In this project, an online, interactive map visualization tool will be built to illustrate trends of community wellbeing indicators across Nova Scotia using the 2019 Quality of Life survey as the primary source of information. The goal is to empower residents and decision-makers to understand unique well-being trends in communities, providing an invaluable resource for […]

This internship will contribute to the market research and go-to-market strategy development of the Marine Way app, a citizen science mapping mobile application that will help combat the global ghost gear problem. The resultant outcome of the internship is expected to contribute to the establishment of a company and the future publication of the mobile […]

The proposed research project is set out to raise an awareness in the Black hair community and Black communities in Halifax and Canada by extension as regard the natural hair industry and what she can offer. I believe the afro texture hair is quite different from every other hair type out there and it is […]

Marine biofouling, which is the growth of organisms on ocean infrastructure, is a widespread problem with substantial economic and environmental costs. This project undertaken by the intern will develop dynamic tests of a novel graphene-based antifouling coating designed by Graphite Innovation & Technologies (GIT). The dynamic tests involve generating water flow over the coating surface, […]

While online dating has been available for many years, the increase in modern technology has spurred a growth in the amount of online dating apps and dating app users. There is reason to believe that as dating moves online, so does sexualized violence against women. This project will examine how various online dating apps are […]

Many soil microbes present around the plant roots, these microbes are termed as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Bacillus amyloliquefaciens KA-32 is a novel strain of PGPR’s that promotes plant growth, improve yields in some tested crops. The mode of action of this strain is still unknown. One of the possible action might be by […]

In this project we aim to evaluate the potential to effectively predict and prevent the occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea during sleep therapy using multiple sensor inputs in conventional CPAP machines. This will be based on experimental tests during both non-REM and REM sleep and standard polysomnography (PSG) measurements. This project is expected to assess […]

Ammonia is a toxic metabolic waste product of marine organisms grown or held in aquaculture tanks. Typically, ammonia is degraded using bacteria grown on filter media, but these bacterial colonies can take weeks to become established, which requires significant planning before seasonal fisheries begin. An alternate electrochemical method for eliminating ammonia could be turned on […]
