The participants are working together to provide a novel solution to the requirement for steering antennae for satellite communications. The solution will use new integrated circuits designed to process information optically rather than electronically. The application for this work includes the provision of broadband access to remote communities. The work brings together experts from McMaster […]

Chronic stress increases the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. Specifically, chronic stress can cause increased microglial activation, leading to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines through the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. Pro-inflammatory cytokines play a role in the development and progression of certain brain diseases. Cerebiome has been associated with a reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. […]

Cybersecurity incidents such as data breaches have become more critical and costly than ever, as we are generating, processing, and relying on more digital information every day. To quickly identify potential security attacks and prevent them in a sea of system activities, machine learning (ML) has been applied to support security analysts’ decisions. However, the […]

Ammonia is crucial for life as a primary element for fertilizer production and it is also a foundational feedstock for pharmaceuticals, dyes, and chemical synthesis. Ammonia has also emerged as an energy carrier and transportation fuel. Plasma-based reactors are potentially operated by renewable electricity sources (wind and solar), offering lightweight, flexible, straightforward on/off switch, and […]

Asthma is an airway disease affecting over 330 million people worldwide. More than >5% of people with asthma experience uncontrolled severe disease despite being treated with high doses of steroids which give them a lot of bad side effects1,2.
