Valider les construits d’une application permettant de mesurer le bien-être des individus au sein de leur organisation ou de leur communauté.

There is a strong market demand for welding filler metals to make surfaces that can resist both abrasive wear and chemical loss. The objective of this internship is to quickly design and formulate high-chromium submerged arc welding powder for overlay. The experimental core for this project involves selecting alloys and designing microstructure at the University […]

Existing HVAC system design may be contributing to the spread of viruses such as COVID-19 with transmission through ventilation systems. Many HVAC systems recirculate up to 85% of the air, can have cross-contamination of the exhaust air stream with the supply air stream and virus transmission is more likely to occur when the relative humidity […]

Up to half of patients with COVID-19 requiring mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit (ICU) will develop ICU-Acquired Weakness (ICUAW). Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) holds promise to both prevent and treat ICUAW. NMES applies electrical impulses to muscles through electrodes placed on the skin to induce muscle contractions, and is highly effective in maintaining […]

Mothers can influence the behaviour and physiology of their young even before hatch. In birds that occurs through the deposition of hormones and nutrients into the egg. Mother-hens can be housed in various systems that offer different challenges to the bird. Our project will investigate how housing a mother-hen can affect the resilience of their […]

COVID-19 is the largest pandemic of the 21st century, affecting over 6.6 million individuals and claiming over 391,000 lives worldwide as of June 4, 2020. It is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV2), which uses a receptor to gain entry into the host and cause active infection. This project involves the expertise […]

A typical production line in electronics generates an important quantity of data which is generally ignored and unused. Tack Verification increases efficiency of electronics manufacturing companies by collecting and transforming operational data into actionable insights and key performance indicators. The project consists of the research and primary validation of artificial intelligence models allowing discovery of […]

Grocery Response NDG is a grocery ordering and delivery program for seniors 70+ who are confined to their homes during the pandemic. The project is a joint initiative of Concordia University (Ageing + Communication + Technologies – ACT) and New Hope Seniors Centre. The Québec response to the COVID-19 pandemic requires seniors 70 and over […]

This proposal seeks to identify the most promising lead candidate for a COVID-19 vaccine that could be rapidly and inexpensively scaled-up to meet Canada’s COVID-19 vaccine needs. In collaboration with a Canadian biotech company, Entos Pharmaceuticals, we will determine the safety and efficacy of several vaccine candidates to identify the most promising candidate to move […]

The proposed research will explore two types of business strategies – cross-border business and remote work uptake – that can help small Canadian companies adapt to and recover from the shutdown policies put in place during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the intern will begin by conducting two literature reviews – one to explore the costs […]

The project is a high-throughput method to detect and identify infectious disease such as COVID-19 based on advanced optical technologies developed by Manitoba based Adva Diagnostics Inc. The Adva technologies use the interaction of light with a patient sample to produce a spectral “fingerprint” in minutes without the use of reagents. The spectral “fingerprint” is […]

Social distancing and case tracking are effective steps to prevent the further spread of Covid-19 and prepare for the recovery of economy. QR code scanning is applied in many countries for case tracking purpose; however, as a smart phone is required and concerns of the privacy have raised, a simple-to-use and cost-effective approach based on […]
