CortexCare is a health-technology company focused on developing non-invasive and consumer-ready solutions for sleep improvement and neurological wellness. Their core activities include designing wearable and textile-integrated devices that combine sensors, stimulations, and analytics to support individuals with sleep disorders such as insomnia. The company has previously developed a pillowcase capable of generating low-intensity electromagnetic fields […]

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a method to measure brain activity. It can be used to detect atypical brain development. Research has shown that EEG can be used as a clinical tool to detect early signs of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (Bosl et al., 2018). However, measuring EEG in children diagnosed with ASD turns out to […]

General Aviation (GA) contributes billions in GDP, and supports hundreds of thousands of jobs in Canada and the United Kingdom (UK). Sustaining the industry requires experienced pilots flying safely for as long as possible. To preserve pilot engagement in GA, Carleton University’s Advanced Cognitive Engineering Laboratory has developed the CANFLY, a cognitive health screening tool […]

This project aims to make future internet-connected devices secure against quantum computer attacks by developing faster and safer cryptographic software for small embedded systems. We will optimize a newly standardized post-quantum algorithm so that it runs efficiently on widely used ARM Cortex-M7 processors without sacrificing security. The results will help protect critical infrastructure, healthcare systems, […]

This project, “Validation of numerical methods for luminescent coupling in novel semiconductor technologies and material systems,” is a partnership between Canadian and German researchers at the University of Ottawa, the University of Freiburg, and the affiliated Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy. It aims to produce a program for calculating luminescent coupling within semiconducting devices such […]

This project aims to collect high-quality sound recordings of diverse environments for subsequent analysis and annotation to support the training of artificial intelligence models. The project will equip the intern with the skills needed to complete their PhD at their home institution following the international experience. Both institutions will benefit from further relationship-building, as the […]

I will explore how schools in China use nature to support the mental health of students and teachers/Administration. By observing classrooms and speaking with educators, I hope to understand which practices are most effective and how they might be adapted for use in other countries. The University of Windsor will benefit by gaining new research […]

This community-based research project will partner with Toronto Environmental Alliance (TEA) to identify how place-based community hubs – such as community centres, neighbourhood organizations, and frontline service non-profits – can catalyze equitable climate action. This project will help us understand how to address climate change equitably. Research has shown that climate action to date has […]

Ryzome Environmental Corporation is transforming the way farms and greenhouses feed their crops. By recovering powerful nutrients and minerals from local waste streams, Ryzome is building a new generation of regenerative, greenhouse-ready fertilizers that help growers boost yields, strengthen plant health, and improve nutrient density. These products support healthier soils, reduce pest and disease pressure, […]

Canadians are paying for the climate crisis with the money, with their homes and with their lives. Fortunately, we have many transformatives technologies that can help mitigate this crisis. However, these technolgies are not as widely deployed as needed in part because they use very expensive materials, that are often also critical minerals that are […]

The G-BSIEM-PQC project is a pioneering cybersecurity initiative designed to fortify enterprise Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems against the existential threats posed by the post-quantum era. As quantum computing capabilities advance, the traditional cryptographic algorithms currently protecting critical infrastructure are becoming vulnerable to “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks. This research addresses this urgent […]

Xello is a leading college and career readiness platform designed to engage K-12 students in career exploration, academic planning, and skills development. It provides educators with data-driven insights to support student success, helping school districts make informed decisions. Xello is looking to enhance its survey platform to improve their means of data collection, enhance the […]
