Détermination de métriques pour l’évaluation de la performance et l’amélioration continue d’un exosquelette pour les travailleurs de la construction

Les blessures ou lésions au travail constituent la deuxième cause la plus importante d’invalidité au monde. Afin d’aider les travailleurs dans leurs tâches et réduire l’exposition aux blessures, l’utilisation d’exosquelettes est une avenue prometteuse. Il existe déjà plusieurs exosquelettes d’assistance pour la production automobile et les industries manufacturières, mais ceux-ci ne sont pas adaptés aux […]

Prise en compte de la couverture de glace sur la modélisation des émissions de gaz à effet de serre des réservoirs hydroélectriques nordiques

G-res est un outil utilisé par plusieurs organisations internationales pour estimer les émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) produites par les réservoirs hydroélectriques. Malheureusement, il ne tient pas compte la couverture de glace, qui a un effet barrière sur ces émissions plusieurs mois par année en milieu nordique. Le présent projet vise à […]

Integrated modelling system for the North Atlantic Right Whale

Our integrated modelling system for the North Atlantic Right Whale (NARW) will help predict the presence of this critically endangered species in the Northwest Atlantic shelf, including the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Gulf of Maine. Our international consortium composed of partners from Canada, the United States and France will develop models based on high-resolution […]

Generation of integration-free, high-quality iPS cell lines from a non-invasive, accessible tissue source, the plucked hair follicle

In theory, hair cells will be reverted back into stem cells and then pushed towards pancreatic progenitor cells to create pancreatic organoids. The goal of the project is to pluck hair follicles from individuals across Canada, cryogenically preserve them and use those follicles towards reprogramming. We want to determine whether or not we can create […]

Development and characterization of antimicrobial Ever-gel for medical textiles

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need to combat infectious diseases and reduce their spread around the world. In particular, bacteria and viruses can survive on many common fabrics for days or even weeks, from which they can be transmitted to people or other surfaces. The proposed research project aims to develop a coating for […]

Investigation of Raman Spectroscopy for Commercial Clinical Chemistry Applications

The project aims to address the issue of the lack of access to basic blood tests in a majority of the world’s population. We will explore the potential of Raman spectroscopy to provide a reagent-less alternative to traditional clinical chemistry methods. By proving that Raman spectroscopy, in conjunction with advanced machine learning, is able to […]

Assessing Climate Change Impacts on the Population and Habitats of Piping Plovers in Prince Edward Island

The proposed research focuses on examining the influence of regional climate variability and extreme weather events on the population and habitats of Piping Plovers in Prince Edward Island (PEI). Correlation matrices between records of population parameters and regional climate conditions will be generated and correlated variables will be tested for significance using t-tests. A passive […]

Define and Implement Digital Go-To-Market (GTM) Strategy and Plan

We are looking to create and implement our primarily digital GTM strategy. We will be incorporating an agile approach: plan-do-check-adjust. Will be very dynamic environment – learning what works and what doesn’t, and quickly adjusting our tactical approaches as more information comes in. There will be a planning component and a doing component to this […]

The Canadian Annual Report Extractor Project (CARE)

Annual reports are an important means of communication for publicly traded companies. They provide information about the firm’s activities and operations over the past year and forecasts about the future. Although digital versions are easy to obtain, there is a lack of technology available to prepare these reports for analysis. We propose to develop a […]
