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 […]

The Medventions Atlantic – NL program is based on the proven model from Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre which enables high-performing students and recent graduates from diverse academic backgrounds to engage directly with frontline clinical and innovation challenges. The interns are embedded within clinical environments to identify unmet needs, apply early-stage innovation thinking, and co-develop solutions […]

This project aims to create and deliver an online curriculum which will teach clinicians about the Women-Centred HIV Care (WCHC) Model while help ensure clinicians provide more equitable, trauma-informed, gender-responsive, person-centred care to women and gender-diverse people living with HIV. Women and gender-diverse people living with HIV often face barriers such as stigma, discrimination, or […]

Calcific tendinopathy (CT) is a staged, reactive process where pre-calcific changes are followed by a calcific phase (formative, resting, resorptive) and by post-calcific remodelling in which hydroxyapatite-like deposits form and quite often resorb spontaneously. CT is most prevalent in the neck, foot and hip and within the foot. The Achilles is a well-documented site of […]

D’après de nombreuses études, le mode de pédalage excentrique (longueur du muscle augmente durant l’effort) semble être un mode de travail intéressant pour le bas du corps, l’objectif est donc d’éclaircir la voie pour ce qui est du haut du corps. L’analyse comparative des forces musculaires permettra d’avoir une idée plus précise des atouts de […]

This project, led by Women’s College Hospital’s Institute for Health System Solutions and Virtual Care (WIHV), will evaluate the implementation of Registered Nurse (RN) prescribing in Ontario. Through focus groups with prescribing and non-prescribing RNs, the project will identify barriers and enablers to adoption, as well as organizational and system-level factors influencing uptake. Findings will […]

Leadless (wireless) Cardiac Pacemakers (LCPs) were developed to overcome complications of traditional pacemakers, such as lead fracture, dislodgement, and infection. Despite their advantages, current LCPs face major limitations. This project aims to recharge LCPs using electric fields, enabling advanced functions such as inter-device synchronization without increasing device size or altering established titanium encapsulation methods used […]

Newfoundland and Labrador welcomes over 28,000 seafarers each year who support key sectors such as offshore energy, fisheries, and international trade. Despite the province’s deep maritime heritage, St. John’s remains the only major Canadian port without a dedicated Seafarers’ Centre. This gap limits access to essential welfare services, rest facilities, and communication support for visiting […]

The main obj ective of this project is to design a proper algoritlun for analyzing COPD patient’s sleep data as an important feature in patients treatment procedure. The data would be gathered by a novel wrist wearable actigraph with high accuracy technology. The wearable wristactigraph will allow more reliable data collection because the subjects can […]

Female breasts experience large displacements during physical activities such as running and jumping. This can lead to problems such as breast discomfort, and even chronic neck and back pain. However, correctly designed sports bras can alleviate some of these symptoms, and enable women to exercise with greater comfort. lululemon Athletica strives to develop a sports […]

This project will develop a real-time Artificial Intelligence based system that accurately estimates 3D skeletal pose from monocular video of dogs and reliably classifies fundamental behaviors to support veterinary health monitoring and behavioral assessment applications. Recent research has demonstrated significant progress in automated animal behavior recognition. The intersection of computer vision, animal behavior analysis, and […]
