In this project, the intern will work closely with the staff of Xanadu, a quantum computing company, to develop educational materials intended for an audience who are comfortable with classical computer programming, but have no prior knowledge or experience with quantum physics or quantum computers. By using interactive, web-based instructional materials, and animated graphics, the […]

COVID-19 is an unprecedented public health emergency affecting every industry. As we wait to develop treatments and vaccines to protect individuals from COVID-19, we must develop strategies to protect workers in Canada’s vital industries. In the absence of any adaptation strategy, risk of infection will continue to threaten the health and safety of workers. This […]

Lake Utopia Paper is interested in developing and improving the birch NSSC pulping process for the production of corrugating medium. The primary objective of this project is to develop delignification and sulfonation models for process control of NSSC pulping of birch. In addition, the relationship between the NSSC pulping process and the properties of the […]

To address the global concerns regarding climate changes and increase of earth temperature, carbon dioxide emission has to be removed/reduced. A major source of Co2 emission is transportation vehicles, which account for close to 30% of Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions. An active method to reduce this significant contribution to global warming is electrification of transportation […]

Instruments for monitoring human metabolism (CPX) represent a distinct Qubit product line (VOCO) with markets within and external to our traditional academic markets. As well as being used for research and teaching purposes, the equipment could be used in gyms and sports clubs worldwide, providing scientifically accurate data concerning personal fitness related to metabolic rate. […]

Shimco has invested significant resources to develop a proprietary smart shim (“IntelliShimTM). IntelliShim utilizes a self-powering nano material to which sensors may be affixed for use in Diagnostic, Prognostic & Health Management aerospace (DPHM) and industrial applications. This technology would allow sensors to be affixed to any mechanical structure locations on which a shim is […]

The popular idea of a successful career or livelihood is defined by the amount of money or fame earned. Most of the popular motivational books/speeches put forward the idea that a successful career can be achieved through personal hard work, resilience, and maximizing productivity. But the role of historical and socio-economic factors is not discussed […]

The CleanAir.ai customer base has been commercial for the past year and would like to de-risk and diversify it’s business model by tapping into the consumer segment. The consumer segment represents a $476.4M market share (20% of total market) and is understood to be a major untapped market for CleanAir.ai. This can be seen through […]

There are many process and raw materials distinctions between brewing beer at large, multinational scales and at small, regional craft scales. However, the longstanding dominance of large industry players means most available data on brewing are derived from studies conducted at large scales. There is much yet to understand about quality and efficiency outcomes of […]

The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on everyone and was heavily covered by the media. Studies have shown that the pandemic itself and the media coverage might have influenced the number of adverse drug reactions that were reported to regulatory agencies. This project aims at determining how it affected the reporting of all adverse drug […]

The proposed research aims to 3D print a series of heat exchangers in plastic and metal to optimize the pressure drop and heat transfer. An initial prototype will produce experimental data to validate a numerical model, which can then be used to rapidly evaluate future heat exchanger designs. Optimizing the pressure drop and heat transfer […]

Chaque maladie orpheline n’affecte qu’un nombre restreint de personnes, soit environ 1 sur 100 000 selon l’Agence canadienne des médicaments et des technologies de la santé. On estime toutefois qu’entre 1 et 3 millions de citoyens canadiens en sont atteints. Ces derniers font face à divers enjeux d’accessibilité aux traitements pour leur maladie (délais, peu […]
