This project will accelerate heavy mineral separation and analysis and remove the need to involve toxic heavy liquids in the mineral separation procedure. It will accelerate data production by developing new analytical procedures. It will also develop new ways of correlating the composition of detrital minerals to the presence of ore bodies in stream catchments. […]

There is growing concern from cat owners and veterinarians regarding the dietary macronutrient compositions of commercial cat foods compared to the typical prey of a wild cat and whether this difference is a potential driver for the increased prevalence of obesity in cats. This has resulted in industry trends steering away from high carbohydrate inclusions […]

This research aims at developing a rapid testosterone test kit using lateral flow assay technology, a technology used for example in routine pregnancy tests, but in a quantitative manner that can inform the user of the exact concentration of analyte in the blood sample. The quantification of the assay will be performed by integrating the […]

This project will evaluate simple methods for collecting and preparing saliva samples for concussion biomarker research. The work will compare different collection approaches to determine which provides more consistent results. All experiments will use artificial saliva, allowing the methods to be tested in a controlled laboratory setting without using human samples. The results will help […]

PROVA Innovations Ltd. is developing WithinStride®, a Canadian-designed smart insole system that supports gait rehabilitation using wearable technology and connected digital health tools. The system is intended to help individuals with mobility challenges improve their walking patterns and support recovery in both home and clinical environments. This project will focus on strengthening the overall performance, […]

ESI’s current focus is product research and development (R&D), and commercialization activities. The R&D pipeline furthers the technology (hardware, software), systems, and collects/analyzes the data required to ensure device operations and regulatory compliance. Device R&D will refine and miniaturize the metasurface, enhance antennae, and complete software integration (signal and image processing, hardware integration, AI-driven decision-making). […]

This project will help Harvest Systems improve how the performance of its waste heat recovery technology is tracked and reported. By creating a secure system that automatically aggregates and analyzes data from installed units, the project will generate clear reports on energy savings and system performance. This will help restaurants lower energy costs and reduce […]

This project will focus on engaging an intern Intern to work with our team on producing best-in-class 3D bioprinting inks. In this project, the intern will be positioned within our core team, providing support across multiple product development and quality assurance functions. As part of the start-up experience, the intern will also be involved in […]

Tression is a Canadian health-focused apparel company preparing to launch a new category of graduated compression garments designed to support everyday wellness. As the company transitions from product development to commercialization, it requires structured systems to support scalable growth across marketing, customer experience, and clinical partnerships. This project will focus on designing and implementing a […]

This project will design a new AI system to help Ciena’s Blue Planet division automatically understand and solve complex problems in communication networks. Currently, AI tools can only answer simple, fact-based questions. The research intern will develop a more advanced “GraphRAG” system that connects all network data—like equipment status and error logs—into a smart knowledge […]

L’érable rouge (Acer rubrum), espèce en expansion au Québec sous l’effet des changements climatiques, demeure sous-valorisé faute de données techniques intégrées reliant ses propriétés à des usages industriels. Le projet vise à caractériser scientifiquement ce bois pour identifier ses applications optimales en produits biosourcés.

Ce projet vise à s’attaquer à une limitation critique qui entrave la capacité de l’industrie du recyclage du plastique à vendre son produit, les plastiques recyclés, sur le marché. Lors de l’achat de plastiques recyclés sous forme de granulés, les clients exigent que le plastique possède des propriétés qui soient aussi proches que possible de […]
