A complementary paper microfluidics and sample preservation approach for on-site and in-lab assessment of semen quality

We propose to the develop a process whereby a semen sample can be initially assessed for sperm motility on-site
followed by preservation of the remaining sample for transfer to a lab for quantitative sperm quality analyses. A
microfluidic device using paper will be developed for the on-site motility test, whereby the device shows a colorimetric
signal visible to the eye correlating to the percentage of motile sperm from a few drops of semen. For the remaining
sample, a preservation method will be characterized focusing on the idea of drying the sample within a material (paper
or gel) on-site and subsequent rehydration of the dried sample, degradation of the material, and recovery of the sperm
in-lab. This approach can allow for longer term preservation (> 2 days) and safer transfer to the lab. The proposal can
enable a more accurate and available approach for semen analysis.

Developing an AI-Interpretable recommender system for maritime logistics chain

The research project aims to develop a special computer program so called “interpretable recommender system” to suggest the most efficient AI-Interpretable recommender system for maritime logistics chain to transport goods by ship. The program will use advanced math and machine learning to analyze large amounts of data about different ships and their movements. The goal is to help shipping companies save time and money by making more informed decisions. By creating an “interpretable” program, the researchers aim to make it easy for decision-makers to understand how the program makes its recommendations, which will help build trust in the system. The partner organization is expected to benefit from the improved efficiency and cost savings achieved by using the program.

Understanding the Uses and Benefits of Haptic Integration within Virtual Simulations

Healthcare learners use simulations to train their skills prior to treating real patients. These simulations can happen in-person (e.g., role playing) or they can happen virtually using gamified educational software. One drawback of using many of these virtual simulations is that many do not provide the healthcare learner with force-based feedback (e.g., haptics). For example, when cutting in the virtual simulation, the healthcare learner might not learn how much pressure is needed. Furthermore, those that do provide haptic feedback are inadequately researched in terms of how they affect the learner’s educational experience. One company that had made a haptic-compatible virtual simulator is Haply Robotics. The aim of this project is to utilize Haply Robotics technology to see how haptic feedback influences dentistry students’ performance and confidence. We also want to see how this technology is perceived by dentistry students and if it confers benefits over the non-haptic version.

Identification de méthodologies innovantes en gestion du savoir dans un contexte de reddition de services sportifs à l’échelle municipale

Dans le contexte socioéconomique actuel, notamment marqué par une plus grande décentralisation des services municipaux et par les exigences relatives à l’efficacité et à l’efficience des ressources allouées, la gestion du savoir apparaît comme l’un des vecteurs pouvant mener à une meilleure reddition de ces mêmes services.
Le présent projet vise à identifier des méthodes innovantes relatives à la gestion du savoir en contexte de reddition de services sportifs à l’échelle municipale. Du fait des défis inhérent à ce niveau de gouvernement, de la multiplicité des parties prenantes et des disparités socioéconomiques constatées sur le terrain, quels sont les mécanismes de gestion de savoir pouvant permettre l’amélioration des services sportifs et une meilleure reddition de ces derniers? Ce projet voudra répondre à cette question d’importance.

Increasing and Automating Adaptivity of LogicBlox Datalog Platform

Declarative programming techniques have been used to make programming available to common users through introducing query languages such as SQL and spreadsheet programs such as Excel. The proposed industrial partner, LogicBlox, has developed software that enables highly-complex data analysis through the flexible and familiar form of spreadsheet computing. The main goal of this proposal is to increase and automate adaptivity of LogicBlox platform, and to evaluate proposed methodology through applications in local industry. More specifically, we propose to extend LogicBlox Datalog with novel features that allow programmers to augment purely declarative specifications with problem-specific “advice” that directs the underlying solver to the solution. The problem-specific “advice” would automatically produce reasoning procedures that will be embedded into the generalpurpose LogicBlox’s Datalog engine to obtain a special-purpose solver for the problem that is being solved. The problem-specific fine-tuning would greatly increase the solving performance.

Field Testing and Validation of Clearflow Coal Mine Water Treatment Technologies

Surface coal mining creates significant issues in surface water management due to high levels of contaminants including metals, selenium, and suspended sediments. Clearflow group has created a treatment train using newly developed polymer technologies to significantly improve water treatment and reduce contaminant discharge to the environment. This research project will test both the efficacy of that treatment train and the impact on receiving waters at an active mine site over the next two years. This research will significantly advance water treatment options and support growth of a Metis owned Canadian small business.

Rethinking public transit networks using a climate justice lens

Public transit offers both a relatively low GHG-to-passenger ratio and affordable options for local travel in comparison to personal vehicle travel, thusly presenting as a key area for making progress toward climate change mitigation and social justice. Working with stakeholders in the Greater Victoria Area, this project will identify, map, and examine three different new regional transit network scenarios, which respectively align with objectives around (1) climate change mitigation, (2) social justice, and (3) climate justice. Key outcomes of the project will include an analytical framework, toolset, and process for analyzing and remapping transit networks in ways that align with climate and social justice objectives.

Analyse comparative du financement des politiques d’innovation et cartographie de l’écosystème québécois d’innovation

Le projet d’analyse du financement des politiques d’innovation et la cartographie de l’écosystème québécois d’innovation se devise en deux axes :
– Axe 1 : Le projet de recherche vise ainsi à analyser les budgets déposés par les gouvernements du Canada et du Québec en mars 2023 sous la perspective du financement public de l’innovation. En utilisant une analyse comparative, il s’attardera à documenter l’évolution des initiatives existantes, les nouvelles initiatives engagées et à analyser les tendances plus générales de chaque gouvernement en matière de financement public de l’innovation.
– Axe 2 : L’objectif du projet est donc de développer des outils « cartographiques » permettant d’illustrer et de positionner la diversité et le positionnement, dans l’espace et en termes de secteurs de développement, des divers projets structurants d’innovation au Québec. Des méthodes et logiciels d’analyse de texte et de cartographie pourront être utilisées pour mener à bien le projet de recherche.

Crooked Branch Orchard – Growth into Sustainability

Established in 2018 and located in the community of Jamestown on the Bonavista Peninsula, Crooked Branch is a small, high-density orchard, nestled close to the ocean. Growing Nova Spy, Crimson Crisp and Liberty apples in the warm microclimate of upper Bonavista Bay, it is co-owned by John and Valerie Barron and is currently the only commercial orchard in the area. The sales strategies were grassroots and included roadside stands, farmer’s markets, and direct sales from our Facebook page. Crooked Branch need a sales and marketing strategy, a website with online sales capabilities, and help with developing a customer base. With the internship support, it is expected to expand Crooked Branch’s business and generate revenue in the shoulder season with an agri-tourism venture which is popular in other parts of Canada. This can increase Crooked Branch’s impact with community outreach activities
