The research project aims to enhance the security and reliability of navigation systems by developing advanced techniques for estimating the vehicle’s position and orientation, even in the presence of sensor attacks. By investigating the impact of potential attacks on sensor data, the project seeks to develop algorithms that can accurately estimate the vehicle’s location and […]

Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCM) are brain vascular malformations which occur in one person out of 200. Their consequences are devastating as they provoke epilepsy, stroke and many neurological disorders. CCM develop only in low blood flow venules and not in arteries in which the high flow has a protective effect. Yet, why CCM lesions form […]

In this research project, our focus is on the development of novel, safer methods of birth control. Our investigation centers around a reproductive hormone known as AMH, which can help prevent pregnancy without the side effects of traditional methods. Building on our exciting progress in animals like cats and mice, our immediate objective is to […]

The objective of the project is to develop robust path coverage algorithms for applications arising in search and rescue in earthquake struck urban areas and fault detection in energy distribution networks. The salient feature of the algorithms that will be developed is that they take uncertainty about the model into account and provides worst case […]

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 […]

Primary liver cancer (PLC) is one of the fastest growing cancer in Canada and is a heavy global burden. To efficiently allocate the health care resource to the patients with PLC, outcome and cost analysis of the patients with PLC may be a right direction. In order to obtain enough information to accurately assess the […]

Microneedles are small sub-millimeter projections that allow for pain free access to the dermal layers of the skin. This allows for enhanced drug delivery and biosensing capabilities that are much more accessible and comfortable for the patient. This work aims to improve the capabilities of a solid metal microneedle system designed for use in electrical […]

Les récents changements institutionnels de l’Union européenne, tels que le Traité de Lisbonne, ont renforcé son rôle et son impact, tandis que les crises, comme le Brexit et la crise migratoire, ont touché divers domaines politiques et la vie quotidienne des Européens. Ce projet explore comment les crises ont pu avoir un impact sur les […]

La mastication est une fonction vitale dont le rôle principal est de préparer les aliments pour la déglutition et la digestion en les réduisant par une série de mouvements rythmiques. Elle est régie par des circuits neuronaux du tronc cérébral, appelés générateurs de patrons centraux. Des données préliminaires du laboratoire d’accueil indiquent que la mastication […]

LANGA is a project at Copernicus Studios (Halifax, NS) that is experimenting with the use of automated speech recognition in on-line video games to assist in language learning. Over the past 2 years, the company has been developing prototypes of the game and testing them in conjunction with the NeuroCognitive Imaging Lab at Dalhousie University. […]

Le projet de recherche explore l’augmentation du nombre de groupes parlementaires à l’Assemblée nationale française, passant de quatre en 2007 à dix en 2022, en examinant les facteurs qui expliquent cette évolution. Il examine si les modifications des règles de procédures de l’Assemblée, et notamment celles relatives aux groupes parlementaires, ont contribué à cette croissance. […]
