Neural correlates of aphasia therapy after stroke

The objective of the proposed project is to better understand how the brain recovers language functions after a stroke. We want to determine what the changes are in the brain of a person who has had a stroke when they can say more words after treatment for their speaking difficulties. We want to know if changes in the brain will be different when a person has had an intense form of treatment than when they have had a less intense treatment. We also want to know if the two treatments result in different patterns in the brain for treated and untreated words and we want to know if the changes in the brain last longer after the intense treatment compared to the less intense treatment. This will help us better understand how language treatment helps stroke survivors. It will also help us understand more about the brain’s potential for recovery……………………..TBC

Trace Element & Nutrient Retention and Release from Ontario Greenhouse Retention Ponds

Tributaries adjacent to greenhouse operations in Leamington, Ontario were found in 2012 to have elevated levels of phosphorus. The objective of this research is to identify the source of elevated nutrients in greenhouse ponds by collecting water and sediment samples over the course of 2 years. These samples will be analyzed to find linkages between nutrients found within the ponds and the surrounding environment. We will be able to draw conclusions on which ponds are behaving as a source for phosphorus, and which ones a sink, as well as whether the elevated concentrations are from ongoing contributions or from a saturation of the sediment. The relevance for the partnership will be an understanding as to why some ponds are not meeting ministry standards for nutrient concentrations and steps they can take to correct the issues. These methods could be applied on a larger scale to address eutrophication of Lake Erie.

Development of Computational Fluid Dynamics Methodology for Management of Oil Tanks and the Separation of Air and Oil in an Aero-Engine

Oil is used in aircraft engine applications to lubricate and carry the associated parasitic heat generated away from the moving components. Inefficient lubrication can cause an increase of heat transferred to the metal components by friction while too much oil can cause an increase of the heat generation by churning. The churning of oil leads to the entrainment of air. Oil temperature rise leads to generation of foam. Therefore, it is very important to separate the air from the oil before the former is being released back into the environmental and the latter is fed back into the oil system to assure an efficient operation of the aero-engine. The principal aim of the present project consists in developing a CFD methodology to simulate the separation of air and oil in order to facilitate design exploration by the industrial partner of more efficient and ecofriendly aircraft engines.

WP 1.1.5 – Analog, RF, and SPIC Testing On a Low-Speed Tester

This project will address the production test needs of a silicon-based high-speed photonic transceiver solution for metro-reach terabit optical modems. For this project, the partnership will be between Ciena, DA Integrated (test development contractor) and Prof. Gordon W. Roberts from McGill University (academic expert in DFT and mixed-signal design and test). The scope of this collaborative research will be to devise low-cost test techniques and DFT circuits beyond the current state-of-the art that will potentially be used in production testing, characterization, and calibration of Ciena’s next generation optical transceiver chips (>100 Gbps). Of particular interest is the need for the analog/mixed-signal/RF circuits to be tested on a digital test platform. TO BE CONT’D

An Integrated Interface for a Mixed Reality Based Medical Education System

How to build a medical education ecosystem and improve the learning outcome? Currently a medical education system based on mixed reality is missing and bad user interfaces can leave students confused and struggling instead of learning efficiently. The goal of this project is to leverage mixed reality technology, develop a medical education system, and make it easy to use. An interactive system with an integrated interface will be created, enabling real object recognition, responsive information assistance, and coordinated collaboration between users across platforms with a consistent and intuitive educational experience. This system enables users to interact with three-dimensional virtual objects in the physical world, and collaborate cross platforms of mixed reality devices, virtual reality devices, mobile devices, laptops, and desktop computers. Therefore, the complex medical concepts and deeper human structures will be seen, studied, discussed, and shared beyond the limitation of time and location, and medical students and health professionals in many areas will benefit from the system. The improvement of interfaces will greatly enhance the usability, facilitate seamless integration of mixed reality into medical education ecosystem, and accelerate mixed reality technology and innovative devices to be widely used in medical education and various fields

Gaze behavior as a novel marker for stroke recovery

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of eye movement measures as an index of cognitive function after stroke. The development of new more revealing approaches to reveal the changes after stroke are important to better understand the process of recovery and to the develop of new treatment. This study will explore the use of eye movement as a measure of one’s ability to maintain and direct attention after stroke. This is important since the ability to control attention is fundamental to return to everyday activities and for success during the rehabilitation phase. It is expected that the measurements of eye movements will be more sensitive to the progress of stroke recovery than standard test outcomes. This information will help rehabilitation teams to better control the progress rehab sessions.

Urban agroecology : the case of Madrid

In order to meet the various challenges of food systems, significant support for agroecology can be observed, and more recently in urban areas. This project is a part of my doctoral process, in which I am interested in the rationale, trajectory, functioning and consequences of urban appropriations of agroecology. To study this phenomenon, Madrid is a very interesting case study that brings together a wide variety of agroecological initiatives.
This project aims to enrich the experience surrounding my data collection by integrating a research team directly mobilized around the questions that are at the heart of my research.TO BE CONT’D

3D Time-Domain Finite Element Modeling of Nonlinear Conductive/Ferromagnetic Thin Films

This internship project proposes to develop a new approach to model electromagnetic nonlinear thin regions, such as those encountered in various electrical devices and, for example, constituted by superconducting materials. In fact, it seeks to reduce the computational costs in simulations of devices made of thin layers and consequently allowing more realistic simulations, which is often impossible because of the particular geometry of these layers and the high costs associated to its discretization. In addition, the extremely nonlinear behavior of the materials is difficult to be represented without a fine discretization inside the thin region. Thus, with this project, we propose to represent the thin region by a lower dimension model and to include the behavior of the material mathematically on the model. Consequently, gains in terms of computational costs and faster devices design and optimization are expected. TO BE CONT’D

Croissance in situ dans un microscope électronique à transmission de germanium et d’arsenic de gallium sur couches de graphène mono et multi-feuillets

Le projet porte sur la croissance in-situ de germanium et de GaAs sur membranes de carbones (graphene). Ces croissances seront réalisées dans le microscope électronique en transmission « Nanomax ». Le but du travail est d’étudier la germination initiale de ces deux semi-conducteurs sur membrane de graphene. Il s’agira, précisément, d’étudier les processus de germination/ croissance du germanium et de l’arséniure de gallium sur des membranes de graphène suspendues. Nous étudierons les relations d’orientations entre le semi-conducteur et les couches de carbone en fonction des conditions de croissance. Avec cette étude, nous visons à déterminer le mécanisme d’interaction entre les matériaux semi-conducteurs 3D et la surface des matériaux 2D lors de la croissance cristalline mais aussi à diminuer le coût élevé des substrats non-silicium en effectuant le transfert de ces couches cristallines.
