The main objective of this project is to investigate the performance of LiN-cryogenic technologY, as well as, high pressure cooling (HPC) in turning of hard-to-cut aerospace materials. The performance of cryogenic machining and HPC will be compared to flood coolant to establish the optimum conditions for each cooling technique, in terms of material removal rate, […]

Cryogenic treatment will be considered as a promising process to attain better mechanical properties and higher wear resistance. Previous researches have shown very bright perspectives in achieving significant improvement in mechanical properties and wear resistance of tool steels However, a cohesive picture about what exactly modifies microstructure at cryogenic temperature does not exist. In addition, […]

The Medventions Atlantic – NL program is based on the proven model from Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre which enables high-performing students and recent graduates from diverse academic backgrounds to engage directly with frontline clinical and innovation challenges. The interns are embedded within clinical environments to identify unmet needs, apply early-stage innovation thinking, and co-develop solutions […]

This project explores a flexible biotechnology platform that converts greenhouse gas emissions and industrial residues, such as methane and crude glycerol, into valuable biomaterials like PHB, using microbial cultures under high-density fermentation. During the internship, market research and interviews will be conducted to identify potential partners and early adopters, evaluate where the platform creates the […]

This project aims to advance real-time quality control in printed and flexible electronics manufacturing through the development and simulation of resonant metasurfaces. The work supports the commercialization of the TRAQC system—an AI-driven, terahertz-based inspection platform designed for in-line defect detection and material characterization. The research focuses on designing printable metasurface patterns made from different conductive […]

Cette recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre de la préparation de la future mission satellitaire canadienne Terrestrial Snow Mass Mission (TSMM), élaborée par l’Agence Spatiale Canadienne ainsi qu’Environnement et Changement Climatique Canada (ECCC) et permettra de mesurer l’équivalent en eau de la neige à l’échelle nationale grâce à un radar qui analyse la rétrodiffusion du couvert […]

Music is a fundamental part of human culture and day-to-day lives, but largely exists only as an accent in modern games. While arguably music can deepen and intensify in-game experiences, music is rarely an integrated part of the available mechanics in game worlds. Unlike any other MMORPG or music-based game currently available, this project will […]

Biofouling is the unwanted accumulation of proteins and microorganisms on wetted surfaces. Accumulation of biofoulers on sensors and microfluidic devices greatly impairs their performance in assessing the physical, chemical, and biological condition of natural and processed water. Failure to obtain accurate data on these changes and respond in a timely manner may lead to serious […]

Wildfire smoke and airborne pollutants are an increasing threat to indoor air quality, yet existing filtration systems struggle to balance efficiency, energy use, and proper airflow in large-scale applications. This venture is developing a novel air filtration system that integrates directly into building air handling units to deliver superior particulate removal without high pressure drop […]

In this project, the intern will study the production process at a Parallam mill in Vancouver working closely with its Production Manager. The objective of this work is to develop simulation models to evaluate potential alternatives in order to improve the process efficiency of the final stage of operations at the mill. The final stage […]

This research proposal is in the field of decision making under uncertainty. More specifically, we focus upon improving decision making in adversarial, stochastic and/or partially observable situations. In any situation where there is more than one agent that can impact its current state, or any variable that is outside the control of the agent, we […]

The aim of the project is to design effective informational security and privacy controls for a new type of patient health portal that will empower patients to share contextual information about their values, priorities and beliefs with members of their extended circle of care. Knowing “what matters” to patients is important for clinical decision-making in […]
