Prevalence of major depressive disorders have been on the rise over the last few decades. Depression is an important public health problem that touch pregnant people. Depression during pregnancy has been associated with many negative outcomes, such as cognitive impairment and childhood psychopathology in the offspring. Many pregnant women take antidepressants, such as Selective serotonin […]

This project aims to improve communication between pilots and air traffic control (ATC) by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and visual aids with traditional voice communication. By using AI to generate real-time visual cues (like text and icons), we hope to reduce misunderstandings and improve situational awareness for pilots. This will help make flying safer and […]

Software systems produce large amount of logs of different types. Event logs and system traces have been the focus of many research for their information content and often machine friendly format; but another type of logs often overlooked are console logs. Parsing console logs presents two main challenges: their formatting is inconsistent and they contains […]

Using 33S to understand the extent of assimilation in the Northern Limb of the Bushveld Igneous Complex: Implication of PGE-Ni-Cu mineralisation

I believe, this chance to work alongside such esteemed professionals in MIT will be a valuable opportunity for me to enhance my skills and make meaningful contributions to the field. Moreover, this experience will also showcase the research excellence of UBC on a gloabal platform and will undoubtedly lead to future collaborations between our group […]

Phytochemicals including vitamins, carotenoids and phenolic compounds have been widely accepted as the functional substances that make cereal grain health beneficial. Increasing evidence has shown the relation between these antioxidant phytochemicals and reduced risks of oxidative-stress related chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and some cancers. Among these cereal grains, rice is of critical […]

In recent years, lignin valorization has been given more attention by the scientific community, hoping to make breakthroughs in the field. Thus, this project aims to attribute value to lignin biomass (sugarcane bagasse and sugarcane straw from Brazil and kraft lignin from Canada), an industry by-product that is currently being discarded as industrial waste on […]

The strength and behaviour of the Earth’s crust is largely controlled by the presence and nature of plate boundaries—the boundaries that separate Earth’s jigsaw puzzle of tectonic plates. When movement occurs between two rigid crustal blocks, the resulting deformed zone that forms along the boundary is referred to as a deformation zone. Recent research has […]

This project aims to make quadruped robots smarter and more versatile by adding a 360-degree camera and a robot arm into a reinforcement learning control system. The quadruped robots will undergo training with these upgrades in a simulation environment before being deployed in real-world scenarios. These upgrades will help the robots better understand their surroundings […]
