Business Development and Financial Planning Internship Job Description Overview As a start-up amidst rail suppliers that have been established for many decades, we are looking for an innovative and concrete strategy for growth, financial planning, pricing, and business development to sustain and grow our operations. The selected candidate will be involved with day-to-day tasks for […]

Propulsion pattern recognition in a manual wheelchair (MWC) simulator contributes to better identify the users’ propulsion techniques. It can provide them with appropriate feedback and training, in order to prevent chronic shoulder pain. Recent work in our lab has focused on the development of an affordable wheelchair simulator, which provides force feedback (gravity, inertia) during […]

Plants including Cannabis host distinct beneficial microbial communities on and inside their tissues designated the plant microbiota from the moment that they are planted into the soil as seed. Understanding the microbial partnerships with Cannabis has the potential to affect agricultural practices by improving plant fitness and production yield of Cannabinoids. Much less is known […]

Most Canadians live in the urban regions, and most Canadian cities receive snow every year. For instance, Montreal receives about 2.3 meter of snow every year. This snow accommodates various human-made pollutants in cities and accumulates over long Canadian winter. This application to support an intern which will be involved in a collaborative project with […]

As new generations of millimetre-wavelength cosmology experiments look to detect ever-fainter signals, they require ever-increasing levels of sensitivity. Because modern detectors and readout systems already operate at such high levels of performance that they attain the physical limit imposed by the photons they detect, any improvements in sensitivity must instead come from increasing the number […]

academic sphere, and limit interactions with the stakeholder community. This project promotes meaningful collaboration for the co-construction of knowledge around Parkinson’s disease (PD), using the performing arts as an interactive tool for knowledge translation. Piece of Mind brings together researchers, performing artists, and persons affected by PD to create a performance piece based on scientific […]

Cura Therapeutics is developing innovative immunotherapies to cure solid malignancies and infectious diseases. Cura Therapeutics immunotherapy platform simultaneously activates the immune response against cancer while disrupting the tumor blood supply. These immunotherapies also induce an immunological memory that prevent cancer recurrence. Currently, there are no treatments on the market or in clinical trials that combine […]

Geothermal energy is a promising source of renewable energy and is gradually gaining attention in application in building heating and cooling system. Standing column wells (SCW) are an efficient way of harnessing geothermal energy for such building applications. However, currently rule-based controllers are used for these geothermal heating-cooling systems with simplifying assumptions to avoid the […]

Campylobacter bacteria are the leading cause of human gastrointestinal diseases globally and have been frequently identified from raw poultry products. Campylobacter is prevalent in the entire poultry processing facility. Food packaging is one of the last steps in food processing to ensure that the food products are contained and delivered in the best condition. Selective […]

Subduction zones, where one tectonic plate dives under the other, host large earthquakes. Recently, scientists detected faint tremors coming from deep parts of subduction zones and termed them as deep tremor and slow slip. These tremors were accompanied by a minor land shift toward the ocean. These signals appear to be revealing deep, slow, silent […]

This Ph.D. study will focus on simulating and validating soil flow behavior models using numerical terramechanics for three distinct applications of soil flow behaviors from operations of construction equipment: hauling loose material (wheel loader), excavation of soil (backhoe loader/excavator) and pushing large quantities of soil (bulldozer). Numerical terramechanics models will be compared with DEM models […]
