This project provides a space for Inuk participants (community members) in Nunavut to discuss appropriate methods for conducting research related to healing in their community. Methods for data collection and collaborative data analysis will be determined in collaboration with the community partner as prescribed by the Aajiqaitigiingniq Research Methodology. This methodology outlines an Inuit-defined approach […]

Our airways are lined with mucus, transported by cilia in a process called the mucociliary escalator. This mucus protects against inhaled germs and pollutants but also poses a barrier to inhalable nanoparticles (NPs) used for drug or gene delivery. Understanding how NPs penetrate this layer is crucial. This internship uses Brownian dynamics simulations to study […]

This proposed study is an unprecedented attempt by a North American municipality to proactively identify and strengthen the components of its local value chain to inform a comprehensive strategy dedicated to growing opportunities in local advanced manufacturing, targeting increasingly interwoven value chains. Surrey has the space and existing capabilities to become an advanced manufacturing hub […]

Le stagiaire travaillera à définir les bons messages, les bons canaux et les bons formats pour faire rayonner Ludo de manière cohérente et inspirante. Une attention particulière […]

(1) the main activities of the partner ServiceNow develops a platform for client organizations to manage and automate large-scale processes across various industries. In 2020, ServiceNow acquired Element AI to strengthen its presence in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) research landscape and the Canadian AI ecosystem. This acquisition enabled the development of AI-driven products that improve […]

The global space sector has seen massive growth in recent years, fueled by lower launch costs and increased commercial access. Yet, many spacecrafts still rely on decade-old hardware designs. Innovation in spacecraft components remains limited. The industry’s strong preference for “space heritage” makes it slow to adopt cutting-edge systems, even if they are flight-proven by […]

GradFinder is an AI-powered platform that connects students looking for thesis-based graduate positions with professors who are actively recruiting. Right now, students waste time searching dozens of university websites and sending cold emails, while professors are overwhelmed with unqualified inquiries. This project will help GradFinder move from a working beta version to a polished, scalable […]

The proposed project will leverage AI technology and citizen science to improve the efficient and responsible use of pesticides in agriculture. Farmers and agronomists face significant challenges in identifying insect species in their crops. Many insects look similar, but while some are harmful pests causing severe crop losses, others are beneficial, acting as natural pest […]

The pattern of healthcare costs before and after a cancer diagnosis may differ according to immigration status and sex. The main aim of this study is to compare the healthcare costs of immigrants and non-immigrants before and after a cancer diagnosis. Another aim is to compare the differences in healthcare cost patterns between immigrants and […]

This project aims to help humans better understand their dogs by using artificial intelligence. Over four months, interns will develop AI models that can recognize dog behaviors—such as sitting, lying down, or showing signs of pain—by analyzing video, sound, and movement data collected from cameras or wearable devices. The research also includes developing tools to […]

This summer internship aims to build an annotated dataset for pulmonary embolism (PE) detection on ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) SPECT scans using diverse and multicenter imaging studies. This involves data cleaning, data categorization, and annotation of perfusion defects consistent with the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, and then use these data to train and validate diagnostic AI models […]

This project will be led by one intern and aims to enhance the GFIT Wellness app by developing and integrating two main features: (1) a Workout Logging System, and (2) a Smart Workout Generator powered by wearable device data. The intern will manage all aspects of the project—from backend development to front-end integration—while applying Agile […]
