Measuring Kingston’s Economic Resilience

This research project will create data dashboards that measure Kingston’s economic resiliency a year into the pandemic. The data will be collected from multiple organizations and sources to create a comprehensive look at the pandemic’s impact. The data dashboards will cover the areas of business and tourism, health and community, mobility and home and employment. […]

Cultural Diversity and the Persistence of the BIPOC Community in the Chemical Sciences

The representation of the Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) community decreases at higher levels of education/academia. This phenomenon is proverbially referred to as the ‘leaky pipeline’ and has been studied extensively with various populations in multiple disciplines. However, despite scholars identifying some key factors that contribute to the persistence of the BIPOC community […]

Understanding Gene Model Maps

Researchers are often tasked with finding related works in their respective field, including journal entries and images that represent the work contributed, which allows researchers to summarize and expand previous contributions. Biological researchers often convey their contributions through visual illustrations, also considered gene model maps. These gene model maps are used to represent how contributions […]

Machine Learning and Stochastic Chemical Modelling: A Novel Synthesis for Emissions Mitigation

Combustion-generated particles called ‘soot’ are the second worst contributor to climate change and are carcinogenic to humans. The formation of soot in combustion devices, however, remains poorly understood. It is therefore essential to gain a better fundamental understanding of soot formation to help reduce soot emissions and mitigate its negative effects on humans and the […]

Developing a Field Deployable Assay System for Environmental Monitoring

There are currently over 9,000 potentially contaminated sites in Canada that require environmental assessment. The Field Deployable Assay (FDA) is a simple and cost-effective method for performing accurate environmental monitoring and site assessments. The FDAs are composed of a stationary main body and a variety of interchangeable cartridges. These cartridges act as miniature greenhouses, easily […]

An Enhanced Micro-Suspension System

VueReal is currently developing LED technology that requires transfer of devices during fabrication to other sites. However, these devices are fragile. During the transfer process, an unacceptably large number of devices are damaged due to failures in their suspension systems. This reduces the fabrication yield and therefore increases production cost. It is not obvious whether […]

Bridging the Gap: A Research Evaluation of a High School to Post-Secondary Preparatory Program for At-Risk and Underrepresented Groups

Mathstronauts’ NEXUS Program is a 12-week program in which grade 11 and 12 students from underrepresented groups gain fundamental technical skills in the areas of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) and soft skills (time management, note taking, etc.) to support their transition into post-secondary education. To investigate the impact of this intervention, our intern […]
