The first year after pregnancy is a critical but often overlooked by healthcare systems globally. Many people face physical, emotional, and social changes, yet there is very little formal support. In Canada, most people receive only one six-week follow-up appointment, and support varies depending on who their care provider was. As a result, people with […]

This project aims to develop a business strategy to bring a new drone detection technology to market. The system uses a compact, reconfigurable antenna to detect and locate drones by listening to the radio signals they emit. Unlike current systems that are expensive or complex, this solution is designed to be affordable, portable, and easy […]

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) recently introduced stringent regulations for the treatment of ballast water. Ultra-violet (UV) light is a useful technology in a ballast water treatment system (BWTS), for inactivating species which could be invasive and harmful to humans and the environment. UV damages DNA and prevents replication, but the vital stain methods […]

This project will develop a small, energy-efficient hardware device that can quickly analyze DNA to detect harmful viruses or bacteria in real time. Unlike current systems that rely on internet access and cloud computing, this device will do all the work on its own, making it ideal for use in remote or low-resource areas such […]

Path Forward Neurotech is bringing cutting-edge brain training technology from York University’s research labs to the business world. The company has developed special exercises that combine thinking and movement using augmented reality (AR) technology, which has been shown to significantly improve brain function and quality of life in just 8 weeks. This project will help […]

I will be a Fellow at the University of Dublin’s School of Gender Studies and School of Social Policy, Social Work and Social Justice, to collaborate with an interdisciplinary set of scholars across the university, and to conduct archival research in the Irish Women at Work Oral History Project at University College Cork, the Jewish […]

This project will enhance an innovative telemedicine system that enables clinicians to monitor and consult with patients remotely. The system goes beyond video calls by transmitting real-time medical data from point-of-care devices. The project will focus on ensuring that personal health information is managed and stored within Canada and that the system is compatible with […]

Battery energy storage has potential to drive an energy revolution in society by powering the next generation of carbon-free mobility and clean, smart energy grids. Current battery materials are reaching their performance limits in terms of energy density and charging speed. This project aims to significantly improve those metrics by designing and producing a new […]

This project will expand the research and development capacity of Treefrog for the creation of a social media strategy and analysis department offering unique, cutting-edge and anthropologically informed services for corporate clients. Anthropologically informed analysis goes beyond a superficial reporting of unanalysed numerical data to provide contextualized understandings based on broader social trends and cultural […]

Diabetic foot ulcers are a major complication of diabetes, often leading to serious infections and even limb amputations. These chronic wounds heal poorly due to prolonged inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue damage. This project aims to develop an advanced wound dressing that combines natural and synthetic materials with innovative nanotechnology to improve healing outcomes. The […]

This research project aims to conduct a cross-national comparison of family mental health in the context of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) between France and Canada. The first step will involve harmonizing data from two national cohorts (ELENA in France and PATHWAYS in Canada) by identifying common or comparable mental health measures and family characteristics. Using […]

Connected Cars is an emerging technology that aims at enhancing driving experience and improving safety, productivity, and integrity of transportation systems. Intelligent Mechatronic Systems Inc. (IMS) is a leader in telematics and infotainment technologies, including the convergence of both technologies in delivering the ultimate connected car experience. One of the core components in connected cars […]
