Transforming Community Economies

Communities across Canada are planning for significant population and job growth. They do this through Official Community Plans and Zoning Bylaws that regulate how land can be used, whether it’s for homes, jobs, shopping, parks, schools, and more. Many of these communities were once established either as trading posts near a wealth of natural resources […]

Calcium Imaging Data Analysis with Interactive Visualization

With recent advances in microscopy techniques for calcium imaging, scientists are now able to monitor the neurons in large brain areas of living animals. However, this also creates significant challenges for scientists who must make sense of the large and complex datasets generated. As a result, there is a need for new componential methods and […]

Solving a new variant of the Resource-Constrained Activity Sequencing Problem

In applications arising in project management, warehouse stock management and project deliveries, several activities that use a common resource need to be executed in a sequential manner in order to keep nonnegative resource levels. As an example, consider newly produced items entering a warehouse, and the items that are demanded by the customers leaving the […]

Development of ventilatory training practices for artistic swimming athletes

In artistic swimming, athletes must perform complex movement routines in the water, while holding their breath for up to 60% of the time, which greatly accelerates the development of hypoxia-induced fatigue. Research shows that hypoventilation training at low lung volumes improves energy metabolism, thereby reducing muscle fatigue and improving physical performance. Furthermore, inspiratory muscle training […]

Inflammatory response of spinal implants

Spinal fusion surgery and the use of spinal implants to mechanically stabilize the spine have significantly increased over the last decade. Octane has developed a proprietary bioactive spinal implant with active remodeling capacity. The immune response to the implant is an important aspect to determine if the implant has any negative (inflammatory response) or positive […]

Study of biological effects of synthetic and natural micro- fibers on marine mussel to inform apparel industry action

Global production and subsequent waste of plastic products, like those in synthetic clothing, has been growing at an exponential rate over the last several decades. Researchers have found polyester microfibers of textile origin throughout the ocean, including the deep ocean and pristine waters of the Arctic Ocean. However, we do not yet know the specific […]
