CIGI aims to address the lack of knowledge relating to regulations and decision-making of emerging dual-use technology. This initiative will focus on quantum technologies as a case-study. There is a need for knowledge-building, knowledge-translation and innovation to advance a technology-dynamics perspective in forming decisions on emerging dual-use technology (quantum). To address this need, CIGI proposes […]

We will evaluate treatments for peanut allergy, the most severe and persistent form of food allergy. The proposed interventions are based on targeted delivery of interleukin-10 (IL-10) to the intestine. IL-10 is a protein that is known to be a potent regulator of the immune system. enGene has developed EG-10, a novel, state-of-the-art technology that […]

Canada’s population is rapidly ageing. One sector that is important to older adults’ quality of life is transportation. Indeed, the lack of safe, reliable, and accessible transportation can be a barrier to healthy ageing and increases people’s risk of social isolation. For many older adults, driving is no longer an option, and fixed-route public transports […]

We are making a waste heat recovery device for class 8 heavy-duty vehicles targeted towards cold chain. The device will recycle the energy wasted by the diesel engine of Semi Trucks and convert it to electricity to power the refrigeration unit. Currently, competitors are trying to create fully electric refrigeration units with big batteries that […]

Hemophilia is a rare blood coagulation disorder caused by a deficiency or deformity in one of 12 primary clotting factors. Hemophiliacs experience insufficient healing and prolonged bleeding either from trauma or unprompted bleeding. We are able to maintain a level of the deficient factors in a patient through direct and immediate infusion of a drug […]

Tenzr Health is a leading digital health organization specializing in the management of musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions such as arthritis, chronic back pain, and repetitive strain injuries. The company’s innovative Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) platform utilizes cutting-edge wearable sensor technology, engaging gamified mobile applications, and secure cloud computing to continuously monitor patient progress beyond traditional clinical […]

Awesense is a clean tech company on a mission to accelerate the transition to clean energy by simplifying the creation of data-driven applications for a decarbonized, decentralized grid. To enable the complex planning and operational decisions required by distributed energy resources (e.g., solar, wind, batteries, EVs), Awesense developed its Digital Energy Platform. This platform allows […]

During this internship we will investigate the chemical and spectroscopy (colour) behavior of a new pigment to a variety of variables the new pigment is likely to encounter on application. Dominion Colour Corporation is interested in marketing this pigment as a new and robust colourant. [note: this overview is purposefully vague as the content of […]
