Resson, a Fredericton, NB-based precision agriculture company looking to develop a new business process that integrates the three major tasks involved in its product development cycle (client feedback solicitation, software development, and, quality assurance testing). In addition, through the development of this process, Resson will improve the features and functionality of an existing software product […]

L’objectif de ce projet de recherche est de développer une approche permettant de cibler les principaux secteurs responsables des émissions de GES de la région de la Gaspésie, et d’identifier des pistes de solution à intégrer dans un plan d’action régional contre les changements climatiques. L’approche développée pourra être appliquée à d’autres régions dans le […]

The research project identified here falls under the category of “clean energy technology”. Methanobiofiltration (MBF) is a new technology for the treatment of waste methane gas using a biological process, thus contributing to the reduction of the environmental impacts of current energy technologies. The lack of a complete technology package needed for various industry sectors […]

Bicycling has risen in popularity in many cities in recent decades, including Vancouver. However, some potential cyclists face barriers to taking up cycling, including the fact that many older buildings have insufficient bike storage facilities and other issues relating to bike security, building policies, etc. The ‘Cycling Equity and Older Buildings’ project will use interviews, […]

ISBRG is conducting a clinical trial of SpotLight-19©, ISBRG’s diagnostic technology prototype, following receipt of Investigational Testing Authorization (ITA) from Health Canada.

Knotweed (Reynoutria spp.) is listed in the International Union of Conservation 100 worst invasive alien species worldwide and causes extensive environmental degradation and economic impacts in British Columbia and other parts of Canada. Knotweed’s extensive rhizome systems enable to form large patches very resistant to most control methods, and requires repeated herbicide treatments, potentially leading […]

The proposed project will focus on expanding upon existing autofluorescence based cancer screening techniques. In particular, our efforts will be focused on using a dual-spectral approach to extract the intrinsic fluorescence of the sample. Current methods of autofluorescence based oral cancer screening capitalize on the fact that tumorous or pre-cancerous tissue exhibits reduced autofluorescence relative […]

Oil spills are among the most damaging environmental threats to marine ecosystems. To this day, there are several methods for decontaminating marine sites. However, bioremediation (including the addition of specialized microorganisms) is often the best solution from an efficiency and eco-responsibility point of view. However, an important limitation remains regarding the application of this approach, […]

From the survey of literature (Eames et al. (1995), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004b), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004a) and others), the performance of a jet refrigeration system depends greatly on the ejector configuration (characteristics). Many researchers have shown the need to improve performance in order to make ejector-based cooling economically more attractive. It is known that […]

Augmented reality has the ability to revolutionize the healthcare system. Notably, for medical students and doctors. Studies demonstrate that interactive learning is the most effective way for medical information to be disseminated to medical students and professionals. This project seeks to develop an app for women’s sexual health that will assist in physician and medical […]

Block cave mining is generally considered the preferred mining method for deeper and lower grade copper and gold deposits. The body of practical knowledge related to the impacts that mass mining methods have on the surrounding environment is limited by the challenges imposed by the ever-increasing size of caving operations, and the difficulty to transfer […]

This project hopes to offer a new experience to the way people engage and consume video news on social media. By taking a community reporting approach to video sharing, validation and incentivization, this project wants to offer an online news platform with the means to not only validate and verify video news before and while […]
