The design of usable public health information systems is critical in areas such as healthcare. In this project an analysis of the usability of a pan-Canadian public health information system will be conducted. The approach will involve application of usability engineering methods to identify issues and areas where the system’s user interface could be modified […]

The intern will be assisting the partner organization in setting up strategies to find and recruit customers. This will include researching direct to consumer marketing strategies as well as setting up the back end processes to create a good shopping experience. The intern will spend the first half of her internship leveraging her analytics skills […]

In this partnership, researchers from the University of Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Food Industry Development Centre aim to work collectively to create a novel type of “whole-cell” flours from Canadian pulses, such as pea, chickpea, and faba bean. In comparison with conventional pulse flours obtained from dry milling/grinding, the new pulse flours are anticipated to […]

Over 250,000 Canadians suffer from epilepsy, a debilitating neurological condition with no known cure. For many patients, the only solution is the surgical removal of the seizure-trigger zones in the brain. Unfortunately, current electrode systems that are designed to record brain activity and target the seizure foci are highly invasive, not very precise, and do […]

Global warming is a leading threat to humanity. Carbon capture, especially direct air capture (DAC), is the key to its reversal. The bottleneck of the DAC expansion is its high cost vs. the insufficient value of CO2. On the other hand, Atlantic Canada has unmet natural gas demand, especially after the termination of Sable and […]

Le projet vise à utiliser l’intelligence artificielle pour en venir, à terme, à analyser les données boursières pertinentes en lien avec une stratégie d’investissement de type “Qualité” et en extraire des indicateurs de cause à effet ayant un pouvoir prédictif par l’utilisation d’une approche de « Machine Learning » (« Deep Neural Network », « […]

This project will focus on the software development and service deployment of an artificial intelligence interface aimed to capture body measurements to facilitate sizing and fit for apparel production.The technology and IT industry is rapidly growing in Canada, and a lot of emphasis is laid on development in the artificial intelligence space. This project is […]

D’ici les trente prochaines années, il est anticipé que les deux tiers de la population mondiale résideront en milieu urbain. Cette statistique presse les villes à organiser leurs infrastructures dans une logique sans précédent afin de conserver ou d’améliorer la qualité de vie des citoyens. La rapidité avec laquelle la population croît et l’indisponibilité des […]

Afin de permettre à la Zone Technum de pleinement jouer son rôle de catalyseur d’innovation à Bromont et de co-création de nouvelles technologies, il est impératif d’installer dans son district un espace d’innovation en électronique de classe mondiale. Déjà, le C2Mi brille comme laboratoire de microélectronique et pourrait être un lieu propice à la création […]

La robotique collaborative offre de nouvelles possibilités d’automatisation particulièrement intéressantes pour exécuter des protocoles complexes de biologie moléculaire en utilisant des instruments conventionnels en laboratoire. Ceci permet d’automatiser des protocoles impossibles ou difficiles à l’aide de plateformes robotiques habituellement employées en sciences biologiques, en utilisant plutôt un bras robotique UR3 offrant une liberté de mouvement […]

Patients when they are discharged from hospital following a stroke can benefit greatly from a program of rehabilitation to help restore function. Often one of the patient’s arms is affected and this affects many activities of daily living. For patients who live in rural areas it is often very difficult to get access to expert […]

Presently, tunicates pose a serious challenge for the mussel aquaculture industry in PEI and Atlantic Provinces, which leads to a dramatic increase in the cost of production for both growers and processors. Although tunicate can be applied as the feedstock for the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), an abundant amount of protein-rich liquid stream is […]
