Design and synthesis of well-defined sphingomyelins by a modular, divergent strategy

In 2021, over 2.2 billion doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines were produced to combat a truly devastating pandemic. Such medications represent the fastest vaccines ever to be developed, with some of the highest efficiencies reported. The above vaccines contain messenger RNA (“mRNA”) trapped inside lipid nanoparticles (“LNPs”), which are globules composed of […]

Business Strategy Intern To Develop Protein Distribution Channels For Spirulina

This project is initiated to shift this company from having developed an advanced algae cultivation platform developed through research, into a commercial enterprise. To achieve this we need to build demand for the algae product (spirulina) within the market place. As we succeed in creating demand, this will trigger the release of funding to continue […]

Blue and green carbon sequestration on degraded ecosystems

The aim of the research is to conduct two studies. The first component is to conduct a robust literature review on methods to estimate above and below carbon in temperate (green carbon), and mangrove ecosystems (blue carbon). This component of the proposed research will be aimed to identify a package of monitoring tools that can […]

Metabolomics Investigation of the human microbiome composition in inflammatory bowel diseases, antibiotic use and diet using an ingestible capsule for sample collection

Recent studies have shown that the gut microbiome works as an organ of the human body. The gut microbiome functions like an endocrine organ producing bioactive metabolites. Since the gut microbiome is in close interaction with the human internal environment and changes in the compositions of gut microbiota can impact host physiology through many pathways. […]

Examining the impact of invasive dreissenid mussels on the health of the St. Lawrence River

When introduced to a region, non-native invasive species often have negative consequences for native plants, animals, and humans. When introduced to North America, the invasive zebra and quagga mussels altered the structure and function of native aquatic ecosystems. This caused ecological and economic damage by reducing biodiversity and human uses of local surface waters, respectively. […]

Acoustic Signals of Beaked Whales

For many whales, we still know little of where they occur and even what species exist. This is true for an elusive group of whales known as beaked whales. One method to study these deep-diving, offshore animals is acoustic recordings. Each beaked whale species is thought to produce a unique sound, called a click. Many […]

Optimisation de trajectoire dynamique pour des robots collaboratifs

De récents changements d’orientation dans la recherche et le développement de la robotique ont conduit au développement de robots collaboratifs sûrs et intuitifs. Pourtant, ces robots sont généralement confinés aux tâches d’automatisation traditionnelles et travaillent en mode non collaboratif. Ce projet de recherche vise à étendre les capacités des robots collaboratifs au-delà des applications d’automatisation […]

The Caregiver Online Psychoeducation (COPE) Project: A Collaborative Response to the Increased Demand for Child Trauma Services

The Child Abuse Services (CAS) at Alberta Health Services previously approached our research team to collaboratively address the lengthy waitlists for children seeking to receive trauma services. Accordingly, an online module was co-developed to provide caregivers with initial resources while their child is on the waitlist. The present research will involve using qualitative research methodology […]
