THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

Understanding the interplay among the diverse values that provide ecological services is an important research undertaking. Objectives of the proposed research are to examine the interaction between landscape-scale wildlife and carbon values and to investigate the use of wolves as foci for ecotourism activities. Internship objectives are: 1) estimation of wolf and prey densities through […]

Our team hopes to learn more about how common problems are within the uterus of Canadian women and people who were assigned female at birth but no longer identify as women. The uterus can have many problems such as fibroids, adenomyosis, polyps, congenital anomalies, isthmoceles, and intrauterine adhesions. In general, ultrasound is the main tool […]

The proposed research involves a partnership between researchers at Queen’s University (Kingston, Ontario) and industry experts at Dynamic Structures (Burnaby, British Columbia). The primary objective of this research is to optimize the design of a rollercoaster vehicle bogie. Two goals are defined to be simultaneously achieved by the project: the minimization of both the bogie […]

Established in 1986, Native Child and Family Services of Toronto (NCFST) is a multi-service urban Aboriginal agency providing holistic, culture-based programs and services for Indigenous children and families.

The project will accomplish the goal of transferring the academic knowledge in synthesis of tunable plasmonic nanoparticles developed at Wilfrid Laurier University to Nicoya, the company developing advanced instrumentation based on plasmonic sensing using metal nanoparticles. The developed nanoparticles will be tested, and fine-tuned, if required, to satisfy all the criteria required for their industrial […]

All five sturgeon species in Canada are considered at-risk. Conservation research on sturgeons often involves capturing wild sturgeon and performing procedures like tagging surgeries, so we can better understand their ecology in waters that are often impacted by human activities. In this project, we will work with our partner organisation, BC Hydro, to try to […]

The superplastic metal blow forming process involves using air pressure to force a metal sheet at very high temperatures into the shape of a die for the purpose of manufacturing a component part. It has been shown that by subjecting the forming pressure to small pulsations within a range of amplitude and frequency, results in […]

Our project seeks funding through the MITACS Globalink internship to introduce a revolutionary approach to pilot training by integrating virtual flight simulation and biometric machine learning. Dr. Michael Barnett-Cowan leads this cross-disciplinary initiative, utilizing his expertise in flight simulation and motion sickness to develop a sustainable, inclusive, and cost-effective flight training system. At the core […]
