Suivis expérimentaux en hydrologie et sur les végétaux du watersquare Fleurs-de-Macadam à Montréal

Le watersquare Fleurs-de-Macadam, récemment construit à Montréal dans l’arrondissement du Plateau Mont-Royal, intègre plusieurs infrastructures visant à drainer les eaux pluviales ruisselant sur les rues adjacentes, dont une dépression minéralisée servant de place publique au centre et des zones de biorétention aux abords. Ces dernières sont des ouvrages consistant à utiliser le sol et les végétaux afin de retenir, traiter et infiltrer les eaux pluviales. Ce type d’aménagement fait partie des outils à la disposition des municipalités pour réduire et traiter les volumes d’eau de ruissellement tout en assurant d’autres services écologiques. Cependant, afin d’assurer ces bienfaits, il est nécessaire d’implanter adéquatement les végétaux et de vérifier la configuration technique prévue pour la gestion des eaux de ruissellement à accueillir et à traiter.

Psilocybin dosing and adult neurogenesis

Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound that alters states of consciousness to allow free imagination and insightful creativity. Its ability to induce complex behavioral and psychological changes has led to its resurgence in psychedelic-enhanced psychotherapy. Despite positive clinical efficacy from a
handful of trials, an optimal (or even variable) treatment paradigm has yet to be established. Here, in partnership with Zylorion, a psychedelics-based biopharmaceutical company, we will test different doses and treatment paradigms, to be followed by testing in mice major depression models and
eventual clinical validation in individuals suffering from mental health conditions.

Geospatial Artificial Intelligence Algorithms for Automating Manual Observation Associated with Wheat Production

The grain sector is a key driver of Canada’s economic growth, with more than 20 million tons of wheat exports and over $20 billion in export sales annually. Many activities required for wheat production rely on laborious manual observation, such as post-harvest assessment of wheat kernels and wheat head detection. These manual, subjective tasks can be costly, unreliable, and inaccurate. Regardless, they are essential to the success of farmers, breeders, researchers, and buyers of wheat alike. This project aims to research and develop customized and novel object detection algorithms and geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI) algorithms to automate several manual observations required for wheat production. This project pursues a greater level of automation and precision in agriculture to drive efficiency and productivity, and to establish Canada as a global leader in agricultural automation. The project will reduce manual observational requirements, and increase productivity, profitability, sustainability, and competitiveness for Canada’s agricultural producers.

Optimisation d’un BMS (Battery Management System) pour des applications aéronautiques

La transition énergétique vers des systèmes de propulsions électriques s’accélère. Les batteries sont aujourd’hui des sources d’énergie essentielles aux véhicules y compris les drones. Cependant, la densité énergique limitée des packs de batteries combinée à la forte demande mondiale de cette source d’énergie sont des facteurs qui empêchent le prix de réduire rapidement. Afin d’augmenter l’efficacité globale du pack et sa durée de vie, l’on voit apparaitre de nos jours des packs avec des cellules dont la connectivité est reconfiguration dynamiquement. Cette adaptabilité, si elle est bien effectuée, contribue inévitablement à solliciter les cellules selon leur état de charge et surtout selon leur état de santé.
Ce projet de recherche et développement vise donc à démontrer les gains potentiels d’un pack de batteries au lithium dont l’architecture de connectivité est reconfigurable en temps réel. Il s’agira de démontrer le potentiel d’augmentation de la charge utile du pack tout en préservant sa durée de vie.

La vie médiatique des communautés citoyennes engagées

Comment une communauté engagée, à petite échelle, peut-elle prendre vie par et à travers les médias? Partout dans le monde des groupes de citoyen·nes engagé·es pour diverses causes font exister leur action à travers des objets médiatiques. Avec des pages Facebook, des comptes Instagram, mais aussi des infolettres, des zines ou des podcasts, ces groupes font connaitre leurs enjeux, rallient des nouveaux·elles membres ou des sympathisant·es, s’informent les uns les autres, militent, partagent, discutent — en d’autres termes, on peut dire que leur existence est médiatique. Au-delà de la simple diffusion d’information, l’appropriation de certains médias par des citoyen·nes peut aussi agir comme activité émancipatrice. Certaines de modalités médiatiques sont très efficaces, mais ne permettent pas nécessairement de rejoindre, de sensibiliser ou de mobiliser tous·tes les citoyen·nes : l’accès aux plateformes numériques, par exemple, se répartit dans les populations au gré de diverses fractures sociales pré-existantes (en termes de revenus, d’âge, de genre, d’origine ethnique ou culturelle, de langue, etc.), et la question de l’accessibilité et de l’inclusivité de ces existences médiatiques se pose donc.

Commercialization of a Cooling System for Shipping of Biological Samples

Tricca Technologies is a spinoff company of the University of Alberta that is making a small cooler system for shipping small numbers of chemicals or biological samples. Currently, biological samples are often shipped using dry ice to ensure they remain cold during transit, this greatly increases shipping costs meaning it is usually only economically viable to ship large numbers of samples at a time. However, with a small, reusable cooler system to send or receive samples the shipping process can become affordable.
Tricca has developed a prototype device for keeping 5-10 biological samples below 4 degrees for over two days. Tricca is seeking a business intern to develop a business plan for commercializing this technology, including competitive analysis, costing, manufacturing options, and a plan for initial sales.

Exploring Ways to Leverage the 2026 Wheelchair Basketball World Championships to Achieve Wheelchair Basketball Canada’s Strategic Objectives

It is well-documented that strategic leveraging of sport events is necessary for long-term positive outcomes to occur. However, leveraging remains challenging in practice as the operational demands of event hosting may be prioritized over ancillary programs and initiatives. Wheelchair Basketball Canada is hosting the 2026 Wheelchair Basketball World Championships and has aligned broader organizational strategic objectives (such as growing sport opportunities for Canadians with disabilities) with hosting the 2026 event. Therefore, the goal of this project is to develop and propose an initial leveraging plan for the 2026 Wheelchair Basketball World Championships so that organizational objectives may be met. This partnership will offer the partner organization additional support for achieving leveraging goals and may provide insight into successful leveraging strategies for future sport event hosting. As sport events are often, at least in part, publicly funded, ensuring that events are used strategically for broader outcomes is essential for sustainable event hosting in Canada.

Strategic Sport Development: Assisting Wheelchair Basketball Canada to develop strategies to attract new participants to their sport

Wheelchair Basketball Canada is the national governing body for wheelchair basketball in Canada (Wheelchair Basketball Canada, 2022). Wheelchair Basketball Canada has developed a new strategic plan that include grassroots development as a strategic pillar. Specifically, and in support of a wider need to improve awareness and access to sport opportunities for people with disabilities (Misener & Darcy, 2014), Wheelchair Basketball Canada has developed strategic objectives around the “Awareness” and “First Contact” stages of their long-term athlete development (LTAD) model (Wheelchair Basketball Canada, n.d.). Participation in these introductory stages had become stagnant, and an emphasis within this strategic pillar is to diversify target markets to reach new audiences. Thus, this project will help Wheelchair Basketball Canada innovate their marketing practices to: (1) understand the target markets currently reached by existing marketing practices, (2) identify new target markets, and (3) develop strategies and tactics for reaching these new target markets.
