There are many ways for scientists to study lung diseases. One way that scientists try to understand lung disease is by growing and examining lung cells in the lab. While most cells are grown submerged in special liquid that provides the cells with nutrients, a more sophisticated model is to grow cells in an air […]

Digital advertising is a rapidly growing industry, commonly seen on Facebook and Google. However, most people who start promoting their business with Internet Ads are not professional and experienced marketers. They need help to design and launch ads campaign, especially on writing ads copies. Meanwhile, people have started to embrace AI technologies in the industry […]

The Arctic environment is changing rapidly, and this change may influence the health of organisms that live there, such as belugas. In periods of low sea ice extent, belugas in the Beaufort Sea showed altered expression genes involved in various aspects of health. Further, polychlorinated biphenyls, contaminants of concern, were also associated with altered gene […]

Drug-impaired driving is a growing threat to the safety of road users in North America and Europe. In Ontario, over 10% of the total road fatalities involved drugs and 36% of fatally injured drivers had drugs in their system while driving. Point-of-care testing (POCT) devices, akin to the Approved Screening Device (ASD) test for alcohol, […]

The first part of the project will be to determine the best material to store heat energy produced by the OM solar system. This project will look into the solar energy and heat capacities of various materials. CRE will befit by being able to choose the best material for heat storage in there home. The […]

This research aims to identify different kinds of Canadian small firms on the basis of their owner/managers’ communication behaviour and media preferences. This is in contrast to past practices which identified similarities and differences among SMEs on the basis of sociodemographic variables. Communication behaviour and media choices of SME owner/managers is a key characteristic in […]

La professionnalisation des répondants résultant du recours aux panels web dans les sondages entraine un intérêt accru pour contrôler les erreurs de réponses. Une récente étude révèle que jusqu’à 25 % des questionnaires sont rejetés pour d’apparents motifs d’erreurs de réponses. Ce constat représente un épineux problème, car il mine la confiance envers les résultats […]

This research aims in utilizing agriculture wastes in production of sustainable eco-friendly construction materials for farms building. The mechanical and durability performance of the proposed eco-friendly construction material exposed to the aggressive agriculture environment will be evaluated. The research will investigate the effects of different factors mainly related to physical properties of used wastes and […]

This project, a collaboration between Ryerson University and Pear Square, will be researching what would enable businesses and organizations to provide resources efficiently to students with disabilities. The outstanding issue is mainly a lack of standardized work flow methodologies that promote accessible development from the beginning stages of any project for large institutions. The research […]

Dispersion of various solutes in porous media has been investigated experimentally and theoretically for different scientific purposes. The study of this phenomenon can provide fundamental knowledge of solvent (or gas) flooding in enhanced oil recovery, groundwater contamination, and catalyst-based chemical processes.

COPD is a common inflammatory lung condition that is characterized by airflow limitation and symptoms of cough and shortness of breath. Globally, it affects 384 million people and is responsible for ~4-7% of all deaths. Longitudinal genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are needed to unravel the molecular determinants of dynamic quantitative traits underlying COPD, such as […]

Corrosion is a phenomenon that can be only mitigated, not stop. Usually, paint is applied to the surface that needs to be protected from the environment. Sooner or later, it peals off or wear, leaving the surface unprotected. Besides protection from corrosion, the paint or coating rarely has other properties like being electrically conductive. Another […]
