      Chen, Lin Kun (University of Waterloo, 2021-12-23)
      The cornea is the transparent, outermost layer of the human eye that contributes approximately 70% of the refractive power of the eye in air. It is composed of five major tissue layers: the epithelium, the Bowman’s membrane, ...
    • 4150 Cousins: What 7 DNA Ancestry Tests Can Tell You About Your Kin 

      Nadeau, Danielle (University of Waterloo, 2016-01-12)
      This thesis presents the results of seven commercialized DNA ancestry tests that are all available to the public, for under $400 Canadian dollars each. This research is conducted to explore the use of commercialized DNA ...
    • 45-nm SOI CMOS Bluetooth Electrochemical Sensor for Continuous Glucose Monitoring 

      Muthreja, Aman (University of Waterloo, 2018-08-21)
      Due to increasing rates of diabetes, non-invasive glucose monitoring systems will become critical to improving health outcomes for an increasing patient population. Bluetooth integration for such a system has been previously ...
    • A 4d Lorentzian Spin Foam Model With Timelike Surfaces 

      Hnybida, Jeffrey (University of Waterloo, 2010-10-07)
      We construct a 4d Lorentzian spin foam model capable of describing both spacelike and timelike surfaces. To do so we use a coherent state approach inspired by the Riemannian FK model. Using the coherent state method we ...
    • 5-Choosability of Planar-plus-two-edge Graphs 

      Mahmoud, Amena (University of Waterloo, 2018-01-02)
      We prove that graphs that can be made planar by deleting two edges are 5-choosable. To arrive at this, first we prove an extension of a theorem of Thomassen. Second, we prove an extension of a theorem Postle and Thomas. ...
    • 5-HT7 Receptor Neuroprotection against Excitotoxicity in the Hippocampus 

      Vasefi, Seyedeh Maryam (University of Waterloo, 2014-04-11)
      Introduction and Objectives: The PDGFβ receptor and its ligand, PDGF-BB, are expressed throughout the central nervous system (CNS), including the hippocampas. Several reports confirm that PDGFβ receptors are neuroprotective ...
    • 50:50—Sovereignty, Price, Density, Efficiency: Housing-led Economic Urban Expansion in Hong Kong. 

      Tam, Kam-Ming Mark (University of Waterloo, 2015-09-16)
      Hong Kong is an ideal laboratory in which to study relationships between economy and architecture. In this city, tremendous power is held by both the state and in private capital. Urban form may be read as a tangible ...
    • 53 North: Tactical Infrastructure in Edmonton 

      Clayton, Bryce (University of Waterloo, 2017-08-15)
      Edmonton, Alberta is the northernmost major city in North America, but inappropriate urban form has created a winter culture of avoidance. Long, straight city streets and a proliferation of voids within the downtown urban ...
    • 55 + A Landscape of Intergenerational Living 

      Steeper, Keegan (University of Waterloo, 2019-09-20)
      Ontario is experiencing a demographic shift as a significant proportion of its demographic ages. Over the next twenty years it is estimated that the number of seniors aged 65 and above will double. For small urban centres ...
    • 56 Days of Solitude 

      Alladin, Kemal (University of Waterloo, 2016-09-21)
      Man is a social animal. He needs community for support and for the success of his life. Yet, throughout history, man has withdrawn from community to retreat into the wilderness. The journey takes him from the world, into ...
    • 5G Fixed Wireless Access for Bridging the Rural Digital Divide 

      Lappalainen, Andrew (University of Waterloo, 2021-09-22)
      Despite the ubiquitous level of mobile and fixed broadband (FB) connectivity that exists for many people today, the availability of high quality FB services in rural communities is generally much lower than in urban ...
