Southern mountain caribou inhabit high elevation forests and parkland in late winter when snow depth facilitates access to arboreal lichens, their preferred winter food source. Use of these habitats coincides with human recreational use of these same areas by helicopter skiing, commercial backcountry skiing and snowmobiling (backcountry recreation). The COVID-19 related travel restrictions implemented in […]

Canada is considered to be one of the leading nations in nature conservation. Greenheart specializes in the design and construction of aerial trails. University of British Columbia (UBC) is a world renowned institute for structural engineering research. This Mitacs Intern Program is intended to create a robust research program that allows UBC researchers to collaborate […]

Surgical manipulation (e.g., injections, electrode placement) in the developing mouse brain is essential for neuroscientists in order to study the structure and function of the brain and behaviour. Unfortunately, most atlases used in targeting are based on static adult mouse anatomical brain features. Here we propose the use of 4-dimentional (4D) brain atlases (time being […]

This phase will concentrate on providing a means of transferring data from the Polar Data Catalogue in a CCADI approved format. This will include analysis of the Polar Data Catalogue data and comparison to CCADI’s standards, and creating a Extract Load Transform (ETL) processes to transfer the data to the Arctic Research Foundation platform.

Large quantities of data are constantly acquired during underwater acoustic surveys for environmental monitoring and resources management. The data, visualized as 2D images, are typically analyzed manually or semi-automatically by experts (marine biologists, acousticians, oceanographers), which is time-consuming and prone to errors and inter-expert disagreements. The goal of the proposed research project is to develop […]

The Peace River Break is in the north east section of the province situated at the narrowest point of the Rocky Mountain range allowing for critical movement and ecological connections east-west over the Rockies and north-south between the mountain national parks and the Muskwa-Kechika Management area to the north. The purpose of this research project […]

One of the essential components of a lithium-ion battery is its electrodes, with the most common type comprising conducting coatings applied to both sides of a metal foil. The goal of this project is to develop a sensor for measuring thickness, conductivity, dielectric response and moisture content of the coating. The main challenge of this […]

Our research provides time-cost and financial effective solutions for construction projects and customers. The solutions include a performing of the graph represented generative floorplan, the scalable and user-participated framework. This research targets performing an end-to-end generative pipeline to conduct valid schematic floor plan designs for contextual adjustment representation of any functional buildings. The goals are […]

Parados is seeking a dynamic group of students to prepare for our initial launch. Parados Cerebral Solutions Inc. is a multiple award-winning start-up, founded in 2020 that helps assess, monitor and improve key physical & mental predictors of health and performance. As a team of engineers and advisors with personal experience as pro athletes, coaches, […]

Renewable hydrogen (H2) carriers such as methanol (MeOH) can be reformed back into H2 and is a fundamental chemical conversion for the long-term viability of the H2 economy due to its high density and ease of transportability compared to H2. MeOH is an especially important carrier as it is a simple C1 chemical that can […]

Have you ever imagined a world where you can control everything at home and at work with your voice, even without having to read an instruction manual? Speech technologies based on artificial intelligence models promise to make that happen by teaching machines to recognize voice. However, these systems currently support only a few languages, and […]

Clean electrochemical energy conversion is critically needed to build energy security that reduces Canada’s reliance on fossil fuels. The polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell is a particularly important part of a clean energy future as an attractive alternative to the internal combustion engine for transportation applications. PEM fuel cells offer zero local emissions, fast-start […]
