Title of Project: Comparative analysis of three spider mite genomes

We are focusing on three genomes of spider mite, an agricultural pest. One mite feeds on 1200 plants, the other one only feeds on one plant while the third feeds on several plants. Most of the plants these mites feed on are important in agriculture and therefore spider mites cause huge economic damage for agriculture world-wide. Currently, we have three spider mite genomes sequenced and by comparing their gene variance, we are aiming to find some interesting genes which help the first spider mite eat so many different plants. Using genetic technology we are hoping to control/mutate these genes, to decrease the feeding ability of mites. By doing this project, millions of dollars will be saved every year, not only for the Canadian government but worldwide.

Zn-doped Coating Impact on the Titanium Salivary Pellicle

Teeth loss significantly impacts the quality of life of over 700 million individuals and is commonly addressed with implant-supported prostheses. Dental implants face biological and microbiological challenges, leading to potential infectious diseases and implant loss. Proteins from blood and saliva adhere to implant surfaces, influencing subsequent biological interactions crucial for implant success. These proteins quality and quantity (proteomic profile) are vital for osseointegration, while also serve as active binding sites for microbial adhesion. Zinc incorporation onto implant surfaces shows promise in enhancing biological response and reducing microbial colonization. However, the effect of zinc-doped coatings on protein adsorption remains unknown. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the proteomic profile of salivary and blood plasma protein layers formed on both control and zinc-doped coatings, as well as the proteomic profile of biofilms formed on these surfaces. This research could provide innovative solutions in oral healthcare by reducing peri-implant diseases and improving implant success rates by offering implants with enhanced biocompatibility and antimicrobial properties. Moreover, it fosters knowledge exchange, expertise sharing, and multicultural contact among participating institutions, enriching interdisciplinary collaboration. In essence, this research holds significant promise for innovative solutions in oral healthcare, improving clinical outcomes, and developing highly trained human resources.

Ultra-low-power edge-AI circuits and systems for intelligent biomedical sensors

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death in the world. One person dies in Canada every five minutes from heart conditions, stroke, or vascular cognitive impairment. There have been 2.6 million CVD-related hospitalizations in Canada between 2007 and 2017. CVDs alone cost totaling $21.2 billion a year in direct (medical) and indirect (lost earnings) costs. Stroke costs the Canadian economy $3.6 billion a year in physician services, hospital costs, lost wages, and decreased productivity. This project aims to develop a single chip solution for wireless smart electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor that minimize the power consumption and reduce the size and cost of the flexible ECG sensor.

Design, synthesis and characterization of conjugated organic materials for printed electronics applications.

During this dual internship, I will be involved in the PIONEER project (PhotoactIve OrgaNic polymErs for watER treatment). It has been demonstrated that through light irradiation, BTI (benzothioxanthene imide) in water generates hydroxyl radicals (OH•), with their recombination product being hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide serves an antifouling function due to its compatibility with living organisms and its oxidizing effectiveness against certain pollutants present in water. The internship’s title is “Synthesis and Characterization of Conjugated Organic Molecules for Printed Electronics.” During my internship at Moltech Anjou, I will synthesize several molecules belonging to the BTI family, which will be functionalized with monomers to immobilize them via photopolymerization within a polymeric matrix. These molecules will be sent to the team led by Professor Welch in Calgary. Upon arrival, I will continue the project in Canada by characterizing these molecules using printing methods to fabricate functional coatings for bio related (anti microbian) applications and greenhouses (antifouling). During the internship in Calgary, I anticipate gaining insight into the operations of a university research laboratory within an Anglo-Saxon system. My objectives include refining my English proficiency, immersing myself in a different culture, and primarily enhancing my autonomy within an international research project, while gaining a deeper understanding of how such projects are structured and executed.

Proteomic Profile of Dental Pulp Cells in Contact with Chitosan-Calcium Scaffolds for Pulp-Dentin Regeneration

In cases of reversible inflammation due to dental caries, direct pulp-capping therapies are an attempt to keep the tooth vital. Cell-homing regenerative therapies have been investigated in order to develop new biomaterials for a more successful treatment. Our scaffolds based on chitosan and minerals shows good in vitro results in terms of regenerating mineralized tissues, such as dentin, as well as controlling the inflamation of pulp cells. However, the mechanisms of cellular activity need to be better understood, wich can be achieved through the investigation of the proteins involved in the process. So, the aim of our project is to formulate chitosan scaffolds with the minerals calcium hydroxide or calcium carbonate and evaluate the mechanisms involved in controlling inflammation, odontogenic differentiation and mineralized matrix deposition in contact with a pool of dental pulp cells, through proteomic analysis at different time-points (0, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days). The benefits to the institutions consists in a collaboration that provides new information for other investigations in field, through a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in this process, and could result in the establishment of a new effective-low-cost therapy for advanced cases of dental caries, improving the Regenerative Dentistry.

Exploration et Cartographie Côtière Assistée par l’Intelligence Artificielle à l’Aide de Données Satellitaires dans le Littoral du Nunavik

La région du Nunavik, situé au nord du Québec, abrite écosystèmes côtiers d’une importance écologique et culturelle considérable, mais demeure largement non cartographiée. Le défi principal réside dans la complexité et les coûts élevés associés à la cartographie précises de ces régions isolées et difficile d’accès. Néanmoins, les progrès réalisés dans l’observation de la Terre par satellite (OT), couplés à l’intelligence artificielle (IA), offrent une opportunité de combler cette lacune. Notre recherche vise à développer une méthode basée sur l’IA pour la classification précises des images satellitaires afin d’identifier les écosystèmes côtiers du Nunavik. Cette méthodologie intègre l’utilisation d’images multispectrales du satellite Sentinel-2 et des données à très haute résolution spatiale (THRS), la correction des images, l’apport des connaissances locales autochtones, et l’application de modèles d’IA pour la classification. En outre, la surveillance régulière permettra de suivre les éventuels changements écosystémiques. Cette approche non seulement promet une cartographie précise et continue, mais également valorise l’expertise des communautés autochtones. En cas de succès, cette recherche pourrait révolutionner notre approche de l’étude et de la préservation des écosystèmes côtiers dans des régions éloignées

Development of a Fuel Cell Test Protocol for faulty GDL material with varying GDL/MPL defects

This project aims to develop a standard that relates the loss of functionality in the porous transport layers (PTL) due to the presence of defects to the performance of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell. This work attempts to screen defects in the PTL using previously developed testing protocols. Currently there are no existing protocols that specify when to reject defected PTL material from external suppliers. These results will help to avoid falsely rejecting material by developing such guidelines for a failure screening method based on experimental data. This will aid to reduce cost and time of the production process.
