Open data initiatives, i.e., initiatives that aim at developing and managing data that are open for all and are free to use, re-use or redistribute, have recently multiplied thanks to the growing availability of digital technologies and trends such as open sourcing. Often, open data initiatives are spearheaded by large organizations and institutions - such as cities and governments 鈥� that have access to large pools of technical and financial resources. The potential for open data initiatives for conservation missions (i.e., for missions associated with conserving the environment in specific locations and enhancing the sustainability of the planet) is particularly high because open data can help target conservation practices, analyze environmental data, and share best practices and knowledge among conservation actors. Yet, so far, open data initiatives for conversation missions have been rare. The reason for this is that many critical conservation missions are spearheaded by environmental non-profit organizations that operate in parts of the world where conserving earth resources and protecting biodiversity is particularly important. Environmental non-profit organizations do not usually benefit from access to ample technical and financial resources for projects such as open data initiatives that can help their mission but are not directly their mission. The faculty fellows will participate in a review of open data initiatives by environmental non-profit organizations.

There are two firms of legal status available to newly created firms in France: SARL (a "rigid" status that entrepreneurs cannot change) and SAS (a "flexible" status that entrepreneurs can customize). We study a 2009 reform that made it easier for entrepreneurs to use the flexible status. Our question is: is it a good thing to offer flexibility to entrepreneurs? Do entrepreneurs take advantage of this flexibility to make their firms grow more, or do they make mistakes when defining their legal status? This project will contribute to an academic paper that will shed light on the real effects of firm legal status, and on the financial literacy of entrepreneurs.

In an era in which professions are seeing a rupture of their credibility, some have argued that the architectural profession is in a state of crisis, locked in an ongoing struggle to establish professional legitimacy. This research project utilizes archival and ethnographic data sources to detail the threats faced by the Canadian architecture profession, and how the profession has evolved based on perceived threats. Specifically, this project will involve archival data collection, coding and analysis, along with topic focused literature reviews. The ethnographic data for this study is continually being collected, and the fellow may have the opportunity to observe meetings and experience the fieldwork process alongside the lead researcher. Additionally, the fellow will have an opportunity to gain skills in graphic representation, visualization, and system mapping. This research seeks to understand how mature professions evolve, or are deprofessionalized by the changing field that surrounds them.

Many inherently spatial questions in the social sciences are hard to answer because of incompatible data sources. Solving said incompatibilities involves solving both the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem and the Zoning Problem; but the processes for doing so are complicated and rarely scalable. Our goal is to leverage the H3 libraries, originally developed by Uber, as a common translation standard between geospatial data sources. We will be developing several libraries for common statistical languages like R, which will speed up this sort of work by several orders of magnitude. This work could potentially drastically lower the barriers to entry for geospatial social science.

In resource-constrained contexts, technology has often been proposed as a way to do more with less or to improve efficiency and effectiveness. In healthcare, attempts to introduce technologies such as EHR, telehealth, robotics, artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics, have been welcomed and the promised digital transformation implicit in slogans such as 鈥渢he hospital of the future鈥� is well under way. Yet, these promised transformations have faced difficulties and the sector remains one of the least computerized of the economy (Jones et al., 2019). Indeed, technological change often does not unfold as planned. This project involves two in-depth longitudinal field studies to explore how AI technologies participate in efforts to improve the coordination of care delivery in two leading Canadian hospitals. The first study focuses on how AI and data technologies affect staffing and coordination of trauma care at a leading trauma center in Quebec. The second study focuses on the introduction of an AI-based schedule optimizing system to improve the coordination and throughput of Operating Rooms (ORs) at two leading Canadian hospitals.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) from developing countries pursue increased sustainability as suppliers in global value chains. However, they encounter major financing barriers to implement sustainable strategies. Impact investors with social and environmental investment goals target investing in firms engaging in sustainable production in developing countries. This project explores the strategies of impact investors from the plural sector. We will examine the impact investing models and strategies that not-for-profit organizations use to support the sustainability strategies of SMEs in value chains.

To address a long-standing concern about racial and gender pay disparities, several U.S. state governments have enacted a pay transparency mandate that requires local employers to include information about the expected salary of the position advertised in all their job postings. However, little is known about the potential harm and pernicious consequences of the regulation. The objective of this project is to analyze the unintended impact of the price-focused disclosure mandate on the quality of workplace practices. This project aims to contribute to the literature by documenting a novel price-quality trade-off. Also, this project can provide important empirical facts and therefore advance our understanding of policy effects, both ex-ante and ex-post. In this regard, this study can inform policymakers in assessing the cost-benefits of the pay transparency rules and designing effective regulations in the future.

Parallel with growing stakeholder attention to human capital management (HCM), this research project investigates how companies approach the HCM disclosure. Specifically, it tackles two questions that remain underexplored in finance and management research: 1) what claims do companies make in addressing HCM details? and 2) what factors might account for the presence of such claims? This project benefits from recent amendments issued by the Securities Exchange Commission that include the requirement of the description of a registrant鈥檚 human capital resources. The research team will collect and analyze the 10-K and proxy statement filings to address those questions.

Although general public finds out the occurrence of financial misstatement at the point when the announcement is made by the firm, corporate insiders (i.e., CEOs, CFOs, board of directors, and audit committee members) normally become aware of the upcoming mishap way before the official disclosure of the negative event. This study aims to investigate what are the timely approaches taken by executives to prepare for the unfavorable incident which may have huge negative consequences towards the firm and also towards their personal careers. The faculty supervisors and fellows will try to find interesting answers to this question through examining (1) director turnovers, (2) change in general council, (3) legal expertise hiring, (4) window dressing activities (i.e., CSR), (5) compensation package, (6) purchasing D&O insurance, and (7) financial reporting behavior. This work not only contributes to academic literature, but also provides valuable insights to practitioners, investors, and regulators.

Social network analysis (different from social media) is a tool to quantify and analyze relationships among individuals in a social system. It is a powerful tool that goes beyond individual-level analysis students commonly encounter in statistics classes. Most statistics is based on an assumption of independence. Social network analysis embraces interdependence. This tool can help reveal social processes that are overlooked by individual-level analysis. This project uses social network data and network analysis to understand processes that give rise to inequalities (gender, racial/ethnic, disability, and more) in workplaces.

According to the World Health Organization (2019), those exposed to loud sounds in social settings for a period of 20 years and over are more than three times at risk of hearing loss compared to those unexposed, and 5鈥�10% of listeners are likely to develop hearing loss. Studies have shown that young musicians are particularly at risk. Thanks to a joint partnership between 看片视频, ETS and UdeM, an inexpensive, personal noise exposure set of tools, targeted at youths, musicians and others without a technical background, is now available, at the Marvin Duchow Library (看片视频), to help counter the growing trend of Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). The Hearing-Care Platform aims at raising awareness of, and promoting, hearing care in youths by applying cutting-edge research on the development of practical and accessible noise exposure self-assessment tools. The platform consists of three components: a listening-level measuring kiosk, a smartphone-based noise measurement app, and a companion web server. Noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) is permanent and irreversible, but generally progressive and preventable. By reducing NIHL, the hearing-care platform will have a positive impact on societal cost, especially given the negative effects NIHL has on social withdrawal, mental health and academic performance.
