This project aims to help Rogers Communications bring real-world AI and Generative AI (GenAI) solutions to life across Business units like Customer Care, Network, HR and Rogers Business. A team of five interns from the University of Waterloo will work with Rogers’ Data & AI Strategy team to turn identified promising use cases into working […]

This project focuses on launching and evaluating the NewGen Smart-Cup platform in clinical settings. NewGen Smart-Cup enables rapid, digital urine testing to support early detection of conditions such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes. Building on prior validation work, this phase will study how healthcare teams adopt and integrate the technology into existing prenatal care routines. […]

This proposal aims to accelerate the discovery of materials in Chemical looping combustion (CLC), which is an emerging technology that requires lower energy expenditure to capture CO2 from fossil fuels. A machine learning (ML) framework that only requires a limited amount of data for training will be developed. Atomistic simulations will be conducted to predict […]

Federal and provincial governments are expected to approve release of treated oil sands process water (OSPW) into the Athabasca River to mitigate overabundance of mine wastewater and enable mine reclamation and closure. Concern is growing about the potential for downstream impacts on aquatic ecosystems at the Peace-Athabasca Delta. This project will generate critical knowledge to […]

This project aims to improve the delivery of omega-3 oils—nutrients that readily degrade during digestion, by developing soft liquid–liquid capsules that protect these oils as they pass through the gastrointestinal tract. Initial formulation and testing will be conducted at the University of Waterloo, where capsules will be created to achieve high stability and controlled release. […]

This project will contribute to the design and building of the systems behind our clinical-facing applications for automated point-of-care ultrasound interpretation. Working closely with our product, AI, and regulatory teams, the project focuses on building real-time respiratory imaging tools that bring immediate diagnostic answers to patients — whether at the bedside, in the back of […]

The aim of this project is to study and develop the formalism of spacetime superposition. The focus will be to understand the behaviour of simple quantum systems in the vicinity of black hole horizons. In this physical scenario, both quantum theory and general relativity remain valid, but the question of what happens cannot be answered […]

This project addresses the challenge of designing compact, field-deployable electrolyzer systems for producing hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a safe and effective antimicrobial agent with growing relevance in wound care, humanitarian response, and combat casualty care. Despite HOCl’s broad-spectrum efficacy and favorable safety profile, current production systems are bulky, proprietary, and poorly suited to decentralized use. The […]

The intern listed (Divena Raina) on this particular application will work alongside the Government of Alberta on the Smart Document Extraction Agent team. The goal of a Government of Alberta Redaction Assistant would be to empower the government to handle sensitive information and access requests with greater eff iciency and security. ? Focus: using the […]

Goosechase is a Canadian platform that helps schools, nonprofits, and businesses run interactive, mission-based activities like onboarding, orientation, museum tours, and team training. Today, creating these experiences and checking large numbers of photo, video, and text submissions is slow and manual, especially in education, where safety and privacy are critical. This project will build AI […]

1QBit is midway through our effort to create a software suite (Topological Quantum Architecture Design (TopQAD)) that automates quantum architecture design and enables you to study the impact of quantum algorithm and FTQC component design choices on resource requirements. It can be used to support scientific research, product development, and quantum computing policy and investment […]

Plastic video laryngoscope blades are essential tools that doctors use to help patients breathe during surgery. Like many other medical devices, these blades are made from strong plastics but are meant to be used only once and then thrown away to prevent contamination and protect patient safety. This research project will investigate whether single-use plastic […]
