Zbigniew Pasek and Marzieh Mehrjoo look at some clothing articles from Zara. The researchers studied how much product variety "fast fashion" manufacturers can introduce into their lineup before it becomes a losing proposition for them.
Researchers have developed a model that will help people figure out how much product variability it can introduce before it becomes a losing proposition.
Grad student Heather Christiansen holds up part of a jaw bone from a great white shark.
It would appear, at least for now, that the great white shark population in the northwest Pacific Ocean has remained fairly stable over the last 60 years. Heather Christiansen would like to keep it that way.
Keara Stanislawczyk is shown here in the lab where she'll use traditional taxonomic methods to analyze the water fleas she will catch in the Hamilton Harbour this summer.
Keara Stanislawczyk will spend a good part of her summer bobbing around in Hamilton Harbour trying to find tiny microscopic water fleas.
PhD student Dave Yurkowski pulls a ringed seal into a boat in Resolute Bay, Nunavut.
Mention seals to most Canadians and chances are their minds will immediately jump to the variety of harp seals that are controversially hunted on the east coast.
But the lesser known ringed seals are just as important to Canada’s Arctic, and a PhD student in the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research is devoting his research to studying their behaviour and how it may be changing as a result of climate change in the north.
Xiaomin Lu works on one of her experiments on her recent trip to India.
Coming to Windsor might have been the best move ever for a young Chinese engineering graduate student who’s trying to improve the performance of hybrid electric vehicles.
“It’s been really good for me,” said Xiaomin Lu, a PhD student who will soon return to Windsor after a productive six-week trip to India to conduct more research. “If I had stayed in China, I never would have had the opportunity to experience so much.”
Human kinetics recently launched a new PhD program and the first cohort of students are beginning their research programs. From left are Kristy Smith, Matthieu Hoffman, Michelle Guerrero and Kelly Carr.
Kate Paquin followed the progress of 10 stroke patients who played Wii video games twice a week over an eight week period.
Grad students John Murray, left, Suzanne Ali and Michael Hatten conducted research to learn more about how varsity football players' knowledge and attitudes about concussions influenced their behaviour.
Despite being aware of the long-term consequences of concussions, some football players are willing to continue participating because they’re able to rationalize putting their sport ahead of themselves.
Those were among the findings of a trio of first-year masters students in kinesiology who presented their work yesterday, the final day for their research methods course.
Farrah Chan is currently in South Africa for a workshop at the Centre for Invasion Biology.
Justin Mychek-Londer is shown here on the banks of the Detroit River. He's one of nine graduate students who received scholarships from the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
