This project investigates a new perspective on the intersections of architectural form generation, sustainability, building performance simulation and computation, and is meant to research an energy performance-driven building space organization method in the preliminary design phase. It will enquiry clear design questions, and present results using a visualization method that addresses the problem for both […]

The net 5-year survival rate for patients suffering from liver cancer is less then 20 percent and the number of cases is rapidly increasing in Canada. Unfortunately, currently available oral chemotherapies can only extend median survival by 3 – 4 months making the development of new and effective drug treatments critical. The proposed study aims […]

The Centre for the Commercialization of Antibodies and Biologics (CCAB) is working with Empirica Therapeutics (Empirica), a Canadian start-up company focused on developing data-driven treatments for cancer, to address the unmet medical needs of glioblastoma (GBM), the most common adult malignant primary brain tumor. Current therapies are only partly effective, with frequent relapse and poor […]

Au Québec, les fermes marines ayant un intérêt pour l’algoculture sont situées aux Îles-de-la-Madeleine, en Basse-Côte-Nord et en Gaspésie, sur des sites dont les caractéristiques sont très différentes. À cet effet, une entreprise maricole de la Gaspésie, Ferme Marine du Québec, produit commercialement des plantules sur cordes et vend des collecteurs d’algues à des aquaculteurs […]

La fiabilite des alternateurs hydrauliques est un sujet d’importance pour les utilitaires afin d’assurer la fiabilite de I’approvisionnement en energie electrique. La maintenance de ces equipements est donc un outil important dans la gestion et I’exploitation d’un parc d’alternateurs. Apres un certain nombre d’annees de fonctionnement, I’usure de ces equipements peut mener a I’apparition de […]

TAS (Techno Aero Services Inc.) is a Canadian recruitment agency specialized in aeronautics, engineering, and technology. At TAS, candidates currently submit resumes to a database through a web interface. These resumes are then manually processed by recruiters before a suitable candidate is matched to a position. Through this laborious manual process, great prospective candidates often […]

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory disorder of the lung, and one that affects 2.6 million Canadians and 380 million people worldwide. Although the disease affects a large population worldwide the therapies used for treatment remain imprecise. With the lack of disease modifying therapies there is a pressing need to discover novel targets […]

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) is a lung disease that cause a lot of suffering to the Canadian population. To accelerate the drug discovery process, an old blood pressure lowering medication was tested to block the progression of COPD. A patient study showed that the old medication did provide some protective effect to the lung […]

The global seaborne trade is growing rapidly and being supported by shipping, one of the major transportation tools around the world. With the satellite and terrestrial AIS (Automatic Identification System) data, it is possible to track the trajectories of vessels carrying commodities. The capability to accurately forecast the import and export volumes and types of […]

Algae-C is a company specialized in algal biomass production. It enables on-site production of algae for a wide variety of sectors (aquaculture, nutraceutical, cosmetic and biofuel). To date, many fuels, pharmaceuticals and cosmetic products are extracted from plants. These valuable plant natural products (PNPs) are often produced in low quantities in plants and extraction methods […]

The research seeks to develop an easy to use and program SDK in the Unity software framework for the design and integration of expressive haptic effects for a distributed series of worn haptic actuators. The project’s central objective is to develop a cross platform composition tool for designers that makes it easy to integrate haptic […]
