Wasted food – the result of a linear pattern of producing, under-consuming and disposing of food – is a pervasive problem globally and in Canada, where 58% of the food produced is wasted each year: that’s 11.17 million tonnes of edible food at a value of $49.46 billion (Varney, 2021). Wasted food is a complex […]

Développer et perfectionner une méthode d’étude, d’analyse et d’interprétation du patrimoine architectural moderne. Il s’agit en premier lieu de documenter et de reconnaître les différentes approches conceptuelles, méthodologiques et techniques. Deuxièmement, la démarche vise à élaborer des prémisses, des méthodes et des stratégies opérationnelles pour un projet de conservation et de restauration contemporain. Enfin ces […]

Climate change is changing the distribution of mosquitoes, allowing them to become established in new places, potentially resulting in increased risk of mosquito-borne disease. The recent arrival of the invasive northern house mosquito, Culex pipiens, to Alberta is one such example. This mosquito, a major pest species found natively in Europe, is considered among the […]

In recent years, factors like thermal comfort, indoor air quality, and energy consumption in school buildings have received increasing attention. Lecture theatres and chemistry labs pose significant challenges for HVAC design due to thermal stratification in lecture theatres and ineffective ventilation in chemistry labs, caused by large spaces and pollutant generation, respectively. Despite many studies […]

This research project aims to help the Bank of Canada understand how people in Canada are using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. Cryptocurrencies are becoming more popular, but their prices often have large fluctuations, which can make them risky to use. By studying survey data, the project will explore how Canadians include cryptocurrencies in their investments and […]

The recognition of gut microbiota, its interplay with human tissues and cells, and the signaling pathways they could generate in concrete with together, specially once imposed to gastrointestinal medications, encouraged researchers designing and establishing bioengineered platforms, enable to serve as a discovery tool for developing of microbiome-related therapeutics, monitoring medications combating detrimental effects of antimicrobial […]

The logistics industry faces significant inefficiencies due to lengthy planning and dispatching re-optimization processes, resulting in delays, increased compensations, and suboptimal transit times. These challenges arise from difficulties in assessing resource status, managing incoming requests, and coordinating communication between dispatchers, drivers, and resources. Our smart logistics optimization system leverages real-time data and advanced Artificial Intelligence […]

Breast cancer is a leading cause of female cancer deaths, but early detection significantly reduces mortality rates. Annual mammograms are common for women aged 40 and older, but those under 40 often go undiagnosed. False negatives are a concern, especially with dense breast tissue. Many women with detected lesions or genetic risk experience stress during […]

My technology introduces AsphaDots, a lubricant derived from asphaltenes-based carbon dots. This innovative product aims to address friction and wear issues in steel and related materials, commonly found in sliding, rolling, or contact interfaces in industrial machinery, as well as in natural and biological systems. Water-based lubricants have become alternatives to petroleum-based lubricants in a […]
