Establishing the reliability of DTI and resting-state fMRI as markers of traumatic brain injury Year Two

The proposed research will investigate two brain imaging measures that hold potential as tools for the diagnosis and assessment of traumatic brain injury (TBI), including mild TBI (mTBI)/concussion. One type of image provides information about structural damage to the brain’s anatomical connections, and the other about the functional connectivity of networks of brain regions that […]

Sustainability benefits of expanded gamut printing

Expanded gamut printing is a relatively new technology that allows print companies to move away from spot colours and needing an inventory of these colours on hand or ordering them from their ink supplier every time a print job requires a spot colour. With expanded gamut printing the same seven colours remain in the printing […]
