Firefighters risk their lives every day to protect ours. Their protective clothing is critical to allow them performing their duties while remaining safe. Unfortunately, the performance of their protective clothing degrades over time as it is exposed to high heat, UV light, moisture, launderings, etc., which raises serious safety concerns for firefighters and other people […]

The objective of this project is to help analyze nutrition data of select ingredients and define how processing methodologies affect nutrition composition.

DECAP’s market, which is needle safety devices, has few competitors with little to no online presence. Market data on these products is difficult to find, or non-existent. The intern will be conducting marketing activities including SEO, Advertising, Digital Marketing, and Marketing Research, and will be responsible for creation of all components for these activities.

Wig is a wearable device that can be used to help with many aspects of our lives. Since it is in close contact with the human body, it makes it a great tool for human health monitoring. This can be done through the hidden sensors in wigs that keep collecting information about physical and mental […]

Seaweeds naturally produce polymers that hold great potential as a building block for bioplastics, which has been piloted globally but still nascent in Canada. This project establishes a partnership between Bioform Solutions Inc. and the University of Victoria Green Safe Water Lab, to develop a seeds-to-solution protocol for converting kelp into higher value bioplastics. The […]

Lorsqu’une personne reçoit un diagnostic de diabète de type 2, elle rentre chez-elle, perdue et effrayée et se réfère aux histoires les plus négatives trouvées sur internet à propos de son diagnostic. Notre système de santé surmené laisse peu de temps aux professionnels épuisés pour informer les patients de manière optimale sur leur nouvelle réalité […]
