This summer internship aims to build an annotated dataset for pulmonary embolism (PE) detection on ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) SPECT scans using diverse and multicenter imaging studies. This involves data cleaning, data categorization, and annotation of perfusion defects consistent with the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, and then use these data to train and validate diagnostic AI models […]

Cognitive Check is an organization committed to improving diagnosis, management and outcomes of mild traumatic brain injuries (MTBI) such as concussions through an innovative health technology app. The purpose of Cognitive Check aligns with Centennial College and WIMTACHS business strategy and ethos of digital health technology innovation and applied research in healthcare technology. The goal […]

Many reports have established a correlation between obesity and diabetes with cardiovascular complications such as heart failure. This occurs due to changes in the structure and function of the heart, yet the precise mechanisms responsible for regulating these changes in diabetes remain to be determined. This project will focus on the role played by a […]

Almost half of the languages spoken in the world today are in danger of disappearing, and the human and financial resources devoted to the documentation and revitalization of vulnerable languages are nowhere near enough to meet the need. In contrast, English is a required subject worldwide and English Language Teaching (ELT) is a multi-billion-dollar industry. […]

Hospital-associated disability (HAD) occurs when patients are admitted to the hospital for acute treatment, but experience an extended stay resulting in reduced functional independence (1,2). Approximately one third of older adults will become disabled as an unintended consequence of hospital admission, resulting in a significantly increased risk of being institutionalized after discharge (1–4). Frail older […]

Komuni is a mission-driven application focused on providing accessible, patient-oriented information on hematological malignancies. We plan to onboard a dedicated and curious medical student to join our team for a hands-on learning experience that merges academic research with public health education. During this placement, the student will critically evaluate peer-reviewed literature across six key disease […]

Qinvst Inc. is building an AI-powered financial intelligence platform to support small businesses with advanced yet accessible forecasting, valuation, and marketing attribution tools. Currently, startups struggle to afford the expertise needed to create investor-ready financial models. This project aims to democratize access to strategic financial insights without requiring expensive data science teams. The intern will […]

This project will train the intern in using artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision to improve aircraft tracking in airports. Specifically, the intern will work on automating the measurement of the Runway Occupancy Time (ROT) in aircraft, reducing the need for manual tracking and increasing accuracy. The project involves designing a multi-camera system to track […]

Our project is about creating a truly usable bone glue that can safely and effectively bond to bone while naturally breaking down in the body. Right now, our bone cement doesn’t adhere well enough on its own, so we’re adding special additives to improve its adhesive properties and make it more reliable for medical use. […]

The continued rise in global temperatures, driven by excessive greenhouse gas emissions, has brought carbon dioxide (CO2) to the forefront of global challenges. As the most abundant greenhouse gas, CO2 presents both a critical issue and a unique opportunity: its removal and conversion into value-added products have become key goals for scientists, industries, and policymakers. […]

Many new mothers face uncertainty and a lack of support when making decisions about how to feed their newborns, especially in the early postpartum period. While breastfeeding is widely recognized for its benefits—such as supporting infant immune health, cognitive development, and mother-baby bonding—access to consistent guidance can vary greatly. Studies show that mothers with access […]

This project will develop Canada’s nationwide, open-source simulation model to predict both supply and demand for Personal Support Workers (PSWs), addressing a critical workforce shortage as Canada’s older adult population grows rapidly. Health Workforce Canada will create innovative modelling tools that allow healthcare decision-makers to test different policy scenarios and make evidence-based planning decisions for […]
