Promoting an integrative landscape approach in vineyards for greater resilience in the face of climatic and environmental changes

Grape growers are increasingly interested in finding strategies to enhance vineyard’s long-term productivity while improving the overall ecosystem health. The market for organic wine is also an incentive that encourages some growers to adopt these practices. Using a landscape approach, we will examine how increased native biodiversity in the vineyards and perimeters can contribute to […]

Enhancing EEG Data Analysis and Brain Health monitoring through Self-Supervised Learning and Corticothalamic Modeling

Sleep is a central function of many species, and is studied widely in neurophysiology and computational neuroscience, yet its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. The common method for recording brain activity during sleep is polysomnography (PSG) which is expensive to operate and can prove to be heavy and bothersome for the recording subjects. In recent years, […]

Evaluating the effectiveness of constructed wetlands in Western Canada for municipal wastewater treatment

In Canada, water security challenges include environmental degradation, water pollution, and climate change impacts. Utilizing constructed wetlands (CWs) for wastewater treatment addresses these issues by offering a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution. It helps mitigate pollution, conserve water resources, and adapt to changing environmental conditions, fostering long-term sustainability. However, given the uncertainty surrounding the effectiveness of […]

Assessing and redesigning Jackleg Hammer Drill for Mining Operation

Drilling is a major operation in the mining industry. Holes are drilled in underground mine structures to insert reinforced steel bars for support and to prevent the mine from collapsing. One of the mining operations is to break mine rocks using explosives into smaller parts that can be transported for further processing. Both cases need […]

CFD study of sediment removal in interceptor-pit for carwash facility

In this research project, the intern will use Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models for multiphase flow to investigate particle deposition in the interceptor-pit of a carwash. Interceptor-pits are designed to remove the suspended sediment in the water that flows through the unit. The study will reproduce the geometry of the interceptor-pit and use numerical simulations […]

Development, and In vitro and In vivo evaluation of thermoresponsive bioreductively-activated nanotheranostics

Cancer management continues to be a global problem (WHO report 2022) – mainly because cancerous solid tumors (found in more than 40% patients, and in all types of cancer) become metastatic, therapy resistant and poor-responding to conventional chemo-/radiotherapy due to a condition called hypoxia (tissue with low levels of oxygen). Due to poor tumor vasculature, […]
