This research project will seek to investigate the effect of Noa’s pro-resolution therapeutic drug compounds on keratinocyte and fibroblast cell migration as it relates to dermal wound closure. This project will investigate the impact of the therapeutic drugs on skin cell viability proliferation, and mobility using a multitude of different assays. In better understand how […]

Depuis la découverte théorique puis expérimentale de l’intrication au milieu du 20e siècle, la Théorique de l’Information Quantique connait un essor fulgurant. En effet, l’intrication est une relation puissante liant certaines paires de particules dans la Nature, et elle est à la base d’algorithmes quantiques puissants, innovants et prometteurs, lesquels mènent à ce que Google […]

Environmental education programs have become widely accepted and implemented throughout Ontario elementary and high schools. Ontario EcoSchools has and continues to play a vital role in providing environmental curriculum resources and support tools to promote ecological literacy, however research has shown that a gap between principle and practice remains. The proposed research project aims to […]

The Empathetic Spaces Partnership is an interdisciplinary research program investigating new materials, tools, methods and frameworks in the field of living responsive architecture, a new sub-discipline of architecture that focuses on how buildings respond to their occupants. The proposed research project supports this by having the intern document and be involved in developing concepts, tools […]

The proposed project aims to commercialize our innovative real estate platform, MyHomie, by launching the V2.0 version to achieve product-market fit. Our larger goal is to develop an automated process that allows homebuyers and sellers to transact with just one click. We understand that this is an ambitious objective, but we believe that it is […]

Standard microprocessors are not getting faster anymore, however, consumer and industry demand for faster and lower-power computing is insatiable. The project aims to research and develop a novel computer-hardware platform to be used for accelerated low-power computing versus the use of microprocessors. The new hardware platform, called a coarse-grained reconfigurable array (CGRAs), can be configured […]

The proposed research project will assess the efficacy and effectiveness of a generalized Sports Vision Training (SVT) program on varsity athletes through comparing the effects of a 10-week program to a 5-week program. The SVT program consists of training methods aimed at improving visual perception and efficiency of visual processing. Varsity athletes of hockey, basketball, […]

The Intern will do research to identify possible existing and new gases to replace harmful gases used in refrigeration, automotive air conditioning and other similar industrial and consumer uses that are known to deplete the ozone layer or are ‘super-greenhouse gases’. Through literature searches and primary interviews with manufacturers, the student will prepare an analysis […]

Triumvira, a Canadian-US post series A biotech company, is working on development of new targeted cancer therapies. Our core technology is focused on the genetic engineering of immune cells isolated from patients. This process then enables these engineered immune cells to recognise cancer cells that otherwise are invisible to the immune system. These therapies are […]

There is a global effort to replace fossil-derived polymers with more sustainable, and better performing renewable polymers. As Canada is planning to put a ban on single used plastics by the end of 2021, putting an effort to replace these plastics with bio-based, compostable and biodegradable plastics could be a potential solution. The proposed work […]

A video game livestream is when one or more “streamers” broadcast themselves playing a video game to an online audience in real time. Our research project will explore the design of video games that allow large audiences (50+ people) to directly control aspects of a game during a livestream. We will investigate ways the audience […]
