Modern defense and security operations rely on rapidly expanding networks of distributed sensors operating across air, land, maritime, cyber, and space domains. These sensors generate vast volumes of heterogeneous data—including EO/IR imagery, radar tracks, and RF detections—often transmitted across bandwidth-constrained, unreliable, or contested communications networks. In many current architectures, sensor data must pass through centralized […]

This project will place an intern with Propel Impact, a national non-profit, to support its growing work in social innovation and social finance in Ottawa and Ontario. The Mitacs intern will help Propel Impact and its partners, including social enterprises, community foundations, and impact investing funds, strengthen how they measure and communicate the outcomes of […]

This project is based on a collaboration between the University of Ottawa and Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, aims to revolutionize how we control light for the next generation of quantum computers. Currently, managing light particles requires bulky and complex networks of mirrors and lenses that often leak information and are difficult to scale […]

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a common and potentially life-threatening condition affecting 1 in 10 people during their lifetime. Many cases occur during or shortly after hospitalization. Although hospitals aim to prevent these events, accurately identifying VTE using routine hospital data remains challenging, as diagnostic codes alone are […]

This project supports BioWise Technologies Inc. in advancing the development of sustainable, food-grade fungal proteins through controlled microbial fermentation. The intern will screen and evaluate a library of fungal strains based on protein content and amino acid composition to identify high-performing candidates. Selected strains will undergo purification and genetic characterization, followed by optimization of growth […]

Tunneling is growing in Canada, especially in urban areas, as systems for underground transportation. These infrastructures require advanced technologies for quality assurance and inspection. The project’s outcomes will help develop an NDT solution for the quality assurance of new tunnels and the inspection of existing tunnels across Canada, while also improving the safety and service […]

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a critical treatment for over 30 serious diseases, including blood cancers and genetic disorders. It relies on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), which regenerate the blood and immune systems. These cells can be collected from bone marrow, cord blood, or mobilized peripheral blood, and may come from the patient (autologous) […]

This research project will leverage Large Language Models to automatically read and interpret network product documentations, generating structured information that can help automate the configuration of network products with minimal human effort. By automating these time-consuming tasks, the project aims to help engineers accelerate their product setup process, reduce the risk of manual errors, and […]

The Environmental scan, including a critical appraisal, will 1) map the scope, range, and effectiveness of music and movement programs for older adults and identify gaps and opportunities for future research and practice; and 2) map and appraise research methodologies being used for studies conducted on music and movement programs for older people and identify […]

The proposed research will develop novel distributed machine learning techniques for stable resource allocation and improving traffic estimation in networks. It is a well-known fact that networks are becoming complex and user demand is growing in many directions including the traditional demand for capacity and less delay, as well as improvements in Quality of Experience […]

This project is part of my doctoral research and examines how Islamic moral economy developed in Iran and why it gradually lost institutional influence after the 1979 Revolution. In the early revolutionary period, Islamic economists promoted ideas centered on social justice, redistribution, and protection of the oppressed. Over time, these welfare oriented visions were replaced […]

What’s the best way to distribute HIV treatment equitably? In developing countries, the major challenges are a lack of resources and infrastructure. In large developed countries like Australia and Canada, a major challenge is the geography and the clustering of populations. However, everyone deserves to have access to treatment, no matter where they live. This […]
