Metabolomic Characterization of Wild Canadian Haskap (Lonicera caerulea var. villosa) Germplasm

Haskap is an emerging berry crop in North America known for its unique flavour and high nutritional value. Commercial haskap cultivars have received considerable attention from researchers, however, Canada’s native wild haskap populations remain largely unstudied. This project aims to comprehensively analyze the metabolomic profiles of 150 wild Canadian haskap accessions maintained by the Fruit […]

Comparison of Automated vs. Manual Sample Processing for Flow Cytometry in Diagnosing Hematologic Malignancies Using BD OneFlow™ Panels

La cytométrie en flux est une méthode essentielle pour diagnostiquer les cancers du sang tels que les leucémies, les lymphomes et le myélome multiple. Elle permet d’identifier les types de cellules impliquées grâce à des marqueurs exprimés à leur surface. Actuellement, la préparation des échantillons est souvent réalisée manuellement, ce qui peut entraîner des erreurs […]

Investigating the mechanism of theta burst stimulation

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a safe form of non-invasive brain stimulation that treats different brain conditions. Theta burst stimulation (TBS) is a TMS protocol that alters the underlying neural circuitry and is an FDA and Health Canada approved treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. How cTBS changes brain function remains unknown; however, understanding this mechanism […]

Reversing immune evasion through modulation of exosome release

Ovarian cancer is the deadliest type of cancer affecting the female reproductive system. While surgery and chemotherapy are commonly used to treat it, many patients experience a recurrence of the disease that no longer responds to treatment. Immunotherapy—a method that helps the body’s immune system fight cancer—has worked well in other cancers but not in […]

Rewiring Time in Brain Models: Anatomically-Grounded Delay Distributions for Multiscale Neural Mass Modeling

This international project brings together top neuroscience teams from McGill University (Canada) and Aix-Marseille University (France) to develop the next generation of realistic brain models. The goal is to improve how computer simulations represent the timing of signals traveling through the brain, which depends on factors like axon length, thickness, and myelination. Current models often […]

L2M – BioinformHER

Bioinformatics is fundamental to modern medicine, driving breakthroughs in cancer, pandemics, and disease understanding, however, while demand for this field continues to grow, its workforce still does not reflect the people it serves. Fewer than 20% of bioinformaticians are women, and less than 5.7% are Black [1]. This homogeneity reflects and perpetuates systemic biases across […]

L2M –SynapPlay

This project aims to help older adults and people with neurological conditions such as stroke or Parkinson’s disease stay independent longer by developing a tablet-based digital therapeutic tool called SynapPlay. The platform combines physical and cognitive tasks with real-time feedback to improve balance, thinking skills, and motor control, all from the comfort of home. Through […]
