Read MoreThis research project regards the rehabilitation programs of stroke patients, and how to improve the understanding of their effectiveness. Although it is recognized that rehabilitation programs help stoke patients with motor recovery, the extent and progression of raw neural adaptation over the rehabilitation process often remains invisible to the physiotherapist, despite the presence of biomedical […]
Read MoreThis project is a collaboration between the University of Victoria and Tecnoquímicas S. A., an industry leader in the production of pharmaceutical and household products in South America. The goal of the project is to psychologically characterize the executive leadership of the company (i.e., CEOs). Specifically, the intern will utilize and further develop her expertise […]
Read MoreOur laboratory has developed an improved model of large scale offshore wind turbines systems for controller design. This model captures all the important dynamics involved in the system such as the 3 dimensional motion, wave disturbance and wind effects, allowing to design advanced control techniques to enhance the efficacy of the wind turbines and increase […]
Read MoreThis UBC-Vancouver research will contribute to the optimization of novel composite bio-mineral products for sustainable agriculture, pollution remediation and other environmental applications, with special emphasis on equipment pilot testing and manufacturing process pre-design, as well as the testing of the product as chicken/fish feed. The core fertilizer products synergistically combine rock dusts, clays, seawater elements, […]
Read MoreInteractio has a plan to build automated sensor packages for boats and recreational vehicles (RVs). The objective of the sensor packages is to measure water level, fuel flow, movement, etc. This project is focused on developing self-contained sensor packages that are rugged, wireless, cost-effective, do not require battery replacements, and can be used to sense […]
Read MoreTargeted cancer therapies have significantly improved the treatment of leukemias, but emergence of treatment resistance and subsequent cancer relapse significantly reduces patient survival. This relapse is primarily caused by the inability of current therapies to eradicate leukemic stem cells. It is currently extremely challenging to study these stem cells, due to its rarity in patient […]
Read MoreDevelopment and use of mobile technologies, in particular mHealth applications, to improve health have exponentially increased in the past decade. Despite the widespread use of apps, there has been astonishingly few scientific evaluations on the efficacy of such products to improve or change health behaviours. The purpose of this research is to systematically evaluate, through […]
Read MoreAn infrastructure has a significant role in the economic growth of a community especially in Canada. The most efficient way of protecting civil infrastructures-such as buildings and bridges- against external loads such as seismic loads is using protective systems such as seismic bracing systems to increase the life-cycle of civil infrastructures, reduce the vibration, and […]
Read MoreRabbits are increasingly recognized for their superior immune response to antigens and their ability to generate highaffinity monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that can be used as reagents, diagnostics and therapeutics. However, methods for the discovery of rabbit mAbs are limited and extremely cumbersome. This proposal aims at developing a rapid and robust microfluidic-based approach to generate […]
