Aggression toward family/caregivers in childhood and adolescence (AFCCA) is a serious issue that impacts all family members in complex and interrelated ways. Despite its extensive and long-term consequences, there is limited research and even scarcer supports available for young people and their families affected by this form of family violence. Expanding on a pilot project […]

The Canadian Paralympic Committee’s vision is to be the world’s leading Paralympic nation. Its mission is to lead the development of a sustainable Paralympic sport system in Canada to enable athletes to reach the podium at the Paralympic Games. By supporting Canadian high-performance athletes with a disability and promoting their success, the Canadian Paralympic Committee […]

The overall objective for the internship of the student in the Finance and Accounting program is to learn to execute important processes of fundraising for technology companies. This work will be helping to address the financial and further influential needs, to help excel the solutions and opportunities provided by the Invitalize company. The Invitalize company […]

The purpose of this project is to commemorate Torontonians who died at the Battle of Dieppe in World War II. The intern will be researching the names of 129 people from Toronto who died on a single day at Dieppe. Information about these individuals, who they were, their families, their life prior to and during […]

Financial constraints are a significant barrier to sustainable practices within Canada’s cultural sector and especially within the performing arts. This situation has been exacerbated by COVID, with significant hits to economic impact and employment observed at the municipal level. In addition, physical space, digital fluency and access to technology are primary concerns for small/medium organizations. […]

The use of business process modeling (BPM) and analytics has demonstrated exceptional results in improving efficiency and effectiveness in various industries. Health care processes however, are characterized by uncertain, exception and continual evolution. This project aims to apply flexible, adaptive and evolutionary process modeling protocols coupled with operations research and other analytic methods to the […]

The goal of this project is to conduct market research and landscape analysis for potential areas that We-Watch may enter. The intern will be responsible for leveraging surveys conducted by We-Watch to find the best customer groups. Additionally, the intern will develop various customer personas in order to draft recommendations for which features the firm […]

The long-term effects of COVID-19 on individual health remain to be elucidated, with numerous reports emerging of fibrotic changes in the lung beyond the acute phase of the disease. Considering the reported cases of COVID-19 worldwide, even a small percentage of these patients developing lung fibrosis can have detrimental consequences on our healthcare system. In […]

During the proposed Mitacs Accelerate program time period, the intern (student researcher) will electrically evaluate, revise, and improve the integrated circuits himself designed for Peraso Technologies in winter 2013. This project will also include the design and implementation of a die package that hosts Peraso’s wireless communication systems including the integrated circuits designed by the […]

This research presents a new experimentally tuned reduced-order modeling methodology employing a hybrid stick model representation. Digital image correlation (DIC) is used to synthesize mode shapes within a frequency range of interest during Ground Vibration Testing (GVT). Experimental mode shapes are augmented into the Guyan Reduced Order Model (ROM) to develop a corresponding Craig-Bampton ROM. […]

Recently, a new foot orthotic design which adds texture between the skin at the bottom of feet and the top of an orthotic has gained academic attention. Adding this texture is intentional to activate the receptors in foot sole skin, to send this added stimulus into the spinal cord, and target changes in muscle activity […]
