Le Labo – Solutions Brassicoles est une entreprise qui produit à grande échelle des solutions de levures liquides à des fins brassicoles, c’est-à-dire qu’elle fournit aux microbrasseries du Québec, et bientôt d’ailleurs, les petites bêtes nécessaires à l’élaboration des bières, celles qui rendent possible la production d’alcool lors de l’étape qu’on appelle ‘fermentation’, mais permettent […]

The project will develop a 6G silicon-based beamforming network incorporating optical technologies. Such a technology may increase the performance of the 6G wireless systems and to reduce the power consumption. The use of photonics to perform beamforming has a key advantage of wide instantaneous bandwidth with no beam squint problem. Since the signals are already […]

Le projet proposé vise à réduire les accidents de conduite dus à la fatigue au volant en particulier pour les chauffeurs routiers. Pour cela, des capteurs intégrés dans la housse du siège du conducteur, serviront à mesurer la respiration et le rythme cardiaque du conducteur. Le but de la recherche proposée sera de réussir à […]

The goal of this project is to assess the effectiveness of Concrete Canvas® in mitigating the radioactive radon gas exposure as well as methane infiltration into northern houses due to degrading permafrost. The outcomes of this research can provide northern communities with a relatively low-cost climate adaptation strategy to deal with toxic soil gas exposure […]

Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is a practical solution for reducing the overall green house gas (GHG) emission and environmental footprint of the civilization. The CoFlow simulation software developed by CMG is one of the only tools available for predicting the performance of the CCS applications. Generally, there are technical challenges and prediction deficiencies associated […]

The goal of this project is to generate feedback on the EvacCompass app from key stakeholder groups: • Fire departments • Property management companies / Stratas • Multi-unit residential residents The intern will conduct solution interviews with the 3 main stakeholder goups to: • Solicit feedback on whether EvacCompass as designed will address fire safety […]

Today, construction activities have resulted in the depletion of vast amounts of non-renewable resources that cause climate change which is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our day. The construction industry is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions globally. Sustainable construction is now mainstream, necessitating the investigation of environmentally friendly construction materials […]

This project aims to design, develop, and deploy a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Patient Queuing System in the Ambulatory Care Department at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, in Charlottetown, PE. This work will develop and test a prototype which then be used to help further discovery potentially leading to more efficient resource allocation.

Automotive makers are facing increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shift from the use of more conventional internal combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles. Along with this shift comes a demand for on-board electronics that can operate at higher power densities, such as the electric motor. A less utilized, yet cheaper and more […]

Photocatalysis is one of the most exciting solar light-assisted applications, in which energy is converted using semiconductor materials and the synergistic effect of light photons and catalyst. Polymeric graphitic carbon nitride (gCN) nanomaterials is one of such photocatalyst which has undergone a resurgence as viable supports and co-catalysts in photocatalysis because of their tunable reaction […]

Sleep-related breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea, can be life threatening. Although solutions exist to treat these disorders, like Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and oral appliances including Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs), there are several issues relating to cost, comfort, and convenience with the products that are on the market today. This applied design […]

Radiation treatment (RT) is one of the primary methods for treating cancer. The Radiation Medicine Program (RMP) in Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (PMCC) is Canada’s largest of its kind. It delivers around 11,000 courses of radiation treatment for over 8000 patients annually. RT uses Linear Accelerators (LINAC) to deliver high-energy rays to destroy or shrink […]
