This research explores the untapped potential of locally produced Ontario wool. By processing raw fleece into textiles and studying the characteristics of different sheep breeds, the project highlights how valuable, sustainable materials are being…
2026
This research develops nanobubble-enhanced ultrasound imaging as an accessible alternative to MRI for cancer diagnosis. Tiny gas-filled nanoparticles amplify ultrasound signals and improve image quality, particularly in prostate cancer. The…

This research reinterprets the emotional attentional blink (EAB), arguing that visual distinctiveness, not emotion alone, drives initial attentional capture. Using RSVP experiments, it shows that emotional distractors only impair target detection…
2025
This research used large-scale virtual reality experiments and physiological sensing to study pedestrian stress while crossing streets in the presence of autonomous vehicles. After overcoming major technical challenges in ambulatory VR setup design…

This research explores sustainable building heating using ground source heat pumps. Current systems rely heavily on fossil fuels, contributing to emissions. A novel approach uses helical steel piles as dual-purpose structural and thermal systems,…
2025
This research uses immune cell “molecular fingerprints” to rapidly detect cancer from a single drop of blood. By combining nanosensors and machine learning, subtle changes in B cells can be identified within minutes. The approach offers fast,…

The speaker develops a decentralised communication framework for collaborative robots (cobots). By removing the central server and enabling robots to communicate directly through estimating unknown variables, the system reduces cost, time, and…
This research uses a traffic analogy to explain gas transport challenges in carbon dioxide electrolysis devices. Despite identical porosity, microstructural connectivity determines performance under flooding conditions. Computational modelling…
