretability, the research will develop explainability modules, privacy-preserving techniques, and rigorous evaluation […]

The project will investigate how language practices in multilingual and multicultural schools influence students’ learning experiences and educational opportunities. It aims to identify challenges faced by students from diverse linguistic backgrounds and explore strategies that promote inclusion and equity in education. By collecting and analyzing data on classroom language use, the project seeks to provide […]

Standing requires every claimant to establish a connection between his situation and the basis of the lawsuit which justifies his participation in the legal proceedings. It is often characterized as context sensitive, particularly in administrative law, given the diversity of decisions likely to be subject to judicial review of administrative action. The objective of my […]

Healthy pregnancies require major changes in blood flow to support the growing baby. Specifically, the mother’s uterine arteries must widen to allow more blood to reach the placenta, and the placenta must build a complex network of blood vessels to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the fetus. In hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), these changes […]

Our research concerns a group of lipid trafficking proteins, scientifically known as ABC transporters, that only work when submerged in the sea of lipids, which we call membranes. These proteins can “pick up” lipid molecules, especially sterols, and move the lipids out or into the cells. We know that different members of these lipid trafficking […]

Organoids are powerful cellular models that can advance our understanding of human biology and disease progression. They can be generated from human patient samples and be used to screen the best treatment course for patients, thereby allowing for a personalized therapeutic approach. However, a major challenge facing the organoid field is the lack of standard, […]

Global agricultural supply chains face persistent challenges such as unstable supply, uncertain demand, and tariff-related uncertainty that further complicates pricing and network design. This project focuses on the design and optimization of global greenhouse agricultural supply networks under trade policy and market uncertainty. The research aims to improve supply chain profitability, resilience, and adaptability to […]

This project aims to make mass timber buildings, a sustainable alternative to concrete and steel, even more reliable. While mass timber is great for the environment, we don’t fully understand how it handles moisture over time, which can affect its durability. Our project will tackle this by using advanced sensors to monitor a new mass […]

Faulting might be affecting the flow of injected CO2 into the subsurface at the Aquistore Carbon Capture and Storage facility in southeastern Saskatchewan. 3D seismic data indicate that faulting affects the Deadwood Sandstone injection target approximately 100 m to the west of the injection well. The seismic data cannot however image all the structural complexity […]
