The project aims to research and develop the most effective way for making COVID 19 guidelines into measurable actions for organizations. This research will enhance Diversio’s Audit tool in two parallel tracks: 1) Methodology for developing sector- and region-specific compliance surveys, translating those survey responses into a scoring methodology, and 2) Technology for automating the […]

Gold Sentintel has built a non-visual fall detection and respiration monitoring product for Long Term Care called ElephasCare LTC. ElephasCare LTC utilizes passive radar sensors to detect residents’ position within their rooms, monitoring motion and respiration, and automatically notifying caregivers in the event of a fall, or lack of respiration. This project looks to enhance […]

According to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, the number of global deaths and disabilities related to mental health conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, has risen in recent years. This applies to Canada in the same way, causing premature deaths and disabilities. The general objective of this project is to define, […]

This research project will investigate the sales skills that enable salesperson performance for the modern sales environment. This will help to improve recruiting practices for organizations and will enable organizations to better prepare their employees for sales-related positions, and better prepare the existing sales team by incorporating the findings of this study in their sales […]

Naturally, the Precast Concrete and the Canadian Construction Industries are not going to come out of the COVID-19 crisis unscathed. The various players will all be affected in different ways. And of course, demand will fall sooner or later as the crisis continues, which will squeeze profits throughout the entire construction industry and the Canadian […]

We are building a machine learning algorithm to be able to better understand the messy clinical notes that doctors write on patients and to automatically structure them. This will help hospitals and healthcare systems standardize and extract insights from these notes to make them more useful for determining how sick COVID patients are and how […]

In the COVID 19 vaccine and anti viral therapy development, advanced optical imaging is used to measure the interaction of virus and the host cell Current microscopes is relatively slow and lacks required customization specific for COVID 19 research To address such a challenge, we plan to develop 3D print ing technology to build a […]

Cost-effective clean energy production is one of the most urgent economic and societal issues facing Canada today. Hydro-Québec is a world-leader in clean hydro-electric energy production – an essentially carbon-free source of energy. However, the repair and replacement of hydraulic turbines utilized in hydro-electric power production has two important consequences on clean energy production: (1) […]

In this project, in order to analyze aerial deposition of contaminants resulting from oil and gas activities in west-central Alberta, samples of snowpack will be collected from the Fox Creek area for chemical analysis. Using the chemical analyses results, a map of the contaminants deposition and their potential sources of release will be delineated. The […]

Sanofi Pasteur has established a cutting-edge facility for the production of different types of vaccines in Toronto. This state-of-the-art facility is comprised of various complex mixing operations, which play significant role in the vaccine production. Currently, there is lack of sufficient information about the hydrodynamics of these mixing units for the process validation. In this […]

Concrete elements are extensively used in urban structures including high-rises, bridges, dams and tunnels, and testing their quality and monitoring their health is of extremely high importance in the industry. In this project, use of piezoelectric transducers along with wireless communication and memory elements is suggested to overcome the limitations with the current methods. Piezoelectric […]

The objective of this internship is to create new chemical compounds that can be used to further our research and understanding of a human enzyme known as GBA2 – implicated in several debilitating diseases and signalling pathways in the body. These compounds would not only serve as tools to probe GBA2 for additional information but […]
