Multiobjective and distributed optimization algorithm for the economic dispatch problem

Currently, the growing demand for electrical energy is driving the integration of renewable energy sources into modern power systems. However, integrating renewable systems has increased uncertainty in the operating conditions of the electric system. To address these challenges, the development of algorithms to optimize energy management in power systems, satisfying electricity demand while respecting physical and operational requirements, has become necessary. This includes reducing pollutant emissions, resulting in what is known as the combined economic and environmental dispatch problem (CEEDP). Therefore, this project focuses on developing comprehensive global multi-objective optimization algorithms to holistically address economic and environmental dispatch in electrical networks. The approach aims to minimize costs and emissions by considering the integration of renewable energy sources. The project will contribute to improving the operation and planning of power distribution systems, facilitating the transition to a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, and reducing the environmental impact of the energy sector in the context of climate change.

Comparing the risk of adverse events across different classes of biologics and comparable safety and efficacy of biosimilars versus originator biologics in inflammatory arthritis

Our proposed research project aims to answer the overall question: what is the actual risk of infections or cardiovascular events for patients with inflammatory arthritis that take novel arthritis medication (biologics) and how does it compare between different classes of these drugs, in real-world settings? As well as asking if the safety and effectiveness of their new unpatented counterparts (i.e., biosimilars) are comparable to the original biologics? Most of what we know is on earlier or a handful of specific newer drugs or they have only been studied in controlled environments as of now. To solve this problem, we will use “healthcare data” in British Columbia (BC) which contains key anonymized information on prescription drugs and other related information. We will apply state-of-the art statistical methods to these data to study and compare the adverse effects, safety and effectiveness of these medications.

Computational reconstruction of protein-protein interaction networks involved in the pathogenesis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformations.

Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCM) are brain vascular malformations which occur in one person out of 200. Their consequences are devastating as they provoke epilepsy, stroke and many neurological disorders. CCM develop only in low blood flow venules and not in arteries in which the high flow has a protective effect. Yet, why CCM lesions form only under low flow is still mysterious. This internship fits into a study on the role of unique sensors of blood flow, calcium channels which form pores across the membrane. Our work indicates for the first time that their dysfunction is triggering the formation of CCM. This internship will help unravel the abnormal signalling pathways activated by these channels. Thanks to Gingras lab’s world-renowned expertise in proteomics, the PhD student will reconstruct protein-protein interaction networks from the proteins that he has identified in the vicinity of these channels using in vivo proximity labelling by biotinylation (BioID). This project aims at identifying functional hubs targetable by FDA approved drugs to propose a cure for this disease that is sorely lacking today.
