Empirical Analysis of Urban Redevelopment in Toronto using Satellite Imagery, 2015 – 2023

This project explores how and why building heights have changed across Toronto between 2015 and 2023. Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and building footprints, the intern identifies where redevelopment happened – that is, shorter buildings rebuilt and replaced by the taller ones. The project also looks at factors that may explain these changes—such as geographic locations, housing price risk and rent gaps —by applying urban theories and statistical models. The goal is to better understand the patterns and drivers of urban redevelopment in Toronto.

This research will support Resimate by contributing insights into locating where future building growth is likely to happen and why. These findings can help improve Resimate’s products and expand their tools to work with more cities in the future.

Honouring the Waters: Elk Lake

The Clear Seas Indigenous Internship Program aims to provide support to First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities across Canada by helping them build the necessary internal capacity to research and protect their territories through a reimagined internship program. Clear Seas provides mentorship to the interns and uplifts existing internal capacity within Indigenous communities. The Clear Seas Internship Program is tackling the real-world impacts of marine shipping on Indigenous communities, with significant cultural, social, and economic consequences. While shipping is vital for trade and economic growth, it often disrupts marine ecosystems, interferes with traditional fishing and hunting practices, and undermines Indigenous governance structures. This project’s scope is to be a leader for a more holistic, respectful, supportive, responsive, equitable, and inclusive relationships between Indigenous communities and marine ecospheres through co-produced research spaces. The research centres around the marine ecosphere as Clear Seas can leverage their vast network of marine-related industries and partners. The knowledge developed through these projects will inform future Clear Seas research and guide marine-related policy and strategies.

Comparative effectiveness, and network meta-analysis of pre-insulin oral hypoglycemic drugs in the treatment of type II diabetes

The proposed project is two-phased. The first phase involves a study that will use specialized research analysis
techniques to compare the effectiveness of pharmaceutical drugs used to treat type II diabetes and to identify if a
group of drugs are producing similar benefits in terms of controlling the disease. The applicant’s clinical and
epidemiological background would bring value to our study design for this and future projects. The second phase
involves economic cost modeling that will forecast financial implications of study findings. Redwood Outcomes has
extensive expertise in economic cost modeling in-house, although it is not a service that we currently offer to clients.
As the partner organization, Redwood would benefit from this project as test case for the expansion of our service
offerings to include economic cost modeling to clients as a natural extension of current services. Mitacs management
training would be valuable in grooming in-house research management capacity.

Initial Safety Risk Assessment of Hydrogen–Natural Gas Blends in Pipelines: A Case Study in Québec

This project assesses the safety of blending hydrogen with natural gas in Québec’s pipeline network, which is a
crucial step towards Canada’s transition to cleaner energy. During a 13-week research internship, the project will
identify safety risks, such as material degradation and explosion hazards, using risk assessment tools like HyRAM+.
The anticipated benefits are twofold: Université de Sherbrooke will enhance its research capabilities in process safety
and hydrogen technologies. Universidad Industrial de Santander will help advance expertise in industrial risk
assessment. This collaboration aims to strengthen research capacity at both institutions and promote future joint
projects.

A Digital Platform for Enhanced Vision Care Delivery

The Oakville Centre for Vision (OCV) is committed to advancing optometric care by streamlining refractive procedures, a critical yet often inefficient component of private practice operations hampered by inconsistent protocols, uneven clinical training, and fragmented management systems. In collaboration with Sheridan College’s Centre for Applied AI (CAAI), the Refraction Co-Pilot Platform project will deliver an integrated digital solution featuring three core modules: (1) a dynamic educational hub in advanced refraction techniques (2) real-time operational dashboards; and (3) marketing and lead-generation tools. The project will produce a scalable technological backbone equipped to evolve alongside practice needs. Upon completion, the Refraction Co-Pilot Platform will empower clinicians with standardized education, data-driven decision support, and enhanced patient communication capabilities, resulting in more efficient workflows, reduced procedural errors, and higher levels of patient satisfaction, positioning OCV at the forefront of innovation in optometric care.

Interface de gestion d’un système modulaire capable de s’adapter aux flux variés de traitement de la remise à neuf de souliers pour en augmenter la circularité

Trolet cherche à standardiser la remise à neuf et la vente de chaussures uniques, chacune variant en matière, couleur, taille, marque et état. Actuellement, aucun ERP ne répond à cette problématique spécifique, ce qui freine la revalorisation d’articles uniques et limite l’impact écologique positif de l’industrie de l’habillement.
Le projet vise à développer une interface de gestion modulable pour optimiser le suivi et le traitement des chaussures revalorisées. Harry et William sont mandatés pour créer une application Fullstack permettant d’assurer la traçabilité complète des paires acquises par Trolet. Cette application devra documenter chaque étape du cycle de vie des chaussures, intégrer des données externes en temps réel et offrir une interface ergonomique pour les opérateurs.
Les principaux défis incluent la gestion d’un système modulaire adapté aux divers flux de traitement et l’optimisation des performances pour des mises à jour instantanées des stocks. L’application, conçue comme un tableau de bord interactif, permettra de suivre l’évolution de chaque chaussure depuis son acquisition jusqu’à sa vente.
