Les mycotoxines contaminent principalement les céréales au champ ou au cours de leur stockage. Elles sont toxiques pour l’homme et les animaux. Avec plus de 56% d’échantillons testés positifs en alimentation animale, la zéaralenone est la mycotoxine la plus présente en Amérique du Nord après le déoxynivalenol. La présence de cette mycotoxine dans l’alimentation, même […]

The economy is an important factor of the vote choice. Understanding how perceptions of the economy are formed is therefore crucial. These perceptions have been presented as an echo of partisan preferences or as a reflection of citizens’ level of sophistication. A number of scholars have recently started to reconsider how perceptions of the economy […]

The goal of this research is to reduce the risks of recurrence and the treatment side effects for breast cancer patients by combining a new cold plasma technology to the standard of care (surgery and radiotherapy). Cold plasma generates locally specific reactive oxygen species that can kill cancer cells. It could be delivered directly in […]

Car (automobile) insurance is a very common type of insurance: policyholders pay a premium to get financial compensation in case an accident happens with their cars. Insurance companies use complex calculations and a lot of information to determine the value of these premiums. More specifically, they must also consider their expectations of the future. Predicting […]

Modelis is a drug discovery platform company focused solely on rare, genetic diseases. Our unique approach combines genetically-engineered worms which are ‘avatars’ of human patients, with high-throughput drug screening. This results in a dramatically accelerated drug discovery process. Our platform is perfectly suited for genes that are evolutionarily and functionally conserved such as FIG4, and […]

What does Kmb look like in the social sciences and humanities? Processes that lead to impact start with the creation of new knowledge (output) meant to transform approaches and attitudes, build competency and/or new types of relationships (outcomes). (See e.g., Bailey & Phipps 2019 and Phipps et al. 2016). These changes, in turn, may lead […]

Nous étudierons les mécanismes moléculaires des interactions virus-hôte du virus de la diarrhée épidémique porcine (PEDV), un important coronavirus porcin à ARN enveloppé. Ce virus est responsable de graves pertes économiques et constitue le principal agent pathogène émergent du porc au Canada et dans le monde. Nous proposons d’étudier les mécanismes moléculaires des interactions hôte-PEDV, […]

This project will provide essential technical support and experimental plant materials for my Ph.D. project studying the leaf development of a non-vascular plant, the Physcomitrium patens. The mutant lines I will obtain from this project will be used to study the whole developmental process of the moss leaf. The mutant line with a plasma membrane […]
