Les émissions anthropiques de gaz à effet de serre sont les principales responsables des changements climatiques en cours. Ainsi, les industries se doivent de mesurer et contrôler leurs émissions afin de réduire leurs impacts sur l’environnement. Les réservoirs créés lors la construction de barrages hydroélectriques relâchent des quantités importantes de CO2 et de CH4 dans […]

The gut microbiome plays a highly important role in metabolic health of animals, as has been demonstrated by several studies in the last decade. It encodes a series of enzymes and produces compounds which are not available in human cells, that play a role in functions as important as the breaking down of complex food […]

Loin pain-hematuria syndrome (LPHS) is a rare human disease with a reported prevalence of 12 per 100,000. It is predominantly observed in women with the age at symptom onset ranging from the first to sixth decade of life, with most patients being in their late 20s or early 30s. The characteristic features of LPHS are […]

La marbofloxacine est un antibiotique (fluoroqinolone de troisième génération) utilisée en médecine vétérinaire. Son effet sur la santé des animaux est bien documenté par le partenaire Vétoquinol. Toutefois, son impact sur les Campylobacter (pathogène alimentaire) et les E.coli fécaux de la flore fécale (indicateurs), n’a pas été documenté. Le but de l’étude est donc de […]

This project proposes a comprehensive analysis of the impact of environmental stress on Antarctic fish, utilizing an integrated approach that combines biophysical and genomic analyses to study adaptation mechanisms. By integrating disciplines, including physics and biology, this research aims to enhance our understanding of evolutionary processes and adaptation strategies of organisms in extreme environments, such […]

Des bilans sanguins sont régulièrement réalisés en médecine vétérinaire. Ces analyses peuvent également être utilisées pour les espèces fauniques, dans diverses situations. Ces bilans présentent deux volets : la biochimie et l’hématologie. Le deuxième volet permet d’obtenir de nombreuses données sur le sang et sur toutes ses composantes. Pour effectuer ces analyses, les vétérinaires ont […]

As the need for pandemic preparedness, assessing cross-infection risks based on the given indoor environmental conditions is crucial for preventing the spread of group infections. The objective of this research project is to analyze cross-infection risks with various types of mechanical ventilation systems in uncertain environments, such as locations and distances of the infector and […]

MyHealthNB is a province-wide personal health records (PHR) application that provides all New Brunswick citizens digital access to their health information, including lab results, immunization records, medication lists, and imaging reports. Although MyHealthNB was developed with aim of empowering New Brunswickers to be more actively involved in their health and healthcare, the solution has yet […]

Recreational waters provide numerous societal benefits and contribute to public health and well-being. Recreational waters can pose a risk to the public when microbial contamination is present. To improve quality of life and local water quality, developing new locations for recreation in Vancouver is a focus of community groups including partner organization Swim Drink Fish. […]

The integration of biodiversity value in forest management is becoming more common and widely adopted across many countries. Despite the popularity of conifer plantations and thinning practices in Canada, the current knowledge on long-term effects of mechanical thinning on biodiversity is poorly understood. Saproxylic beetles are a group of insects associated with dead or dying […]

Despite significant therapeutic advances, the management of type 1 diabetes remains a major challenge, with current modalities unable to achieve, in every patient, optimal blood glucose control, while minimizing complications. Precision Medicine steers away from this ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Precision Medicine aims to understand each child’s health by integrating all the information they share about themselves, […]

Simulation-based training is an critical supplement to current clinical training. However, implementing simulation technology into a curriculum to maximize training outcomes still presents a significant challenge. It is important to consider multiple factors and their impact on trainee cognitive load. In the past, we have adjusted the target stability to manage the cognitive load of […]
