This project will explore how wood pellets can be used more widely as an affordable, sustainable heating option in the Northwest Territories (NWT). While some areas already use wood pellets, there’s potential to expand this environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels like oil and diesel. The research will involve gathering information, working with local communities, […]

This research project will investigate the attitudes and beliefs towards learning and different kinds of training programs at a company called White Water West, with the intention of then addressing any identified problem through the design, development, and implementation of learning programs and materials. This proposal is for a single internship unit of four months, […]

This project aims to enhance SolvedAF’s digital product strategy by developing a workflow automation system that streamlines client onboarding, project tracking, and internal collaboration. By integrating automation tools and optimizing business process workflows, SolvedAF will improve efficiency, reduce manual bottlenecks, and enhance the user experience for both internal teams and clients. The project will contribute […]

All water utilities, engineering consulting firms, and provincial and federal departments in Canada responsible for design, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, and development of a water distribution system would directly benefit from the outcomes of the proposed research. Efficient and effective asset management of water distribution infrastructure is a demand driven issue for any water utilities due […]

Machine Learning (ML) models are known to leak information about the data they were trained on, enabling membership and reconstruction attacks [7]. Such privacy risks damage trust in ML, and hinder the broad adoption of model co-training, through Federated Learning or cloud-based co-training. This is especially true in sensitive domains that could significantly benefit from […]

This research project will explore how the pursuit of social wealth can impact the social health and well-being of remote and hybrid leaders. Building on the concepts of Social Wellbeing, Social Capital, and Social Wealth, I propose a continuum from loneliness to Social Wealth, where Social Wealth represents an abundance of meaningful, reciprocal social connections. […]

The advent of smartphones and the associated change in usage patterns indicates that carrier voice revenues are constantly going down and are expected to almost vanish in the near future. Data revenues are picking up but not at a rate which will make up for the shortfall in voice revenues. Also, the increase in data […]

There is an increasing demand for high resolution multimodality imaging of research animals, such as mice and rats, to allow non-invasive monitoring of disease models and therapeutic interventions. This project focuses on the development of a new positron emission tomography (PET) imaging system that can be operated inside a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. Once […]

This project aims to investigate market demand for an emerging type of quantum computing system in partnership with QV-Studio. The quantum computing system has to potential to accelerate the timeline for useful quantum computing in the domain of materials and chemistry simulation with applications in chemical process design, materials design, and pharmaceuticals. This opportunity is […]

This project promotes the use of recycled material by diverting it from current waste streams, thus reducing the pressures on local landfills and positively contributing to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. However, processing lumber waste generated in construction and demolition projects remains challenging due to the variability in dimensions and wood species as well […]

This project aims to investigate asymmetric cell division (ACD) in blood cell development using live imaging and Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) as a model system. Hematopoiesis, the process of blood cell formation, relies on tightly regulated mechanisms to balance stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Disruptions in this balance can cause blood disorders such as leukemia. […]

This project aims to support The Cansbridge Fellowship in scaling its operations to meet growing demand while maintaining its mission of empowering Canada’s future entrepreneurial leaders. By redesigning the program framework, integrating advanced technology, and developing innovative marketing strategies, the project will provide the organization with scalable solutions to expand its reach and impact. Interns […]
