Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are mathematical models that describe random phenomena evolving over space and time. SPDEs underpin modern approaches to modeling phenomena in fields such as climate science, neuroscience, financial mathematics, engineering and quantum physics. The aim of the project is to construct a new solution to a particular SPDE and investigate the […]

The goal of this project will be to facilitate the commercializations of LuzCornea, a material to help repair corneas for people with poor vision. To do this, a way to make large volumes of LuzCornea material must be developed in order to help as many people as possible with poor vision and to reduce the […]

Betavoltaic power sources harvest the energy of radioisotopes to generate electricity. These devices offer a solution to the limitations of traditional lithium-ion batteries. They can provide uninterrupted and long-lasting power for critical systems such as subcutaneous medical implants, remote sensors for water supply lines, and monitoring systems for defence. Betavoltaic batteries transform recycled radioactive waste […]

This project explores food and nutrition security for children with disabilities in schools in Gauteng, South Africa, by working directly with caregivers. It aims to adapt and test a measurement tool that can help understand how well these children’s food needs are being met. By using inclusive communication methods, like Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) […]

This project will focus on the role of regulatory sandboxes in AI governance, exploring how privacy and AI oversight can work together through interviews and fieldwork in the EU and UK at a time when EU regulators are actively working to develop their AI sandboxes under the EU AI Act. The project will bridge the […]

Ce projet de recherche porte sur les politiques d’intégration des personnes immigrantes dans deux grandes métropoles multiculturelles : Bruxelles et Montréal. Il vise à comprendre comment les administrations locales s’adaptent aux défis de la diversité ethnoculturelle et comment leurs actions s’articulent avec celles des gouvernements supérieurs (fédéral, provincial ou régional). En analysant les discours des […]

We are developing a promising new technology based on extracellular vesicles (EVs, often referred to as exosomes), which are natural delivery vehicles produced by cells. These tiny particles have the potential to transform how we treat diseases by delivering therapeutic ingredients directly to where they’re needed in the body. To bring this technology to market […]

This summer internship aims to build an annotated dataset for pulmonary embolism (PE) detection on ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) SPECT scans using diverse and multicenter imaging studies. This involves data cleaning, data categorization, and annotation of perfusion defects consistent with the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, and then use these data to train and validate diagnostic AI models […]

Qinvst Inc. is building an AI-powered financial intelligence platform to support small businesses with advanced yet accessible forecasting, valuation, and marketing attribution tools. Currently, startups struggle to afford the expertise needed to create investor-ready financial models. This project aims to democratize access to strategic financial insights without requiring expensive data science teams. The intern will […]

This project will help Connected Canadians improve the way it delivers free digital literacy training to older adults. By observing, participating in, and helping lead technology workshops and other training sessions, the student intern will gather feedback and suggest ways to make the training offerings even more helpful and easy to follow. The intern will […]

This project aims to enhance Independence Robotics’ assistive robotic system by making it more powerful, modular, and reliable. We will upgrade the system’s hardware by transitioning from an Arduino Mega to an ESP32 microcontroller and integrating CAN bus communication for better sensor and actuator support. On the software side, we will develop real-time teleoperation controls […]

The VT-PATCH project addresses a crucial gap in pediatric healthcare by introducing a user-friendly medical patch designed for short-term, continuous monitoring of infants and young children. Unlike the current complex system of multiple devices and wires, the VT-PATCH offers an all-in-one solution to measure vital signs like heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen saturation, and […]
