EFFET DES GREFFES RACINAIRES SURLA RÉPONSE DES ARBRES AUX COUPESPARTIELLES

L’épinette noire est une espèce commerciale et des éclaircies sont couramment pratiquées pour en
augmenter la productivité. Pourtant, les résultats ne sont pas toujours ceux escomptés. Il est important
de comprendre pourquoi l’effet sur la croissance peut parfois être absent. Chez le pin gris, il a été
démontré que la réponse à l’éclaircie commerciale était influencée par la présence de greffes racinaires
(fusion entre les racines d’arbres distincts). Après éclaircie, les arbres greffés avaient une croissance
inférieure car les racines (et souches) des arbres coupés survivaient en drainant une partie des
ressources mises en commun, limitant ainsi la croissance des arbres non coupés. L’objectif de ce projet
est de déterminer l’effet des greffes sur la réponse de l’épinette noire à l’éclaircie commerciale. En
développant nos connaissances sur la dynamique souterraine des pessières noires, cette recherche a
comme objectif de mieux comprendre les incohérences observées en sylviculture et de mieux anticiper
les futurs travaux sylvicoles.

Development and Testing of an Augmented Reality First Aid Training Program

The objective of this project is to develop and test a first aid training program using Augmented Reality (AR), a technology that superimposes computer-generated animations on a user’s view of the real world, in the context of lifesaving education. Education is an industry that is currently being transformed using the latest technologies. In the advancing healthcare industry, the uses of such technologies as AR, medical animation, online learning, and simulation are quickly becoming the standard for delivering accessible, interactive, and high-quality training. PULSE Lifesaving Inc. is working in collaboration with applied research partners Mohawk College and McMaster University to develop a prototype first aid program using AR for deployment and product testing.

Génération de nanoparticules dans le but de développerun vaccin Universel contre la grippe

L’objectif à long terme de ce projet de recherche est de mettre au point un vaccin universel contre le
virus de la grippe. Pour ce faire, nous developperons un procédé de manufacture d’une protéine du
virus influenza et tenterons d’améliorer son immunogénicité en augmentant sa complexicité via la
formation de nanoparticules. Des essais d’immmunisation et de protection en souris seront effectués
afin de valider l’efficacité de ce concept. Le vaccin universel contre la grippe permettra de protéger la
population envers toutes les souches du virus de la grippe, incluant les souches pandémiques. De
plus, ce vaccin sera produit dans des bactéries à faible coût. Comme la production de protéines
recombinantes est le moyen le plus efficace et rapide de production dans le domaine
pharmaceutique, il s’agit d’un avantage concurrentiel sur les autres approches utilisées aujourd’hui…TOBECONT’D

Customer Experience Coordinator

With COVID-19, a number of challenges have surfaced for landlords. There have been numerous rent relief programs and new policies surrounding rent abatement and supplementation to assist tenants, meaning increased contact and need for research on the landlord’s behalf. We are seeing increased vacancy in our portfolio as well as slower lease-up of vacant spaces. Furthermore, COVID-19 has introduced some logistical challenges to the lease up of residential space.
Retention of our renters and leasing vacant space to new renters is key to our continued survival as a small property management firm; the Mitacs internship student will focus on improving our service interactions with both existing and potential renters, which is key to ensuring their continued satisfaction.

Business Strategy Internship: Marketing Research

The Dobson Lagasse Centre has entered a time of great uncertainty since March 2020. Plans by the university are in flux. A second wave may change current plans. How to provide students with experiential learning opportunities and how to provide them with entrepreneurial skills in a time of physical distancing are unclear.
COVID-19 has had an important effect on business and jobs in the Eastern Townships, to which the DLC needs to respond. The the support of this marketing research internship, what the needs are and how the DLC should be assisting will be clarified and established.

Agartee Technology had been providing a real-time monitoring solution using wearables and other smart devices for seniors with respiratory ailments (COPD & Asthma). These are the population most at risk from serious or deadly outcomes for COVID- 19. Both based on the companies initiative and at the request of various stakeholders (Govt. entities, clinicians, partners and customers), they have reworked their COPD solution for the real-time monitoring of COVID-19 symptoms. The system is already being tested or deployed in Long-term Care homes in Ontario and Quebec, but are getting requests for information from around the world. Agartee is looking to expand their reach to long term care homes and other facilities in various regions and need help with their marketing efforts. They are looking for someone to assist with and hopefully manage, both our outbound and inbound digital marketing efforts.

Structural and Thermal Analysis of an Insulated EPP Wall Panel System Design

Factory-built structural insulated panels are used for off-site building construction to minimize the labour needed for construction framing, which aims to save construction time and improve the quality of the installation. The panels, instead of using wood or steel framing, are the structural support for walls. Although the insulated panels provide structure, additional reinforcements are needed in order for the panels to be used on a multi-storey residential building. Using numerical simulations, this research investigates the predicted locations where the addition of such reinforcements would promote excessive heat loss through the walls which leads to increased energy consumption for the host building. The structural design of the panels would then be revised in the aim of minimizing heat loss. The partner organization is focused on developing energy efficient construction products and the outcomes of this research would provide insight to further improve and develop the proposed insulated panels in consideration of sustainability and energy efficiency.
