Avec le « quartier des générations », l’organisme TechnoMontréal réalise une avancée avant-gardiste en ce qui concerne le bien-être de nos aînés. Avec pour mandat de développer un quartier à taille réelle, expérimentant un certain nombre de projets liés à la santé connectée, la présente recherche tâchera de déterminer les forces et failles du présent […]

Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a deadly birth defect affecting 1/5000 children. These children are missing innervation from the enteric nervous system (ENS), resulting in severe constipation and a high risk of bacterial translocation into blood causing premature death. Surgery to remove ENS-devoid bowel is generally life-saving but many children with HSCR continue to have severe […]

Some of the bacteria present in healthy lungs protect the lung against harmful germs. Studies have shown that people with lung diseases often lack these “good” bacteria in their lungs. Our team has been demonstrated that breathing polluted air causes lung inflammation, which can make it hard to breathe, especially for people who have lung […]

Nouvelle technologie pour la prevention d’accidents de travail pour ameliorer la sante et la securite des employes au sein des usines. Utilisation de la gamification pour la formation des mesures preventives de sante et securite au travail permettant d’offrir des contenus interactifs et ecologiques (immersifs). Cette plateforme permet la mise en pratique des nouvelles procedures […]

Cloud computing allows consumers to reduce the costs associated with the purchase and maintenance of computing infrastructure, platform and software resources by exploiting on-demand resource provisioning and pay-per-use payment models. Although, cloud computing has offered significant benefits to the IT indistry, the research on cloud computing is currently at its infancy, with many issues still […]

In order to help deal with COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need for development of fast, reliable, and sensitive tests that will be capable of detecting IgG and IgM proteins directly in people’s blood. Our novel test for detection of IgG and IgM proteins in the blood offers several major advantages compared to other […]

This project is about using artificial intelligence to interpret agricultural remote sensing data. We will develop new means to integrate repeated imagery data of targeted agricultural fields to pinpoint agronomically significant anomalies (e.g., water or nutrient stress, crop pathology, weeds, etc.) and provide field managers easy to follow recommendations guiding development of the most cost […]

This project will be comprised of exploratory research as well as independent research with various mobile location based technologies. The first component of the project will involve working with an existing home automation platform called iControl (www.icontrol.com). The second component of the project will be the development of a “Family Finder” mobile application that interacts […]

The overall objective for this project is to support the research of one PhD student to advance the methods for modelling energy-climate policies, a field in which START in the School of Resource and Environmental Management at SFU is one of the leading research units in the country and in which Navius Research Incorporated is […]

Ce projet vise à utiliser des techniques de traitement automatique des langues naturelles et d’exploitation de données textuelles afin d’aider à prédire le contexte législatif dans lequel les entreprises oeuvrent. Nous espérons ainsi réduire le risque relié à l’incertitude entourant la législation en la prédisant le mieux possible.

Pathogenic infections are responsible for approximately 60% of all hospital acquired infections. In order to help stop the spread, high contact surfaces require chemical additives that sense and respond to the presence of pathogenic bacteria quickly, and neutralize their threat. We are proposing a new form of antimicrobial that can be used as safe, green […]

As increasing international competition and environmental pressures, Canadian oil sands producers must develop new technologies to more competitively deliver their product to market that have lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Flow Control Devices (FCDs) are one such technology. These devices are placed in the injection and production wells and enable more efficient access to the […]
