Offshore oil rigs play a critical role in Canada’s energy industry, but they rely heavily on diesel generators that are expensive, polluting, and difficult to maintain in remote marine environments. This project explores the development of highly efficient DC–DC converters—advanced electronic devices that improve the way electricity is managed on offshore platforms. These converters make […]

Our project introduces a novel hybrid fluorescence microscopy system that merges the strengths of light-sheet and confocal microscopy while eliminating their key limitations. The system is fully scanless, removing the need for any motorized scanning devices—resulting in faster, simpler, and more reliable imaging. It also integrates a signal intensifier to detect weak fluorescence and a […]

The project aims to develop a non-invasive, dual-modality tool combining eye-tracking (ET) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure cognitive capacity and enable early detection of cognitive impairments in older adults. Using short-term memory tasks, it captures objective biomarkers (e.g., pupil size and prefrontal neural activity) to outperform the conventional tests in sensitivity and cultural […]

This project lays the foundation for the next stage of development of Juno Technologies’ medical and connected device: integrating artificial intelligence (AI) to provide personalized, adaptive menstrual pain management.

VirtualSLP is an AI-powered platform transforming care for patients with neurologic speech disorders. Conditions such as ALS often cause bulbar impairments—loss of speech, swallowing, and facial expression—that devastate quality of life. Yet clinicians, particularly speech-language pathologists (SLPs), face overwhelming barriers: caseloads as high as 600 patients per year, only 15–20 minutes per visit, and no […]

The project aims to prove and commercialize AddManuChain, a computerized inventory system that will deploy on-site 3D printing to print certified parts on location at the remote industrial sites, including offshore oil platforms, mining operations, and also in the maritime facility to eliminate the expensive effect of long downtimes incurred during part replacement. The project […]

This project focuses on developing next-generation marine and offshore components using high-entropy alloys (HEAs) derived from Canadian resources and manufactured through Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF), an advanced metal additive manufacturing technology. The marine and offshore oil and gas industries operate in some of the world’s most corrosive and mechanically demanding environments, where corrosion, fatigue, […]

Ocean technology companies and research organizations rely on autonomous sensors, buoys, and communication nodes to monitor marine environments and support offshore operations. While these devices provide essential data, their dependence on batteries creates high servicing costs, logistical challenges, and limited deployment lifetimes in harsh marine conditions. Overcoming these limitations is critical for enabling sustainable, long-term […]

L’entreprise souhaite optimiser son procédé de fabrication afin de soutenir sa croissance et améliorer la qualité de ses produits. Un des besoins essentiels de l’entreprise est d’optimiser le temps de cuisson […]

Through this project, interns will support organizations and initiatives advancing climate finance and social entrepreneurship in the Victoria and British Columbia ecosystem.

Nature Bee is a Canadian-based company creating microplastic-free, sustainable cleaning products. As we scale, we are looking to strengthen our digital marketing efforts—particularly our email marketing, retention strategies, and performance analytics across channels. This internship project will focus on developing a robust, evidence-based email marketing strategy using Klaviyo, alongside reviewing paid ads performance to improve […]

Older adults have difficulty keeping track of the frequency of their dosage as well as opening the medication packaging. Nonadherence to prescribed medication can lead to hospitalization which increases the burden of care both for the patients and the medication system. Our solution, Pillsette, is a smart medication adherence device that offers a reusable pill […]
