Developing a novel cryo-microfluidic device for ultra-rapid, cryoprotectant-free cell preservation. The project advances prototype design, testing, and market validation to improve biotechnology and regenerative medicine applications in Canada.

This project focuses on developing a market and regulatory strategy for GlucoSmart Nanogel, an innovative Canadian-made wound-healing therapy designed for people with diabetes. The nanogel combines infection control, immune modulation, and tissue repair in a single, affordable treatment to improve healing outcomes for diabetic foot ulcers. Over four months, the project will evaluate regulatory requirements, […]

MPWash develops a reusable, cartridge-free filter that captures microplastics released during laundry. The project advances prototype validation, regulatory readiness, and commercialization to reduce pollution and strengthen Canada’s cleantech leadership.

Older adults have difficulty keeping track of the frequency of their dosage as well as opening the medication packaging. Nonadherence to prescribed medication can lead to hospitalization which increases the burden of care both for the patients and the medication system. Our solution, Pillsette, is a smart medication adherence device that offers a reusable pill […]

Le bras robotisé JACO de Kinova Robotics® fait l’objet de recherche en continu afin de couvrir toute l’étendue des connaissances sur ses impacts sur les utilisateurs au Québec. Ce projet se donne comme objectif de réaliser une analyse secondaire d’entrevues précédemment menées dans la province de Québec auprès de 21 utilisateurs du bras robotisé JACO […]

Current implantable biomaterials often rely on synthetic or animal-derived polymers, which can be costly, poorly biocompatible, or environmentally unsustainable. There is growing interest in finding plant-based or fungal alternatives that meet the demanding requirements of medical-grade applications. Chinova Bioworks, a Canadian biotechnology company, specializes in producing chitosan from mushrooms for use in preservative applications. The […]

In today’s world, organizations such as banks, schools, and hospitals rely on artificial intelligence (AI) to help make important decisions, from assessing credit risk to detecting fraud. A new type of AI, called Tabular Foundation Models (TFMs), shows great promise for these kinds of tasks. Unlike traditional systems that require heavy retraining, TFMs can quickly […]

This project will help make it easier for scientists and data engineers to work with a powerful type of satellite data called hyperspectral imagery, which captures detailed information about the Earth’s surface. While this data can support important work in areas like climate, agriculture, and environmental monitoring, it’s often difficult to use without specialized training […]

La mission de PhonIA est d’aider les écoles, les orthopédagogues, les orthophonistes et les enseignants à mieux accompagner les élèves présentant des difficultés d’apprentissage. PhonIA a donc développé des outils automatisés de dépistage, d’évaluation et de suivi des difficultés d’apprentissage disponibles via une plateforme numérique. Ces outils permettent d’optimiser et d’améliorer les services professionnels. Les […]

Le projet vise à initier le développement d’un cadre méthodologique ESG que les organisations pourront utiliser pour mieux évaluer l’impact environnemental, éthique et social de leurs projets numériques, et qui pourrait être intégré dans l’outil d’évaluation des projets numériques de Prompt.

Principales activités du partenaire : L’entreprise offre des services de développement et d’exploitation de solutions informatiques. Problématique et avantages escomptés du projet : Le but de ce projet est d’inférer un profil psychométrique (OCEAN) à partir de questionnaires clients n’incluant pas de questions explicitement psychométriques. On recherchera également des variables contextuelles pertinentes pour enrichir les […]

Stratospheric balloons operate above more than 99% of the Earth’s atmosphere, allowing astronomers to observe colours of light that would otherwise be blocked or blurred by the atmosphere at only a tiny fraction of the cost of an equivalent space telescope. However, it is very challenging to ensure that to telescopes are pointing the right […]
