This research investigates the experiences and perspectives of skilled newcomer women in Ontario to understand the factors and facilitators which support their transition and integration to the Canadian labour market. While working closely with Newcomer Women’s Services (NEW), this study will interview racialised skilled immigrant women and will attempt to examine their experiences, needs, and […]

The Royal Canadian Mint is a world-class producer of circulation and non-circulation coins for Canada and other countries and aggressively conducting and supporting research and development to meet customer requirements and social/environmental wellbeing. One of future strategies at The Royal Canadian Mint is to produce antibacterial Canadian circulation coins, reducing the potential spread of bacterial […]

This project will allow the research group at Ericsson Canada Inc. to produce in less time more R&D results and proof of concept related to short-reach optical interconnects applied to ICT systems. This will keep the interest of the mother company in Sweden and help us attract other interesting R&D mandates in Ericsson Montreal to […]

Scrawlr is a platform for unconstrained, global interaction with all internet content and users. Scrawlr allows for user evaluation and unconstrained classification of any Scrawlr-hosted or non-Scrawlr content. For non- Scrawlr content, this evaluation and classification allowance will be first at the URL level but will subsequently be provided at the individual content component level. […]

On estime à 4 000 le manque d’infirmières dans le système de santé québécois. Le manque de personnel est tout aussi endémique chez les autres professionnels de santé. Par ailleurs, il est démontré qu’environ 30% du temps de travail des professionnels de la santé est consacré à diverses tâches administratives. Notre projet vise la confection […]

Jumine doit créer un jeu de données pour concevoir un modèle de détection, qui permettra de signaler en temps réel les anomalies présentes dans le procédé […]

Global society trend in sustainable technologies and environmentally friendly solutions demand the energy-intensive rare earth elements (REEs) separation methods to be more sustainable and possibly adhere to the green chemistry principles. This project tackles molecular recognition technology (MRT) as a method to selectively separate REEs. MRTs is still in its infancy and literature lacks data. […]

Canada is in the midst of an opioid epidemic. Although oral opioid agonist therapies (OAT) are effective for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD), a number of barriers pose a significant challenge to treatment initiation and retention. In 2018, Health Canada approved a new medication for OUD, a once-monthly injection, which may be able […]

Ce projet proposé par EXFO vise à améliorer la performance des Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) pour l’évaluation de la qualité d’un lien de fibre optique utilisé pour la télécommunication. L’objectif principal est d’améliorer l’identification des événements et leur classification en utilisant des réseaux neuronaux. Les méthodes actuelles peinent à identifier des événements successifs rapprochés, particulièrement […]
