Bridging Knowledge Gaps for SMEs to Thrive in the Next Normal Economy Hiring and developing skilled workforce talent is a major challenge faced by all companies. However, this challenge is amplified when companies receive a high volume of applicants – particularly where the company is a labor-intensive business, or growing quickly, and or facing high […]

Diagnosis of glaucoma during the early stages is critical to prevent permanent structural damage and irreversible vision loss. Glaucoma is typically detected through an examination of structural damage to the optic nerve combined with measurements of visual function. This research project aims to focus on the development of an enhanced graphical user interface to perform, […]

This research is designed to advance understandings and monitoring of the recreational and Indigenous food salmon harvests and their management within the Central Coast of BC. Further, this collaborative research project is being led by the Central Coast Indigenous Resource Alliance and four partnering First Nations (Heiltsuk, Kitasoo/Xai’xais, Nuxalk and Wuikinuxv Nation) to develop a […]

Kelps are large brown algae that can form complex marine “forests”. Many marine species, including salmon, use these kelp forests as habitat. However, kelps in the Salish Sea have been declining in recent years. This has likely been driven, at least in part, by ocean warming. If we are to predict how kelp losses might […]

Island Abbey Foods (IAF) (also known as Honibe) is a leading manufacturer of honey based candies (lozenges, drops and gummies), which are premier products in the North American market. IAF is interested to investigate the biological activities of honey and other bioactive ingredients formulated in the form of gummies. The manufacturing of gummies requires high […]

Boreal caribou are federally listed as threatened due to widespread population declines. The main cause of decline is predation, which is influenced by human-caused landscape disturbance and climate change. Recent evidence suggests that black bear predation of caribou calves may be hindering the recovery of some caribou populations, but this impact is poorly understood in […]

Synergie Santé Environnement souhaite développer un service d’accompagnement en santé environnementale et développement durable adapté à la réalité des établissements de santé privés (CHSLD, cliniques de chirurgie, cliniques médicales variées) sur la base de sa grande expérience dans les établissements publics. Dans ce contexte, notre projet vise à dresser des portraits spécifiques de la santé […]

Human land use is leading to the decline of many species, such as Canada’s Threatened boreal woodland caribou. Habitat alteration as a result of human land use has degraded predator-prey dynamics, leading to unsustainable predation of caribou. Given the link between caribou declines and habitat alteration, habitat management –protection and restoration – is a critical […]

Gene editing with RNA-guided nucleases based on the CRISPR bacterial defence system (clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats) has revolutionized both basic science and therapeutic applications. However, CRISPR associated (Cas) nucleases are not optimized for all types of gene-editing applications. In particular, the double-strand breaks made in DNA by the Cas proteins are imperfectly repaired by […]

On this project, the use of tethered remotely piloted aircraft systems to protect stone fruit orchards will be explored. The intern sill design and evaluate the performance of such aircraft systems and conduct both ground and in-flight testing of the system. BAAZ UAV will benefit from this technology and the potential deployment to support Canadian […]

Un des gros défis des entreprises culturelles et artistiques est celui de la connaissance de leur public. Cette connaissance est le principal fondement pour la mise en place d’actions marketing pertinentes (Colbert & Dantas, 2019). Certes, les informations fournies par les systèmes de billetterie sont utiles pour la prise de décision. Cependant, ces informations ne […]
