This project is about understanding and keeping track of personal wellbeing over time. While wellbeing apps have helped people closely monitor various aspects of their lives, there’s still a challenge in effectively using this data for self-improvement. I’ll work with UpBeing to determine the best ways to measure wellbeing and identify factors contributing to improved […]

This study addresses the challenge faced by children with severe motor impairments in acquiring proficient powered wheelchair (PW) skills for independent locomotion. Traditional means, such as joysticks, may not be suitable, prompting exploration of brain-computer interface (BCI)-based PWs. However, limited research exists in the pediatric realm due to developing brains and a lack of tailored […]

The project presents an opportunity for a Canadian company (SALT Inc.) to partner with a Canadian university research team to develop cost-effective technology to solve an important environmental and health-related problem, while contributing positively to Canada’s strategy to reduce greenhouse gases. The Wood Buffalo Bioreactor Landfill Project is estimated to reduce 253,134 tonnes of CO2 […]

Based on current and potential client feedback, our project is focused to develop a modern data pipeline for data cleaning, validation and audits. We also focus on helping clients who are interested in investing in certain portfolio companies who wish to evaluate the ESG performance of a company which might not have a system that […]

In this project, we plan to address the specific application and problem that TeTechS Inc is facing at this stage of its product development of photoconductive antennas, which is using its photoconductive antennas for characterizing performance of quantum cascade lasers (QCL) in time-domain measurement setup by demonstrating the capability of its proprietary terahertz sensor technology […]

Emissions from the buildings sector account for over half of Toronto’s greenhouse gas emissions, of which about one quarter is attributed to the city’s ~32,000 small commercial buildings. To meet the City of Toronto’s Net Zero by 2040 target, these buildings must be retrofitted and electrified. Small business owners are uniquely positioned for decarbonization with […]

How can we open pathways for young artists from disenfranchised identities to connect and provide leadership to cultural processes and systems? How might we formally recognize their skills and contributions to culture, and further support them as developing artists and researchers? How can research creations sustain and grow community arts impacts, and promote more equitable […]

While climate change must be countered through effective mitigation and adaptation approaches at the global, national, and local levels, implementing effective policies to do so can only be accomplished through buy in by a critical mass of citizens. However, we know that to-date this remains a challenging prospect to accomplish both in the Global North […]

The role of this internship is to assist in reaching the SSHRC goal for theDreamcatcher system of capturing cultural data, traditional ecological knowledge, and traditional land use in order to create as full of a historical, cultural, and economic record as is possible as well as strong land use management/consultation, water management, asset management, and […]

Intrinsik has identified a number of key chemical-pathway combinations that are missing environmental quality guidelines but frequently required for evaluating risks at pipeline compressor stations. With support from senior scientific personnel at Intrinsik, the intern will used environmental risk assessments methods to develop risk-based environmental quality guidelines that are relevant to the land use scenario(s) […]

This study explores the perspectives of Canadians, including equity-deserving groups on artificial intelligence (AI). Underrepresented groups, who are not consulted enough in policymaking due to inequality, are given a platform through this study to share their insights. The goal is to provide inclusive practices in the development, regulation and use of AI. Participants from diverse […]
