Level Up - Health Care Data Analytics and Logistics Database Design

Positions Available: 1 Nimble Science has developed a first in kind medical device that can sample your true, inner microbiome. The possible impacts on human and animal health are endless. The efficient collection, management and analysis of data obtained from the capsule will be an integral part of its role in advancing health. This project challenges a student to lead the design and implementation of a database capable of managing operational logistics (order fulfillment, device return and processing, data analytics and reporting). The database will consider privacy, data ownership and access and will be designed to support machine learning. Project Steps: 1. Work with the Nimble team to learn more about our device and the intended data sets. 2. Research, compare and select the database platform. 3. Collect and develop a first set of requirements, identify entities, attributes and plan relationships. 4. Create a visual plan for the database using your preferred design tool. 5. Begin to architect the functionality and plan for implementation. 6. Still time? Progress to a working model.

Prototype Design: Interactive Remote Learning

Available Positions: 1 - 3 Our Company Banging Rocks uses Emerging Media for positive impact, with an emphasis on transdisciplinary arts. Interactive Remote Learning Our founder is developing K-12 course material for use in remote learning. Based on the BC “New Curriculum”, this will include a combination of commercial off-the-shelf software and custom tools to deliver realtime, interactive and engaging content on a wide range of subjects. This Riipen project centers specifically on the design and initial prototyping for two test sessions, one astronomical the other biological. The Project We will be incorporating both off the shelf tools (OBS, Teams, Lens Studio and others) and potentially custom created tools, and will be extending the tools made by the University of British Columbia’s “Digital Dream Play” team from the Emerging Media Lab for this purpose. Deliverables will include documentation, and co-creation of a simple prototype for one or two 45 minute sessions for primary school children. The student will have the option to help deliver a presentation to grade 3 and 5 classes. The Student The student selected should have a familiarity with STEM education, a proficiency with UI/UX considerations and be a fast learner on a range of technologies. The ability to clearly document processes and tools is also key.
