This project will address the enterprise segment of the market for online tool that assess COVID-19 risks by adding various advance onboarding and account management features to the product app.

The MSc graduate will be employed to assist with the research and development of the ApertumX platform as it relates to Electric Effect’s proprietary ML/AI processes combined with Blockchain.

The goal of the project is to develop novel strain-specific bio-sensors capable of distinguishing low concentrations of pathogenic bacteria in near-real-time regime. The sensor technology will be developed alongside automated sampling and processing platform capable of independent operation at a food processing and water treatment plants. The sensor technology development will include investigation of electrochemical and opto-magnetic detection technologies and will be based on company’s previous work in the area of pathogen sensor development.

The emerging clean meat market is gaining considerable traction as consumers are increasingly making food choices based on ethical and environmental concerns. Plant-based meat producers already have products on sale in grocery stores and fast food chains nationwide. In addition, companies developing lab grown meat utilizing animal cells are raising significant investments and are expected to enter the marketplace in the coming years. Spiderwort is a biomaterials company which has developed novel plant-based materials for numerous high value applications, including for the development of clean meat. The goal of this project is to further refine the processes for developing 3D materials for plant- and cell-based meat.

The project will focus on the development of software platform to enable end-to-end 3D workflows within engineering and construction projects including capture, storage, geo-referenced indexing and holographic visualization of project data in support of virtual collaboration.
