The proposed project will explore how our new low-noise microwave oscillator technology can meet real needs in radar and communication systems. We will interview industry experts to understand what performance, environmental reliability, and cost requirements are most important for practical use. At the same time, we will work with manufacturers to see whether our design […]

The proposed Research Plan is to evaluate the active targeting effect of glycan ligands for the delivery of conjugated lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to human bone marrow CD34 + hematopoietic stem and pluripotent cells (HSPCs) and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) such as T cells and B cells. A reporter mRNA will be formulated into […]

Les changements climatiques posent un défi croissant pour l’approvisionnement en énergies renouvelables au Québec. Au-delà de l’hydroélectricité, déjà bien étudiée, des filières comme l’éolien, le solaire, la biomasse, la géothermie et le gaz naturel renouvelable (GNR) demeurent sous-analysées. Pourtant, elles sont appelées à jouer un rôle clé dans la transition énergétique de la province. Ces […]

Draft & Goal (D&G) is a Canadian artificial intelligence (AI) company developing a no-code platform that automates marketing workflows using AI agents for writing, search engine optimization, and fact-checking. The integration of large language models (LLMs) is central to their software solution: it allows non-technical users to harness advanced AI for content creation. However, unlike […]

This project explores microwave-assisted thermal treatment as a sustainable method to both degrade organic contaminants and regenerate granular activated carbon (GAC) used in water treatment. The goal is to determine whether high-power microwaves can desorb and break down pollutants from spent GAC while preserving its structure and extending its adsorptive life. A range of micropollutants […]

Ce projet de recherche porte sur l’adoption de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) par les entreprises québécoises qui œuvrent dans le secteur du commerce entre entreprises (B2B). L’objectif est de mieux comprendre comment ces organisations intègrent l’IA dans leurs activités, quels bénéfices elles en retirent, mais aussi quels défis humains, financiers et organisationnels elles rencontrent. Pour y […]

Optical satellite imagery used for monitoring the Earth’s dynamic surface is frequently limited by persistent cloud cover. This creates significant data gaps and inconsistencies in daily surface reflectance products. This project aims to advance how we combine optical data with different data modalities that can see through clouds, like active radar and passive microwave data. […]

The McKenna Institute and ContactNB are collaborating on an initiative to promote AI adoption and responsible use within New Brunswick’s contact centre industry, aiming to enhance productivity, competitiveness, and sustainability by supporting SMEs with AI integration, workforce training, academic collaboration, and attracting investment in the business services sector.

The interns will first conduct market research to determine the demands of the current life sciences industry, including pharmaceutical companies, gene therapy development companies, and companies that offer transgenic animal models. With this data, the interns will work together using a proprietary machine-learning algorithm from Re:Pair Genomics to design a catalog of 5-10 different compact, […]

This research project will contribute to the literature on Canada’s criminal justice system by using de-identified race-based data from Nova Scotia’s Department of Justice to understand Black people’s experiences in the province’s correctional facilities. It addresses two main problems: Gaps in knowledge about Black people’s experiences in provincial correctional facilities, and the need to improve […]

This innovation project focuses on developing an advanced generative AI-powered platform designed to visualize consumer preference data for interior design products through intuitive, dynamic preference maps and visualization tools. The aim is to simplify and enhance the process of product selection for both consumers and interior design professionals, significantly streamlining decision-making and procurement processes. The […]
