After several years of exploration, SSMPA members believe there to be opportunity for growth of the pasture-based poultry sector in BC, given an increasing number of small-scale poultry farmers, increasingly adequate processing facilities and access to the significant consumer markets. This belief was confirmed in 2022-2023, when SSMPA leadership met with producers all over BC. […]

Rosetta Stone Canada collects user demographic and performance data from Fit Brains Trainer (brain fitness training games), Cognitive Assessment, and Lifestyle Assessment mobile apps. Data from the three apps can be linked and analyzed to answer research questions such as how lifestyle factors can influence brain training habits and outcome. This internship will: 1. Statistically […]

Solid State, based in Surrey, provides support to BIPOC and racialized communities through cooperative development and social enterprise incubation. To meet our goal of onboarding 12 new cohorts annually, we need to build capacity within our development team by training young post-secondary students in cooperative development, a field growing in importance as communities seek sustainable […]

Pegmatites are important sources of several rare elements which are essential for development of modern technologies. The pegmatite deposits in Uganda had been explored and mined until the early 1970’s. At present, they are being re-evaluated and exploration for new deposits is ongoing. Auranda is seeking to establish models for mineral production based on certified, […]

With an aging population, age-related neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, as well as stroke, are increasing. These conditions involve critical neuron loss, yet the brain’s ability to replace neurons is highly limited. Current regenerative therapies, such as neural stem cell stimulation or neuron transplants, show promise but face challenges in manufacturing and patient […]
