A Synthetic Biology Approach to Bacteria Mediated Tumor Targeting
(University of Waterloo, 2014-12-22)Development of a drug delivery agent that selectively targets and destroys tumor cells with minimal toxicity to normal tissues is a major challenge in cancer therapy. It has been known for more than 60 years that anaerobic ... -
Synthetic Correlated Diffusion Imaging for Prostate Cancer Detection and Risk Assessment
(University of Waterloo, 2023-08-31)Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common form of cancer among men worldwide and the most frequently diagnosed cancer among men in 112 countries. While the overall 5-year survival rate for prostate cancer is very ... -
Synthetic quorum sensing in model microcapsule colonies
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017-07-24)Biological quorum sensing refers to the ability of cells to gauge their population density and collectively initiate a new behavior once a critical density is reached. Designing synthetic materials systems that exhibit ... -

Syntrophic interactions between anode-respiring bacteria and non-anode-respiring bacteria in microbial electrochemical cells
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-19)Microbial electrochemical cells (MECs), a promising technology for recovering value-added products from waste biomass and wastewater, require syntrophic interactions between anode-respiring bacteria (ARB) and non-ARB for ... -
Syntrophic Waters: A Vision for (Co-)Productive Marine Conservancy
(University of Waterloo, 2018-09-28)The twentieth century witnessed a dietary shift in Japan, which resulted in greater consumption of exotic seafood species that occupy high trophic levels. This, along with the industrialisation of commercial fisheries and ... -
System and plankton metabolism in the lower Grand River, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2008-12-23)Currently our understanding of both system and phytoplankton metabolism in large rivers is somewhat limited. Knowledge of the metabolic balance in such systems is necessary not only for proper management of the river itself, ... -
System Development and Evaluation of a Social Robot as a Public Speaking Rehearsal Coach
(University of Waterloo, 2023-12-11)Skills are developed through practice and rehearsal. Mastery and leadership often arise from dedicated effort. Among the skills that demand ongoing attention and practice, public speaking holds a crucial place. It is a ... -
