Development and testing of an on-line video game to teach second languages

Copernicus Studios Inc. (CSI; Halifax, NS) is developing LANGA – disruptive LANguage GAming software to help people learn new languages. LANGA uses advanced speech recognition and high-end animation to create a unique and engaging gaming experience. However, LANGA is more than just flash – it has been developed in partnership with the NeuroCognitive Imaging Lab (NCIL) at Dalhousie University. This industrial-academic partnership was forged to ensure that the training programs are informed by research in second language learning, and that LANGA’s effectiveness has been validated in the lab. At present we have developed a proof-of-concept prototype and demonstrated that it is effective in teaching people basic vocabulary in a new language. This Mitacs Accelerate cluster will support three interns — with backgrounds in linguistics, cognitive neuroscience, and computer science — to conduct the additional research and development needed to make LANGA more comprehensive, effective, and market-ready

Training AI Model for prostate tumor reconstruction

Dental Technician COOP

Our company offers modern, high-quality solutions to our patients utilizing technologically advanced solutions. We consist of a main clinic in Lethbridge, AB and a satellite clinic in Coaldale, AB, employing a number of staff over 19 years. Advances in CAD/CAM systems are driving opportunities to explore new workflows and provide an improved patient experience through new methods of manufacturing. The use of digital methods of design and production leads to increased precision and accuracy in manufacturing, reduced turnaround time for patients, cost savings for both the business and patient, consistency and reproducibility, expanded material options, enhanced workflow integration, and better documentation and storage. Although our clinics utilize these advanced systems, technology is always evolving. It is challenging to balance the day-to-day operations in busy clinics with the set up and utilization of these systems to their full potential and investigate new materials and workflows. With the help of a student with recent knowledge from their academic studies, we could set up new equipment and explore and test new workflows with the potential of integrating new processes. This could lead to the clinic’s ability to enhance its current offerings to patients and improve their experience.
