Opening new doors for the development of nanotechnologies in medicine, UdeM scientists recreate two natural mechanisms to better program the timescale of molecular communication and functionality.

A new study shows that artificial ponds created to restore peatlands exploited by humans achieve a balance similar to that of natural ponds, but it takes time.

Using AI, McGill researchers develop method for maple syrup assessment that is easier and faster than lab testing Researchers at McGill University have developed an eco-efficient, user-friendly technology that quickly measures the antioxidant content of maple syrup.

University of Waterloo researchers have made a key breakthrough in developing next-generation batteries that are made using magnesium instead of lithium.

Electric Vehicles will now be able to go from zero battery power to an 80 per cent charge thanks to Researchers at the University of Waterloo who made a breakthrough in lithium-ion battery design to enable this extremely fast charging.

Findings indicate PCBs, DDT continue to pose threats decades after they were banned, even as decline in contamination levels overall testifies to bans' positive impact, researcher said. Killer whales off Canada's Atlantic coast continue to be contaminated with dangerously high levels of toxic chemicals that put them at elevated risk of severe immune-system and reproductive problems, a recent McGill-led study has found.
