While efficacious treatments are available for HIV, they require lifelong adherence and can have harmful effects over time. Therefore, developing novel treatments and a preventative vaccine remain critical. While most vaccine attempts to date have been largely unsuccessful, identifying new targets on the virus, may provide novel avenues for HIV vaccines and therapies. Integrin alpha […]

Participatory plant breeding (PPB), which pairs farmers’ knowledge with the skills of formal plant breeders, is increasingly being recognized as an effective approach to develop better varieties for organic farming systems because it uses the environmental conditions of working organic farms as selection environments and incorporates farmers’ needs and observations in the selection criteria. PPB […]

This project revisits Canadian and imperial history, seeking to understand the relationship between constitutions, settler colonialism, and globalization, which shaped and continues to shape Canada and the world. Understanding them in this era of populism and nationalist governments is particularly urgent. Constitutions remain central to liberal democratic self-understanding and critically reexamining their spread among British […]

Coking is one of the most corrosive and abrasive environments in the refinery with a temperature of over 1000 F under high pressure condition. The function of the coker valve is to transport the fuel from heavy crude oil. Therefore these coker valves used more subject to failure than other valves used. It is crucial […]

The objective of this project is to optimize traffic in open pit and underground mines, in order to safely maximize production and minimize costs. The intent is that this will be done by causing vehicles to move at their maximum safe speed while at the same time choreographing mine traffic to give loaded vehicles the […]

The proposed research project is a formative evaluation and pilot-test of the implementation of Exercise is Medicine on Campus (EIM-OC)® at the University of Guadalajara (UdeG), Mexico. EIM® is a global initiative that seeks to make physical activity (PA) assessment and PA promotion the standard of care for the prevention, management, and treatment of chronic […]

Breast cancer affects 1 in 8 women during their lives and is the second-leading cause of female cancer related deaths. The ideal treatment is breast-conservation surgery during its early stage to remove the cancer while conserving healthy parts of the breast. With current resection methods, on average, one out of every three women undergoing breast-conservation […]

A growing number of language tests have been designed to assess four skills of language integratively rather than isolatedly. With the guidance of Green’s (2007) washback model on washback direction, variability, and intensity, this study adopts a two-phase embedded concurrent mixed-method design to investigate the influence of TOEFL iBT on students’ learning of integrated English […]

Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs) are a clean and sustainable alternative to conventional heating and cooling technologies. Currently, the high upfront costs and technical complexity of drilling and installing GSHPs is preventing their widespread adoption. Innovia GEO Corporation is developing a novel GSHP system that integrates directly into building structural piles. While these piles are […]
