L2M – AI Driven Predictions for Safer Drug Use in Pregnancy

FetoSafe is an AI-powered startup designed to predict whether small-molecule drugs can cross the placental barrier and reach the fetus. This remains a major challenge in maternal healthcare, as most medications lack reliable data on fetal exposure. FetoSafe uses only the SMILES representation of a compound, capturing its chemical structure, to estimate the risk of […]

L2M – Health Validate – A Rapid and Portable DNAzyme-Based Biosensor for Early Colorectal Cancer Detection

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Canada, with over 24,000 new cases and 9,300 deaths reported in 2023. Early detection significantly improves survival rates, yet current screening methods, such as stool-based tests and colonoscopies, have major limitations. Fecal tests often produce false positives, leading to unnecessary and invasive colonoscopies, […]

Cross-National Comparison of Family Mental Health in the Context of Autism Spectrum Disorders: France vs. Canada

This research project aims to conduct a cross-national comparison of family mental health in the context of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) between France and Canada. The first step will involve harmonizing data from two national cohorts (ELENA in France and PATHWAYS in Canada) by identifying common or comparable mental health measures and family characteristics. Using […]

Psychophysiological dynamic networks for co-regulation in parent-child dyads: A novel approach toward personalized intervention

This project explores how conflict between parents impacts how children and caregivers manage their emotions in real time. In collaboration with East China Normal University, we will observe emotion regulation patterns in parent-child pairs during structured play tasks designed to simulate both everyday and high-conflict situations. Unresolved parental conflict is a known gateway to intimate […]
