This project seeks to evaluate how contamination can influence the growth of a bacterial community. These experiments will be performed using small scale bioreactors in a lab setting, where 1 contamination source can be evaluated at a time. The results of these experiments will be evaluated by using 16s Amplicon sequencing to determine which bacterial […]

Human health is impacted every day by metal contact, ranging from direct contact with metal surfaces to exposure to corrosion by-products, nanoparticles, or ions. The interaction of human proteins with these materials remains poorly understood, but metal-protein contact has been implicated as the cause of many adverse physiological reactions, such as allergies, contact dermatitis, and […]

Comprendre aujourd’hui l’origine de la supraconductivité demeure un problème fondamental essentiel à la société, car les matériaux quantiques comme les supraconducteurs promettent de révolutionner divers secteurs en tension, notamment l’énergie, les transports et l’information. Le stage présenté vise à élucider un mystère clé de la supraconductivité non conventionnelle en étudiant les oxydes de nickels (nickelates) […]

Graphene sulfur is a composite material of growing interest due to its unique properties and its potential for multi-sector innovation. Since its discovery in 2004, graphene, a carbon atomic monolayer, has sparked a research effort to modify its properties by modifying its chemistry. In fact, graphene-sulfur is graphene onto which sulfur atoms are grafted. Its […]

More than a hundred thousand documented orphaned oil and gas wells are known to exist in the United States, with potentially over a million remaining undocumented. Due to funding shortfalls, many orphaned wells remain unplugged and are negatively impacting human health, degrading the environment, and contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, such as methane. Nearly $5B […]

La transformation des crustacés est d’une grande importance économique au Québec. Cependant, les usines de transformation génèrent des quantités importantes de déchets solides et liquides dans l’environnement qui pourraient être valorisés. Les eaux de cuisson, plus particulièrement, contiennent des protéines, minéraux et des molécules responsables des arômes et des saveurs. Bien qu’il y ait eu […]
