L’adaptation des techniques de mesure d’états émotifs à des situations où l’on peut, rapidement, évaluer un individu dans un groupe de façon non-invasive, tout en lui permettant de vaquer librement à ses occupations demeure un défi de taille et un enjeu de première importance pour de multiples industries. Ce projet consiste à évaluer les techniques […]

This project aims to challenge unjust systems and policies and support Indigenous people in their efforts to establish their food systems and adapt to the new CV-19 world. It will explore ways to address long-term pandemic-related food security challenges led by Indigenous organizations. The intern will gather information from experiences and existing research across Indigenous […]

The use of mask during the pandemic induces more fogging of the eyewear and demands effective alternatives that can be used by everyone. Currently, there are two categories antifogging mechanisms avaialble:1) changing the environmental factors such as surface temperature, relative humidity & surrounding air flow, and 2) reducing the surface tension of the water droplets […]

L’objectif général de ce projet est de développer un équipement électrolytique à l’échelle du laboratoire et d’optimiser son fonctionnement, en développant les procédés électrolytiques appropriés pour réduire voir éliminer les phénomènes d’entartrage-corrosion et de croissance microbienne et ce, sans ajout de produits chimiques. Ce travail se fera en se basant et en se comparant avec […]

This project aims to develop an itinerary demand forecasting model that can handle long-term and short-term forecasting and adjust its parameters under changing situations. General long-term prediction models are relatively precise because the context often remains stationary over time, but can not quickly adapt to unforeseen events, like the global pandemics. It is necessary to […]

Resident killer whale populations in British Columbia (BC) are listed under the Species at Risk Act (SARA) as “threatened” and “endangered” for the northern and southern populations, respectively. Common pollutants such as PCBs and PBDEs, are considered a significant impediment to the recovery of resident killer whales. These chemicals bioaccumulate throughout the food web and […]

Smartpods, located in Dieppe, New Brunswick, have developed a new product “the Pulse Quest”. The Pulse Quest is a digital monitoring technology that transforms an ordinary electric adjustable desk into a “smart” desk. Not only does the Pulse Quest automate the movement of the sit stand desk, it simultaneously collects data on a battery of […]

Pharmaceutical platform technology (PPT) was invented by Sinoveda Inc., the partner organization, to accomplish the tasks of identification, purification, and activity determination for the active ingredients of natural herbal remedies, with the goal of developing and optimizing the remedies. However, two issues remain to be tackled in the PPT process: first, there is as yet […]

Un cadre de référence propre à l’organisation doit être développé intégrant des critères et indicateurs en développement durable et permettant de guider les processus de gestion de la rénovation de manière holistique et intégrée. Cependant, l’atteinte de la performance durable de la rénovation des bâtiments existants constitue un problème complexe à résoudre pour une organisation […]

Le but du projet est de mettre au point de nouvaux modèles de mise à l’échelle pour le mélange de poudres propulsives. Des lacunes ont pu être observées lors de la mise en marche de la production à l’échelle industrielle de nouvelles de formulations de poudres propulsives et les règles de mise à l’échelle courrament […]

The purpose of this project to empower Atlantic Canadian Beef Producers to understand the unique success factors for beef production in the region and identify opportunities to improve their cost of production while mitigating environmental impacts based on the on-going work of the Beef Cattle Research Centre on the Canadian Cow-Calf Cost of Production (CDN […]

The Canadian Light Source produces a very bright light which can be used to study DNA, viruses, cells, proteins, and other small-scale structures. To generate this light, the CLS needs a beam of electrons which are generated by an electron gun. In 2018, this electron gun failed, and the facility was unable to function for […]
