This research project enables an intern to work with the Friends of the Royal Saskatchewan Museum to undertake a project working with the Pinay Collection in the Ethnobotany collection at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum. The Pinay collection was acquired through a donation to the RSM and includes 56 photographs taken in Cumberland House, SK at […]

This project addresses a flexible autonomous robotic welding system. Despite the advancements in robotic systems, there are still significant challenges in developing welding robots for industrial applications. Challenges such as accurately determining the weld seam coordinates, ensuring the electrode head remains at the correct distance from the weld seam, and mitigating high environmental noise have […]

This project, in partnership with the City of Saskatoon, will develop the parameters for Active Transit corridors. While the long term goal is for multiple corridors, this initial exploration and research will focus on the College Corridor adjacent to the University of Saskatchewan Campus and one that has a great deal of daily traffic. This […]

This project aims to investigate the structural features, functional properties, and nutritional quality of durum wheat flours and respective isolated starches of five different lines varying in amylose contents. Flours of two selected durum wheat lines (one normal and one high-amylose) will also be used to produce high-quality and nutritious pasta products and evaluated to […]

Bovine colostrum is the milk produced by cows immediately after calving. It contains high levels of proteins that improve immune protection and may act to prevent colds. During intense training, athletes often have compromised immune function. This may be especially true in club-level rugby players who abruptly start high intensity training in the spring in […]

Indoor pollution sources (e.g., fuel-burning combustion appliances, building materials, and furnishings) are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems. Household air pollution was responsible for an estimated 3.2 million deaths per year in 2020, including over 237,000 deaths of children under the age of 5. To address this problem, we developed a nature-based air […]

Parks and recreation in Canada are an integral part of people’s lives as they serve multiple functions and provide several benefits to the municipalities in which they are situated. Hence the threat of climate change on parks and recreation could have a multiplier effect on the lives of people. As a province-wide network, the Saskatchewan […]

The proposed research will test formulations of chitosan based formulations (chitoplax) for its antimicrobial properties and its ability to be used as a biofilm coating for fruits and vegetables. The intern Bittu Varghese will evaluate the chitoplax formulations for its physical and chemical properties, and ability to protect fruits and vegetables from spoilage and water […]

Enhancing the efficiency of expanding HVAC systems is a complex task. Utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques like Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning offers promising solutions. ENA Solution’s smart thermostats provide the potential to employ AI methods for temperature control and energy optimization. In recent years, the company has made efforts to integrate AI for […]
