This project aims to turn raw underwater video into decision-ready science. Our software automatically detects, classifies, and counts marine species, then delivers results in a simple web dashboard with linked video clips, maps, and exportable reports. Instead of annotating from scratch, ecologists just review and correct AI suggestions—cutting review time by more than half. Built […]

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 […]

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 […]

The Colchester Food Network (CFN) is a well-established community organization working to improve access to healthy food and build food skills across Colchester County. In 2024, CFN became one of Nova Scotia’s designated Collaborative Food Networks (CFNs), strengthening its commitment to dignity-based food access, inclusive community partnerships, and holistic, culturally responsive programming. With support from […]

Aeronovous delivers AI-powered drone inspection solutions for infrastructure, industrial equipment, and wind turbines, with this internship specifically focused on wind turbine applications. The traditional inspection industry relies on costly and inefficient manual methods—rope-access technicians, prolonged turbine outages, and highly variable reports influenced by crew experience and weather conditions—creating significant safety risks, operational downtime, and inconsistent […]

VerteVUE is a portable, radiation free, imaging device that will allow clinicians to assess critical anatomical features of the spine at the point of care. VerteVUE supports early clinical decision making when used alongside patient reported outcome measures (PROMs), standardized questionnaires and physical assessments. It also streamlines triage to determine conservative versus surgical care, reducing […]

One third of Canadians drink groundwater, yet the threats to groundwater remain ‘out of sight, out of mind’ for most Canadians and decision makers. Small, rural communities and First Nations disproportionately rely on groundwater as a drinking water resources but often lack the resources to advocate for effective policy that ensures groundwater security. Although groundwater […]

This project explores how the sustainability efforts of select Atlantic Canadian businesses are enhancing their competitiveness and profitability, as well as positively affecting the communities and systems they operate within. We will develop 10-12 mini case studies, highlighting how organizations’ actions have strengthened their business model and competitive advantage while simultaneously creating social and/or environmental […]

This project aims to evaluate the food security programs delivered by Maggie’s Place Cumberland as part of the Cumberland County Collaborative Food Network (CFN) initiative. Maggie’s Place, a trusted family resource centre serving communities across the region, is the backbone organization for the CFN in Cumberland County. Building on two years of CFN-funded activities, this […]

The Island Food Network (IFN), based in Victoria County, Cape Breton, is one of the community partners delivering the province-wide Collaborative Food Network (CFN) program. Launched in April 2025, the CFN initiative supports community-led responses to food insecurity by promoting human dignity, choice, nutrition, adaptability, and efficiency in local food programs. This project will evaluate […]

This research project will identify and quantify the cumulative impacts of human development and land use in Alberta’s Crowsnest Watershed using satellite imagery collected over time and geospatial change detection techniques. By analyzing how the landscape has changed over time as a result of human use, and incorporating relevant local and community-sourced data, the study […]

This project aims to develop computer models that can help improve how stroke care is delivered in hospitals with limited resources. By using data and predicting patient needs, we hope to design better ways to manage hospital staff, equipment, and patient care. The collaboration between Arizona State University and Dalhousie University will combine expertise in […]
