A new revolution in life science research is ongoing since the discovery of the CRISPR/Cas system. With this technology is now possible to specifically and efficiently manipulate the genome of cultured cells, embryos and animals. The technology has many applications in agriculture including the dairy genetic industry to generate the next generation of elite animals […]

Chronic rhinosinusitis is a common condition in which the cavities in the nasal channel become inflamed and swollen. This condition interferes with drainage and causes mucus to build up. Delivery of the positively charged proteins containing short chains locally to the nasal area can be used for the treatment of this problem. This proposal suggests […]

When an individual enters a company, the interaction between the company and individual is expected to increase. If it does not increase to an appropriate extent, the individual leaves the company based on his/her past experience. To avoid huge losses and widespread consequences, a company has no alternative but to decrease its employee turnover rate […]

Meto est une plateforme d’intelligence distribuée qui exploite le plein potentiel du Cloud et des processus collaboratifs entre agents humains dans le but d’améliorer la prise de décision dans des situations minées par le risque et l’incertitude. Pour ce faire, il est nécessaire de mettre à la disposition des décideurs un ensemble pertinent d’information obtenu […]

In an alien or possibly hostile environment, the situation awareness of a remote robot operator will be limited. Map information may not be known beforehand. The site may also be in a dynamic state where changes occur in the surrounding in any moment. The main objective of this project is to develop novel technologies to […]

This is a research and development (R&D) project. The primary objective is to develop a Smart Learning and Course Management System with a pilot demonstration of an entrepreneurship development course. The target audience for the course is students interested in learning the fundamentals of running a startup company. The secondary objective is to document and […]

Traditional research microscopy tools are entirely adequate for conventional static analysis, however, the evaluation of more complex dynamic cellular processes require unconventional methods of acquiring, displaying, and rendering dynamic data. Autophagy occurs when some of a cell’s cytoplasm, referred as cargo, is enclosed by a membrane to form an autophagosome in order to be degraded […]

Les préformes textiles 3D sont de plus en plus utilisées pour fabriquer des pièces composites dans l’industrie aéronautique. Les métiers à tisser 3D de dernière génération ont la capacité de fabriquer des préformes à géométrie très complexe et avec une très grande précision. Le logiciel développé par le Groupe CTT pour contrôler ce type de […]

In British Columbia, highly saline waste water produced as a by-product of oil and gas operations are injected into deep geological formations via injection wells. The purpose of this research project is to investigate whether or not these injected fluids remain at depth as intended or rather, can return to the surface and contaminate water […]

FPInnovations a récemment procédé à l’évaluation de différentes activités biologiques de résidus de plusieurs essences ligneuses canadiennes. Certains extraits ont montré des résultats intéressants au niveau de différentes activités biologiques testées telles que les activités antioxydante, antifongique, antibactérienne, etc. Parmi ceux-ci, les extraits d’écorces de cèdre rouge de l’Ouest (Thuya plicata) ont montré une activité […]

With more and more buildings being controlled by automation systems, one would expect their energy performance to be optimised. This is not the case however. Buildings can still go out of tune, and building operators can become overwhelmed by the alarms sounding from the automation systems, not knowing how to prioritize them. SES consulting is […]
