The goal of this research is to reduce the risks of recurrence and the treatment side effects for breast cancer patients by combining a new cold plasma technology to the standard of care (surgery and radiotherapy). Cold plasma generates locally specific reactive oxygen species that can kill cancer cells. It could be delivered directly in […]

The proposed research will develop cost-effective substrates for application in Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy. The substrates will be made using self-assembly methods for nanomaterials in aqueous medium and a final step of simple filtration. The nanoscale material will provide high sensitivity as a SERS substrate for detection of specific chemicals and microbes. The developed SERS […]

The current Alpha Sizing system for clothing sizes (S, M, L) has vast inconsistencies. Apart from shopper frustration, the most significant consequence of unpredictable fit is the monetary and environmental cost of unnecessary shipping and logistics. 30% of clothes are returned due to poor fit. The cost of this problem exceeds US$14 Billion annually. Furthermore, […]

The onset of symptoms in Alzheimer’s Disease, Picks disease, progressive supranuclear palsy and cortical basal degeneration are connected to the formation of insoluble deposits of the tau protein in the brain, also known as neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). The Treventis Corporation has developed new chemicals that are designed to prevent the formation of NFT, which may […]

The reliance on raw materials from overseas to build lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is a major concern for automotive companies building battery electric vehicles in North America. Canada’s rich Ni deposits is a potential solution to this problem. However, Canadian Ni ore are sulfides, so battery manufacturers are reluctance to use it due to possible trace […]

The general objective of this MITACS project is to introduce RespirAct (TM) as a unique device that provides a precise, repeatable vasoactive stimulus to extend the capabilities of imaging modalitites such as PET, CT, MRI and ultrasound. In the first project, the development and standardization of the cerebrovascular stress test will provde a means to […]

Ladder Spike inc is a new Manufacturing start-up specializing in ladder safety equipment. The company was registered in February,2021, shortly after joining the Genesis Centre’s program called evolution. Through the program Dale Kean became my fist investor and now business partner, along with  finishing the program and securing a spot in the event called Pitch […]

Le présent projet de recherche vise à outiller et fournir des pistes de solutions concrètes aux entrepreneurs, et plus particulièrement aux fondateurs et gestionnaires de l’entreprise québécoise MOS (9358-3433 Québec inc.), afin de faciliter l’intégration et l’opérationnalisation de la responsabilité et de la durabilité sociale, environnementale et économique à leurs stratégies d’affaires ainsi qu’à leur […]

Algae-C is a company specialized in algal biomass production. It enables on-site production of algae for a wide variety of sectors (aquaculture, nutraceutical, cosmetic and biofuel). To date, many fuels, pharmaceuticals and cosmetic products are extracted from plants. These valuable plant natural products (PNPs) are often produced in low quantities in plants and extraction methods […]

In recent years, with the emergence of online social networks and the growing interest in genetics and biological networks, the research community has been tasked with analyzing knowledge extracted from multi-relational datasets. Such analysis, generally known as Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD), is concerned with the computer aided discovery of useful knowledge in databases. An […]

The airspace will rapidly change in the next 15 years with increased automation of air traffic control, flight path tracking with strong time constraints and big data exchange between the aircraft and ground control for communication. However, little information is available to understand the impact of this transformation on the pilot’s tasks and how to […]
