This project aims to help the Canadian Society for Education and Outreach Alliance (CSEOA) make better use of the knowledge gained from their Understanding Risk British Columbia (URBC) symposiums. The intern will assist with analyzing content, creating outcome reports, and sharing findings across various sectors. This support will enable CSEOA to expand its impact, foster […]

Energy Disaggregation is to find the energy consumption of individual appliances from only a single measure of household electricity consumption. Accurate energy disaggregation helps identify major energy guzzlers in the house and motivates users to take proper actions for energy saving. To pursue aneasy-to-use and scalable solution to energy disaggregation for contemporary large-scale appliances, we […]

Si la recherche est abondante à étudier l’insécurité linguistique chez les locuteurs ayant le français comme langue maternelle, moins nombreuses sont les études intéressées au phénomène chez les locuteurs de français langue seconde et étrangère (FLSE) et particulièrement chez les enseignants de FLSE. Pourtant, quelques études suggèrent que ceux-ci subissent de l’insécurité linguistique en raison […]

Thermoelectric systems can produce electricity using temperature difference and heating/cooling effect using electricity. Thermoelectric systems are basically combination of p and n-type semiconductor materials. Thermoelectric systems have many advantages such as, environment friendly, no moving parts, silent in operation, and long service life. However, at this stage thermoelectric systems have very low efficiency so they […]

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare childhood cancer that affects part of the brainstem. DIPG is typically diagnosed in children aged 5-10 years old and does not have any effective forms of treatment. Since there are no treatments, the average survival time for children who are diagnosed with DIPG is only 11 months. […]

This project involves the development of a program that will aid creating operational efficiencies and lower costs to Guiding Light. The coding of the program involves: combining assessment tools that are currently being used in our centres; the gathering of clients data and mapping of charts based on these data; the use of AI to […]

Currently, microreaction technology was applied to Bunsen reaction, a key step of H2S splitting cycle, to improve process capability by overcoming mass transfer limitations. This was achieved by using low-flow advanced reactor (LF-AFR) made by Corning Inc., the smallest model, in our research lab at University of Saskatchewan. Compared to normal scale reactors, microreactors provide […]

My project investigates the genetic diversity of Aneura mirabilis, a plant that lost the ability to photosynthesize, and instead depends entirely on fungal networks to meet its energy requirements. This is the sole bryophyte lineage that made this major nutritional transition. The mycoheterotrophic lifestyle is at one end of a spectrum of plant-fungal relationships that […]

MD Progress aims to simplify the process of maintenance of certification for physicians, addressing a significant pain point in the healthcare industry. Physicians are required to demonstrate ongoing learning to remain accredited, a process that is often cumbersome and time-consuming. Our platform automates the logging of educational activities, making it easier for physicians to manage […]

Forest fire hazard mitigation is crucial for Canada due to its vast and diverse forests, which are highly prone to wildfires. These fires threaten human lives, property, and wildlife, and can cause serious economic and environmental damage. Effective strategies can reduce the frequency, intensity, and spread of wildfires, protecting communities, preserving valuable timber, and maintaining […]

Le vieillissement de la population impose un vrai défi sociétal afin de maintenir la qualité de la vie, l’autonomie, et la productivité de l’individu âgé tout en minimisant les dépenses de santé. L’un des éléments majeurs de ce défi concerne le vieillissement cérébral lié au développement des maladies neurodégénératives, notamment la maladie d’Alzheimer (MA). Actuellement […]

The project’s goal is to determine a quantum-computer suitable discretization of a target Hamiltonian. We will research how to efficiently perform the interaction and kinetic energy integrals with explicitly correlated orbitals using quantum computers, and how to efficiently use the result of those computations for the encoding of Hamiltonians. Assuming the result of the relevant […]
