Measurement of trace-levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) is critical to manufacturing processes such as in semiconductor production. Electrochemical sensors are a mature technology for measuring DO, with the classic sensor pairing a silver (Ag) with a lead (Pb) anode. Emerging international regulations that ban the use of Pb due to environmental concerns threaten the continued […]

Predictive Fire Incident Risk Scoring System aims to develop a comprehensive risk assessment tool tailored to urban neighborhoods. Utilizing a combination of Census data, historical fire incident records, building structures, and expert knowledge, the project seeks to create a predictive risk scoring system capable of quantifying the overall fire incident risk level for each neighborhood. […]

The Sales and Marketing Coordinator will support the growth of Talent Bureau’s business through supporting marketing campaigns and sales initiatives. This will include working alongside our Marketing Manager to learn and develop campaign material (website, social media, email), supporting our celebrity talent with brand guidance and supporting the sales function of the business

The research centers around the feasibility study of a method to detect faulty outdoor insulators and to classify the type of defects within the insulator. Every different type of defect results in a specific electromagnetic Signature that can be acquired using an antenna and oscilloscope. Using these Signatures some specific features (eg statistical or spectral […]

This project will recommend strategies for deploying and scaling a training program to support commercialization skills for biomedical researchers.

Human land use generates water pollution. Watershed managers use various tools to reduce pollution from human land uses. These tools include funding new fertilizer application equipment that reduces losses of pollutants from agricultural fields, and funding the construction of rain gardens and stormwater ponds in urban areas to reduce runoff. These tools all have costs […]

Myringotomy is a surgical procedure in which a small incision is made in the eardrum and a ventilation tube is placed in it to treat ear infections. The procedure is difficult to teach because it is one of the first operations that surgical residents in Otolaryngology learn. Moreover, the traditional apprenticeship training approach only allows […]

The project aims to develop new flight control systems for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicles, designed for short to medium-distance travel within cities. However, the operation of these vehicles, especially in Canada’s inclement weather conditions face significant challenges, particularly when flying in icy conditions, which can endanger flight safety by affecting the aircraft’s stability and […]

This research project is centered around enhancing the delivery process of ice stored in tanks, particularly focusing on ice slurry, a mixture of small ice crystals suspended in a liquid phase. Typically, these slurries are created from solutions like saltwater (NaCl). The primary objective is to optimize the methods for extracting the stored ice from […]

LoopX plans to have their intern develop a virtual testing platform in a simulated software program, where the robots mining vehicles with the autonomous driving algorithms that are meant to drive in mines can be put through their paces. These robot mining vehicles are expected to handle complex mining-specific situations, but mines are tricky places […]

Mining affects communities and contributes to socio-ecological harms despite the proliferation of industry-led sustainability initiatives. These issues demand ongoing scrutiny given the intensification of ‘critical’ extractivism and its intersection with climate-change mitigation, action, and in/justice. The proposed project aims to interrogate the notion of sustainable mining as a source of ‘green’ jobs, community wellbeing, and […]
