In disaster scenarios involving airborne contaminants, where the dispersal of toxic agents can impact human lives, first responders require fast and accurate dispersal trajectory information. Existing methods that detect the local presence of an agent do not provide insight towards dispersal trajectory, and long range spread is either simulated with sparse reference data or measured […]

This project is a partnership between York University and Sixth Wave Innovation Inc. (SIXW). The goal of this partnership is to develop components of a portable and low-cost technology for rapid and on-site air sampling and detection of aerosol viruses in indoor and outdoor environments. Virus capturing will be done by Molecularly Imprinted Polymers (MIPs) […]

With an aging population on the rise, the prevalence of cognitive decline is expected to increase substantially. Goal Management Training® (GMT) and the Memory and Aging Program® (MAP) are cognitive interventions that have been studied extensively and applied clinically to address these needs. Although previous research has demonstrated efficacy of the in-person versions of both […]

The Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) is a not-for-profit public-private partnership research organization that aims to accelerate the discovery of new medicines through open science. This Mitacs cluster will bring together SGC’s industry and academic collaborators to work together towards new and affordable medicines for challenging diseases. Sixty-three post-doctoral fellows will spend 2-3 years developing open […]

Various industries and warehouse operations often need free-standing jib cranes to be installed on the floor. Industrial floors typically consist of unreinforced or very lightly reinforced concrete slabs poured directly on the ground which may not have sufficient strength to support the crane. Improper design may result in severe cracking which raises concrete durability issues […]

Genetic improvement is core to the long-term productivity and viability of all livestock industries. A review of crossbred genetic evaluation methods and approaches for national and international genetic improvement programs will determine the necessary improvements to make to AgSights’ genetic evaluation system (GES). Research will be conducted on hardware, software packages and statistical methods best […]

In this project, we plan to address the specific problem that TeTechS Inc is facing at this stage of its product development project, which is collecting a complete set of measurement data for an array of organic materials with different levels of purity and demonstrate the capability of its proprietary terahertz sensing techniques to qualify […]

Considering the fact that software is deployed on open devices (such as PCs, tablets, smartphone, etc.), White-Box Cryptography (WBC) that protects security software is becoming an essential technology. In the software security industry, there is an ongoing research on new methods to perform WBC and, more specifically, to design data transformation algorithms that are robust […]

The vast disruptions to modern supply chains and customer channels due to the implications of COVID-19 are forcing many small-medium enterprises to adapt and alter business models. This project will seek to research, create, and deploy alternative supply chain models and customer selling channels for the partner organization in order to access new customer demographics […]

The overarching goal of this project will be to strengthen organic, and possibly paid, traffic to build company credibility and generate leads for the sales pipeline by developing an online presence within the B2B manufacturing market prior to a Merger and Acquisition. The project will include website development, Search Engine Optimization, User Experience maximization, as […]
