This MITACS project between the University of Waterloo (UW, host supervisor: Prof. Na Young Kim) and Yonsei University (YU, home supervisors: Prof. Jong-Souk Yeo and Prof. Chae-Yeun Park) aims to develop a room-temperature exciton-polariton quantum simulator. The room-temperature system can contribute to solving a complex many-body problem, since it does not require cryogenic cooling that […]

Fenix Alma Solutions Inc. is a Canadian EdTech company that develops VidaNovaVLE™, a purpose-built, partner-driven Virtual Learning Environment designed specifically for medical and health sciences education. The platform supports curriculum management, assessment, clinical scheduling, competency-based medical education, and accreditation reporting for leading institutions across North America.

The Township of Ramara is updating its Economic Development Strategy and Community Improvement Plan to better reflect current community and business needs. This project will support that process by collecting and analyzing data, researching best practices from other municipalities, and engaging residents and local businesses through surveys and interviews. The results will help the Township […]

One of the biggest mysteries in modern physics is “dark energy”. This strange form of energy makes up over half of our Universe and is causing space to expand faster and faster. Even 30 years after its Nobel Prize-winning discovery, we still have no clear idea what dark energy actually is. Scientists have come up […]

The goal of the project is to develop a series of standardized, performance-based computerized assessment tools for use in the examination of social cognition deficits in ASD. Drawing on the available experimental literature a number of potential assessment tasks will be identified, reviewed and configured for computer-based administration to children / youth with ASD. Programming […]

Plants are not passive bystanders, they sense their surroundings and react to threats through chemical and vibrational cues. A key example of this is when a plant detects volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by neighboring plants that have been damaged by herbivores. Green leaf volatiles (GLVs), a subset of VOCs released in the atmosphere, are […]

Researchers at the University of Waterloo are partnering with VanadiumCorp, Administration Gilles R. Dupuis Inc, and NanoNife to evaluate the performance of a redox flow battery stack prototype (9 cells, 9 × 500 cm²) developed by Administration Gilles R. Dupuis Inc and NanoNife. VanadiumCorp will supply the vanadium-based electrolyte, which will undergo conductivity optimization prior […]

The proposed project seeks to develop biocomposite technology and products for the auto manufacturing industries. Five graduate students under the supervision of Dr.Mohini Sain, will work on manufacturing processes, mechanical characterization, composite rheology and development of molds for various types of bio-composites which have direct application in auto-industries and can act as substitute for fossil […]

MeasleScan FET is a portable biosensor that uses field-effect transistor (FET) technology to detect measles virus rapidly at the point of care. Unlike current tests such as PCR and ELISA, which are accurate but slow, costly, and lab-dependent, this device delivers real-time, label-free detection directly from clinical samples. The goal is to provide a low-cost, […]

This project will validate the market and technical feasibility of Silver Vantage Software’s privacy-preserving thermal fall-detection system for senior care. The system uses small thermal sensors to detect falls automatically without recording identifiable images, protecting resident privacy while improving response times. Through this project, we will engage healthcare partners and facility operators to confirm product […]

My research project presents a unique perspective on the Turkish experience of modernity from the side of the discredited, disavowed and repressed, and thus contributes to a better understanding (and to a better identification of the failures) of the modernization in Turkey that predominated much of the twentieth century. It does this through an exploration […]

Diagnosing neurological conditions like epilepsy is often difficult because clinicians rely on brief, in-clinic brain activity recordings, which may miss crucial events. To solve this, our company, NexusNeuro, is developing a “Neurological Holter Monitor” — a discreet, wearable EEG device that allows for continuous, long-term brain monitoring in a patient’s everyday environment. While we have […]
