Environmental education programs have become widely accepted and implemented throughout Ontario elementary and high schools. Ontario EcoSchools has and continues to play a vital role in providing environmental curriculum resources and support tools to promote ecological literacy, however research has shown that a gap between principle and practice remains. The proposed research project aims to […]

New/Mode is a Canada-based social enterprise that facilitates communication between elected representatives and their constituents on the behalf of progressive NGOs. This project will bring novel machine learning technologies to bear in an effort to improve accuracy and efficiency in the maintenance and evolution of a repository of contact information for these elected representatives.

Les métaux lourds sont utilisés couramment dans les procédés de l’industrie chimique. Cependant, leur utilisation est problématique en raison de leur coût élevé, de leur toxicité et des dommages environnementaux que ceux-ci causent. Dans ce projet de recherche, le potentiel commercial et industriel des alternatives sans métaux sera évalué. Ces procédés permettront entre autres de […]

In the energy sector, developing renewable energies such as carbon capture and utilization (CCU), bioenergy (biogas, biofuels, or green bio-chemicals), and hydrogen-based technology depends on improving catalytic technology. Technology providers in these sustainable areas are focused on developing better catalytic technology, while stakeholders must decide which technology to bet on. The challenge lies in the […]

Les activités d’exploitation minière souterraines, mènent souvent à des événements sismiques qui ne peuvent pas être évités ou anticipés. C’est donc très nécessaire pour les compagnies minières d’investir dans les solutions technologiques qui peuvent au maximum moins exposer voire éliminer la présence humaine sous terre. L’opération de soutènement de la roche retient notre attention en […]

Since the mid-nineteenth century, technology has advanced at an exponential rate due to the large demand for computing power and performance. We are presently at a critical point where the switch from classical to quantum computing is required, however, the technology is still in its infancy. Unlike classical computers, which control information flow through bits […]

Near-infrared (NIR) imaging systems play a vital role in human tissue imaging. These systems can facilitate various vital clinical applications. Such applications enable real-time metabolic monitoring, non-invasive imaging of the lymphatic system, and mapping of microvasculature blood flow. In this research, the problem to be addressed is the lack of accessibility to cheap near infrared […]

The Empathetic Spaces Partnership is an interdisciplinary research program investigating new materials, tools, methods and frameworks in the field of living responsive architecture, a new sub-discipline of architecture that focuses on how buildings respond to their occupants. The proposed research project supports this by having the intern document and be involved in developing concepts, tools […]

The project consist of an exploration of molecules simulation with the help of high power computation and quantum computer. Specifically for this project, one of the following will be simulated: CO2, CH4, H2, N2, and O2 or small organic molecules or Metal-Organic Frameworks

The proposed research project aims to develop a method for estimating sound speed profiles in underwater environments. By utilizing pulse-echo acoustic techniques, we can accurately determine the sound speed, which is crucial for various applications such as ocean acoustic studies. The expected benefits to our partner organization include improved underwater acoustic measurements, enhanced mapping of […]

CT angiograms (CTA) are used to detect vessel occlusions in the brain in stroke patients and are a diagnostic criteria of acute stroke. Current standards of care require that an additional CT perfusion scan to be taken in order to accurately locate large and medium-vessel occlusions, allowing for the administering of endovascular therapy (EVT) to […]

The proposed research project will assess the efficacy and effectiveness of a generalized Sports Vision Training (SVT) program on varsity athletes through comparing the effects of a 10-week program to a 5-week program. The SVT program consists of training methods aimed at improving visual perception and efficiency of visual processing. Varsity athletes of hockey, basketball, […]
