The transition to low-carbon ocean economies requires innovative energy solutions for ports and coastal communities, where electrification of ships, ferries, and vehicles is accelerating. Building on prior research in probabilistic EV charging demand forecasting, energy consumption modeling, and emissions analysis, this project proposes a Smart Port Energy and EV Infrastructure Management Platform. The system integrates […]

The project will create a practical toolkit to support immigrant entrepreneurs in developing environmentally focused, community-based businesses. It advances climate action and economic inclusion through circular economy strategies in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The Ispiciwin Project (I???????, the Project) is an outreach and awareness project that explores the way in which we travel in our modern age to promote the progressive transition our society is making towards zero-emission vehicles (ZEV). Ispiciwin (I???????), in nêhiyawêwin, means to travel, and this Project focuses on the journey we are taking as […]

This project aims to address the challenges faced by immigrant professionals in Newfoundland and Labrador when navigating the credential recognition process. By reviewing existing policies, accreditation standards, and successful practices from other provinces, the project will develop clear, actionable strategies to streamline this process. Expertise Hub Cooperative (EHC) will benefit from research-driven recommendations and sector-specific […]

In recent years, face recognition algorithms based on deep neural networks have achieved human-level performance when tested on face recognition database. However, when put into real-world application, those algorithms are not robust enough, due to factors such as different lighting conditions, camera distance, and face orientations. In this project, the university team and the partner […]

Mobile health (mHealth) strategies hold a great promise to enhance treatment outcomes while mitigating health care costs (Hayes et al., 2014). It allows health care providers to tailor treatments to each individual based on their lifestyle. The primary objective is to involve COPD patients and their health care providers in the development of a mobile […]

Upon completion of the project the interns work will allow the partner organization to better understand how inventory management is handled in small businesses. The project will also help understand what inventory levels should be for small businesses based on predictive analytics. With this knowledge the partner organization can better understand how it can help […]

The proposed research project focuses on the development of a novel model for the computation of sea ice parameters in near real- time relying on satellite data. The interdisciplinary team will investigate solutions for high performance computing to monitor sea ice and calculate ice parameters with the high spatial resolution. This project includes R&D activities […]

There is no memorandum project overview associated with this application.

The proposed research project will take place on three nature reserves owned by the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) (Miscou, NB – 780 acres, Escuminac, NB – 630 acres, Salmonier, NL – 440 acres), where NCC wants to understand how the land is being used by the community, the motivation and beliefs of those using […]

This MITACS proposal focuses on the chemical processes occurring that may enhance or inhibit microbial growth, identify and detect key microbial chemical precursors to MIC, and development of models to predict/mitigate MIC. It is part of a much larger Genome Canada project where the information and models developed in the proposal will be used in […]

Amines and phosphines are organic molecules used in every aspect of modern chemistry. Nonetheless, synthetic protocols for the preparation of valuable asymmetric compounds are limited. The project aims at developing atom- and cost-efficient catalysts that will enable the convenient syntheses of these fundamental chemicals. We will develop catalysts based on titanium, zirconium and hafnium, three […]
