Groundwater is the main source of drinking water for the City of Guelph, but understanding how it flows underground is complicated by the region’s glacial history. During the Pleistocene, glaciers repeatedly moved across southern Ontario, shaping the land and overlaying sediments onto the underlying bedrock. The resulting sediment?bedrock interface is vital because it influences how […]

The proposed project aims to implement cutting-edge made-in-Canada approaches to assess and improve the restoration of habitats impacted by resource extraction. This process—known as reclamation—is often implemented by consulting firms and typically does not produce new publicly-available technologies nor public biodiversity data. By implementing modern DNA barcoding and metabarcoding technologies at Canada’s largest copper mine, […]

Biological systems are exceptionally complex. To understand the biochemical processes that influence diseases in whole organisms, information about all the cell types present and their activities is required. Mass cytometry is a Canadian invention that enables the simultaneous quantification of a large number of parameters at the cellular level in heterogeneous biological samples. Mass cytometers […]

Across Inuit Nunangat (Inuit homelands in Canada), Inuit have been travelling on the land, water, and ice since time immemorial to hunt, fish, gather, and access other communities. Inuit knowledge (IK) is learned through oral history and personal experience to understand when and how to travel on the land. However, Inuit travel safety is threatened […]

This project will explore the increase in coyote sightings and incidents in Liberty Village, Toronto. By analyzing data from community reports and speaking with residents and wildlife experts, the team will identify patterns and reasons behind human-coyote conflicts. The goal is to help the City of Toronto understand why these interactions are happening and to […]

The proposed research project will focus on developing and improving an AI-powered tutoring app designed to help prospective immigrants enhance their language skills for permanent residency applications. Interns will refine the app’s features, including personalized lessons, real-time feedback, and exam simulations for IELTS and CELPIP. This project benefits the partner organization by offering an effective, […]

The project is titled Automatic Speech Recognition Adaptation for Pharma IoT Devices.

This project will combine graduate level research expertise with best-in-class managed detection and response security operations, to develop ‘collaborative intelligence’ oriented tooling, in order to support Security Operations Centre (SOC) personnel in rapidly assessing the threat potential of suspect command lines and similar text objects. From a recent analysis of SOC AI usage, it is […]

The project aims to enhance energy efficiency of buildings by studying thermal break devices at the connection between balcony slabs and floor slab. The intern will design and build floor assembly incorporating the design with the help of the indutry partner. This assembly will be tested at Queen’s niversity to examine the strength and stability […]

This project is focused on reducing water pollution caused by phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) runoff from agricultural soils. Excessive nutrients entering water bodies can result in harmful algal blooms, negatively impacting ecosystems, especially in Areas of Concern near the Canadian Great Lakes. Building upon previous successful research, this study would like to continue for […]

This second cycle of oral history interviews will continue to preserve for posterity first-person perspectives of the careers and achievements of eminent Canadian engineers since the 1960s. Interviewees will be individuals who have made significant contribution to Canadian achievements in biological, civil, chemical, dam, geotechnical, mechanical, nuclear and tunnelling engineering fields. As much as possible, […]

Patient safety events (PSEs) describe instances of avoidable harm within healthcare settings, and among these are serious safety events (SSEs) which represent significant patient harm or death. SSEs are reported by staff and undergo review to investigate factors contributing to the events and develop interventions to prevent recurrence and improve safety. Patients from marginalized backgrounds […]
