We are developing a specialized AI-driven Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) for neurology that integrates a large language model with domain-specific tools (such as neuroimaging analysis, EEG interpretation, and up-to-date medical knowledge retrieval). The system serves as an intelligent assistant for neurologists, helping analyze patient data (e.g. MRI scans, EEGs, clinical notes, etc.) and providing […]

We aim to develop and implement a cost-efficient framework for communicating with proprietary generative AI platforms such as ChatGPT. In fact, these provider companies expose their models through an interface that can be accessed via API. However, calling their API will incur a cost considerably based on our request. Basically, smaller models are cheaper than […]

We’re developing the first high-efficiency, ultra-long-range, multi-source thermophotovoltaic (TPV)-based wireless power transmission (WPT) receiver, designed to convert laser beams into electricity without relying on fragile PV surfaces. It uses a spectrally selective absorber to convert laser into tailored thermal emission, matched to low-bandgap GaSb cells. Unlike traditional laser WPT systems, it performs effectively in space, […]

This project focuses on improving short-term electricity demand forecasting, which is essential for ensuring the reliable and cost-effective operation of the power grid. Many Canadian utilities are now using demand-side management strategies such as peak shaving, reducing electricity consumption during peak hours, to lower costs and reduce strain on the grid. However, these strategies can […]

This project involves histopathological analysis of canine airways with stenosis, a type of obstructive disease that impedes airflow. This research is aimed to characterize the disease and understand the cellular mechanisms that drive the disease progression, and therefore inform the future directions of treatment innovation.

AllerEase is a personalized grocery recommendation tool that helps allergy-sensitive users shop safer and easier. It generates user-specific shopping lists based on allergy profiles and live product data. This project aims to refine matching logic and validate usability through real-world testing.

The first year after pregnancy is a critical but often overlooked by healthcare systems globally. Many people face physical, emotional, and social changes, yet there is very little formal support. In Canada, most people receive only one six-week follow-up appointment, and support varies depending on who their care provider was. As a result, people with […]

This project aims to develop a business strategy to bring a new drone detection technology to market. The system uses a compact, reconfigurable antenna to detect and locate drones by listening to the radio signals they emit. Unlike current systems that are expensive or complex, this solution is designed to be affordable, portable, and easy […]

This project focuses on developing advanced bioinks enhanced with tiny filler materials to improve 3D bioprinting for tissue engineering. By creating stronger, more printable, and biologically compatible materials, the project aims to help the partner organization advance regenerative medicine technologies. This will support the development of new personalized medical treatments and open up commercial opportunities […]

This project will develop a small, energy-efficient hardware device that can quickly analyze DNA to detect harmful viruses or bacteria in real time. Unlike current systems that rely on internet access and cloud computing, this device will do all the work on its own, making it ideal for use in remote or low-resource areas such […]

Path Forward Neurotech is bringing cutting-edge brain training technology from York University’s research labs to the business world. The company has developed special exercises that combine thinking and movement using augmented reality (AR) technology, which has been shown to significantly improve brain function and quality of life in just 8 weeks. This project will help […]

This project will enhance an innovative telemedicine system that enables clinicians to monitor and consult with patients remotely. The system goes beyond video calls by transmitting real-time medical data from point-of-care devices. The project will focus on ensuring that personal health information is managed and stored within Canada and that the system is compatible with […]
