Federal and provincial governments are expected to approve release of treated oil sands process water (OSPW) into the Athabasca River to mitigate overabundance of mine wastewater and enable mine reclamation and closure. Concern is growing about the potential for downstream impacts on aquatic ecosystems at the Peace-Athabasca Delta. This project will generate critical knowledge to […]

This project aims to improve the delivery of omega-3 oils—nutrients that readily degrade during digestion, by developing soft liquid–liquid capsules that protect these oils as they pass through the gastrointestinal tract. Initial formulation and testing will be conducted at the University of Waterloo, where capsules will be created to achieve high stability and controlled release. […]

This project will contribute to the design and building of the systems behind our clinical-facing applications for automated point-of-care ultrasound interpretation. Working closely with our product, AI, and regulatory teams, the project focuses on building real-time respiratory imaging tools that bring immediate diagnostic answers to patients — whether at the bedside, in the back of […]

The aim of this project is to study and develop the formalism of spacetime superposition. The focus will be to understand the behaviour of simple quantum systems in the vicinity of black hole horizons. In this physical scenario, both quantum theory and general relativity remain valid, but the question of what happens cannot be answered […]

This project addresses the challenge of designing compact, field-deployable electrolyzer systems for producing hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a safe and effective antimicrobial agent with growing relevance in wound care, humanitarian response, and combat casualty care. Despite HOCl’s broad-spectrum efficacy and favorable safety profile, current production systems are bulky, proprietary, and poorly suited to decentralized use. The […]

This project investigates whether it is possible to use today’s commercial semiconductor technologies to build next generation of quantum devices and the electronics needed to control them at extremely low temperatures. Early research suggests this may be possible in modern semiconductor processes, offering a promising path toward more accessible, scalable quantum hardware. The project has […]

The intern listed (Divena Raina) on this particular application will work alongside the Government of Alberta on the Smart Document Extraction Agent team. The goal of a Government of Alberta Redaction Assistant would be to empower the government to handle sensitive information and access requests with greater eff iciency and security. ? Focus: using the […]

Picton Mahoney Asset Management (“PICTON Investments”) was founded in 2004 to provide unique investment solutions to institutional, retail, and high-net-worth investors in Canada and globally. The Quantitative Research and Risk team at PICTON Investments is dedicated to developing and maintaining models that support investment decisions and risk assessments. With the increasing complexity of financial markets […]

Goosechase is a Canadian platform that helps schools, nonprofits, and businesses run interactive, mission-based activities like onboarding, orientation, museum tours, and team training. Today, creating these experiences and checking large numbers of photo, video, and text submissions is slow and manual, especially in education, where safety and privacy are critical. This project will build AI […]

This project aims to democratize access to advanced surgical navigation by developing an open-source, AI-enabled training and guidance system for ultrasound-guided kidney procedures. Built entirely within the free 3D Slicer platform, the system combines real-time tracking and deep-learning segmentation to help trainees and clinicians visualize kidney structures and plan safer, more precise punctures. The collaboration […]

1QBit is midway through our effort to create a software suite (Topological Quantum Architecture Design (TopQAD)) that automates quantum architecture design and enables you to study the impact of quantum algorithm and FTQC component design choices on resource requirements. It can be used to support scientific research, product development, and quantum computing policy and investment […]

The project will transfer academic research findings about extractive development on Kaska Dena territory to Kaska Dena organizations. It will involve three activities: 1) making research findings accessible to community members, policy-makers, and government organizations involved in impact assessment through reports and other tools; 2) supporting the development of a database of Kaska Dena knowledges […]
