Hyivy Health and McMaster University are collaborating on a research study around the effects of the Hyivy Therapy Device as a non-hormonal therapeutic for people with endometriosis. The goal is to track the effects on chronic pelvic pain while exploring the impact on quality of life, usability, and sexual function. Results of this study will […]

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the whole world by the spread of a new respiratory virus (SARS-CoV-2), posing a significant burden on the society and the health system. Rapid and selective detection of pathogens, like SARS-CoV-2 virus, in clinical samples, food, water and the environment at large is crucial in diagnosis and breakout prevention. Conventional […]

Le projet consiste à développer des bio-emballages pour des applications de stockage et transport pour les secteurs agricoles et forestiers. Ces matériaux biosourcés permet de substituer les plastiques conventionnels largement utilisés comme des emballages. De plus, les bio-emballages permettent de résoudre plusieurs défis, d’un côté environnemental, de recyclage et de biodégradabilité, mais aussi à l’égard […]

The quest for finding plant protein alternatives to traditional protein sources (e.g., meat, dairy, eggs and soy) used by the food industry is being driven by consumer demand for healthier choices, population growth, environmental sustainability and regulator influencers. Millet represents a staple food for developing countries, especially in Africa and Asia, and represents rich source […]

The technology vertical is rather fragmented. More specifically, solutions providers with offerings such as cloud platforms and managed services oftentimes only offer that one solution. This project will attempt to address the fragmentation of the industry via consolidation of key players. Consolidation and acquisitions can only be achieved by obtaining a certain amount of capital, […]

Two pharmaceutical products for the treatment of neurological diseases developed by Neuractas Therapeutics require fine tuning to enhance their solubility, bioavailability and stability towards relative humidity. Extensive experimental research will be carried out to improve the polymorphic distribution of the products by high through-put crystallization to improve the solubility of one of the products. In […]

The green building movement within building designs has put a spotlight on the application of green technologies to reduce the energy consumption and overall carbon footprint of residential and commercial buildings. In general, approximately half of a building’s total energy usage goes towards heating, cooling, and lighting requirements [1]. According to a recent report from […]

Ce projet a pour but de développer un dispositif permettant d’entraîner les souris de laboratoire à réaliser des mouvements des yeux dans différentes directions. Ce dispositif sera combiné à l’imagerie fonctionnelle et sera utilisé pour la recherche en neuroscience afin d’explorer des pathologies telles que les accidents vasculaires cérébraux ou de développer des neuroprothèses. Ce […]

Recent increased enthusiasm towards Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) coupled with developments in smart sensor technologies and advances in communication systems have resulted in simultaneous incorporation of several advanced monitoring and sensing technologies within manufacturing and industrial sectors. In particular, Industrial Artificial Intelligence, referred to as the IAI, is positioning itself as the transformative technology of the […]

The Optical Logic Gate project is the beginnings of a pivotal part in demonstrating a larger system architecture that will revolutionize the way information is used and moved. The optical logic gate will show a novel method to implement Boolean logic and demonstrate its scaling up to complex computing and switching functions using all optical […]

L’objectif de ce projet de recherche consiste à concevoir un outil de coupe de cheveux et autres pilosités « tout-en-un » de très grande précision, favorisant un usage prolongé et qui soit attrayant et utilisable dans des contextes de coupes variés, tout en assurant au mieux la santé et la sécurité des coiffeurs et des […]
