This internship project will be exponential in expanding the brand name and the customer base. The interns will conduct market and comparative research and will develop further relationships by contacting prospective qualifying clients. In addition, the project involves conducting a market search to identify and compare various costs of machinery parts. The interns leading this […]

Protection from laser light has become increasingly important due to the proliferation of cheaper and more powerful laser systems, especially in regards to interference with aircraft operations. Laser attacks, otherwise known as laser illuminations can be serious safety risks for aircraft operations as it can cause temporary flash blindness or irreversible injuries to the eyes […]

The production of formate salts – one of the most preferable chemicals for de-icing via electrocatalytic CO2 reduction is currently a promising technology. Lignocellulosic biomass is a potential material for the manufacture of electrocatalysts because of not only its great abundance and availability but its conversion inducing graphite-based materials, which are excellent catalyst supports. The […]

Business transformation involves firms changing their business models to pursue new opportunities. The ambitions of transformation are to enhance a firm’s competitiveness. Transformation is risky—literature highlights that transformation efforts often fail; reasons include firms not having the sufficient competencies or enough capital to carry the changes through. As Canadian forest sector firms look to new […]

Research is committed to developing innovative solutions to meet the demands of the construction industry in a scientific base. New engineering processes are established, through investigations and research, to improve quality, design and product cost. Integrating fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars into lightweight self-consolidating concrete (LWSCC) would effectively contribute to producing lighter and more durable reinforced […]

The manufacture of “smart devices” requires a large number of connected, low-cost embedded digital systems that are typically electronically connected on circuit boards. Our project develops a system to integrate functional materials directly into these boards which can provide or extend the capabilities of devices with functionalities such as memory, batteries or sensors. We develop […]

The aim of the project is to develop innovative workflows to recover genetic material (DNA & RNA) from human microbiome samples collected in DNA Genotek’s devices. The project will also test novel genome-editing tools (i.e. CRISPR) and their ability to selectively remove human DNA in samples containing high quantities of host background. The project will […]

In collaboration with Acadia University and Nova Scotia Power, Innovasea inc. proposes an intern to determine route choice, and measure survival of Atlantic salmon smolt as they descend the Gaspereau River past the White Rock Hydropower Generating Station. This project will be completed in full collaboration with Fisheries and Oceans Canada Scientists. The results will […]

The proposed project aims to construct a robust and versatile roll-to-roll (R2R) magnetron sputtering system for thin film deposition. That system will favor the production of thin films of different materials with tailored properties and functionality onto flexible substrates in a single step. This will be made through a system composed of different stations with […]

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been recognized as one of the top three major threats to public health besides cancers and climate change. In response to the AMR crisis, there is an urgent need to establish a standardized, user-friendly, on-site testing method for real-time data collection, analysis, and integration. Drug-resistant Salmonella is a representative foodborne pathogen […]

Hybrid Power Solutions Inc. was founded in 2015 in response to the need for better-performing portable electric systems. The potential of electric systems has yet to be grasped, and with the advent of battery technology, compact componentry, and miniature high-power motors, the time is now. Hybrid Power Solutions produces patent-pending portable battery systems and customized […]
