Wilson and Krylov, Millisecond Hydrogen Deuterium eXchange (msHDX) mass spectrometry and Kinetic Capillary Electrophoresis (KCE), to provide a high-detail picture of Jazz Pharmaceutical’s candidate, including […]

High-level control strategies, commonly referred to as Motion Cueing Algorithms (MCA), are used to create realistic perception of unrestricted 6 degrees-of-freedom (DoF) motion with a motion platform that has fewer DoF and a limited workspace. For instance, such an algorithm would tilt the platform towards back to emulate forward acceleration on a platform that does […]

The care and safety of Persons Living with Dementia (PLWD) within assisted living and other communal living models is extremely important. One key symptom of dementia is disorientation for time and/or place and this can lead to wandering behaviours for residents. Overnight in care homes, the limited is focused on required resident care cannot watch […]

To support blue hydrogen economy processes that generate CO2 as a by-product, and greenhouse gas (GHG) sequestration studies in general, the injection and storage of CO2 into deep (~1500m), un-minable coal seams hosted in the Mannville Formation of Alberta will be studied. A vertical (pilot) well will be drilled, cored, and completed in the target […]

Despite growing concerns about the number of overweight and obese cats and dogs there has been little success in reducing the prevalence of pet obesity. The veterinary industry and prominent pet care companies, including Royal Canin, have indicated that reducing the prevalence of pet obesity remains a priority to protect the health and wellbeing of […]

Les risques extrêmes des chaines d’approvisionnement sont des événements caractérisés par une fréquence faible et un impact très élevé : catastrophes naturelles (tremblement de terre, tsunami ou inondations), catastrophes industrielles (Incendies, explosions…), ou grèves. Les épidémies représentent un cas particulier des risques extrêmes des chaînes d’approvisionnement, avec un impact très fort et immédiat sur la […]
