L’urbanisation est un enjeu pour la santé des écosystèmes et les services qu’ils procurent aux Canadien.nes. Les microbes jouent un rôle important dans le maintien de ces services. On comprend toutefois peu comment ils peuvent être impactés par une augmentation de la surface bâtie et des températures associées à l’urbanisation. Ce projet étudiera la réponse […]

Et si l’ingéniosité humaine et celle des plantes indigènes se rejoignaient dans nos jardins? Le travail qui sera fait au cours de cette Maîtrise aura pour objectif d’identifier des végétaux indigènes qui sont bien sur adaptés au climat local mais qui ont aussi les caractéristiques nécessaires pour les intégrer de façon innovante dans des infrastructures […]

The applicants propose to develop a new glue that surgeons will use to glue broken bones back together instead of using metal implants like screws and plates. Such a product has been sought for decades because of potential benefits to the surgeons and patients, including ease of operation when reassembly the puzzle of a complex […]

This project proposes to lead an international collaborative effort aiming to provide a method based on a scientific consensus to assess water use in Life Cycle Assessment, aligned with the ISO Draft International Standard 14 046 on water footprinting. It will provide industry with a harmonized methodology to compare potential impacts related to water use […]

This project aims to solve a primary problem of 5G/B5G Networks, namely the Service Function Chain (SFC) provisioning problem. This project will improve the solutions for this problem in two aspects. First, the SFC architectures considered in this project are futuristic/generalized ones that do not appear in existing systems. These architectures reduce the processing time […]

Acute stroke is a leading cause of global death and disability. Quick access to robust treatments significantly improves patient outcomes, however, accurate interpretation of diagnostic imaging and effective communication of suspected findings remains a serious challenge for all stroke networks. Circle Neurovascular Imaging (Circle NVI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Circle Cardiovascular Imaging (Circle CVI) […]

The development of a cheap, environmentally sustainable, protein-rich animal feed is of key interest to the growing livestock and aquaculture sectors. Cvictus is in the process of commercializing an integrated low-carbon footprint production platform that can convert coal to methanol, which can then be used to grow a single-cell protein (SCP) animal feed that would […]

Les portes constituent une interface primaire entre les passagers et les trains. Les passagers naviguent de diverses manières pour entrer, sortir et circuler. Ces systèmes fonctionnent généralement comme prévu, mais des dysfonctionnements surviennent et peuvent entraîner des blessures mineures ou catastrophiques. Dans les applications de transport en commun, comme les métros ou les trains légers […]

Chelation Partners Inc. has developed a family of new and highly selective iron chelators such as DIBI. In collaboration with Dr. Hoskin, DIBI is being investigated as a novel anti-cancer agent. Preliminary research suggests that DIBI can selectively inhibit the growth and survival of cancer cells and render them more sensitive to radiation therapy. The […]

The interns will support the development and testing of an archaeological field notes tool called STRATUM. This tool will allow all notes and documentation, usually collected in note books or various handheld devices, to be collected on one digital device like a tablet or phone. The tool development will be guided by the results of […]

Managing traffic through work zones is a highly complicated task where designers need to ensure smooth traffic flow without exposing workers to safety risks. One aspect of effective work zones traffic management involves predicting anticipated delays, understanding their causes, and proactively mitigating those causes. Unlike smooth traffic flow, predicting travel times and delays through interrupted […]

Nutritional supplements are often used by people who are engaged in strength training to augment muscle mass and strength. The leading protein supplement on the market is whey protein. Recent studies have indicated whole-eggs may be very effective for increasing muscle mass and strength, due to the high quality protein in the egg whites and […]
