La technologie PAL, propriété de Folia Biotech, repose sur l’utilisation commerciale de particules pseudo-virales recombinantes (PPVr) du virus de la mosaïque de la papaye, comme (i) adjuvant et (ii) plateforme de vaccination. Plusieurs PPVr découlant de PAL ciblent diverses applications médicales. Par exemple, PAL-flu est un vaccin influenza saisonnier en phase clinique, tandis que PAL-Pan […]

This project aims to design a new intelligent recognition system by combining panoramic imaging and retroflexion techniques. Panoramic imaging allows the user to project hemispheric 360º vision onto a 2D detector. The project then intends to couple the panoramic image with the retroflexion image. Retroflexion imaging consists in emitting a laser pulse and observing with […]

This doctoral project consists in developing and validating a Fourier transform imaging spectrometer for astronomy applications from 350 to 950 nm. The prototype discussed is called SpIOMM (Mount Mégantic Observatory Imaging Spectrometer) and is developed at Laval University. The concept of such an instrument combines the advantages of a Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS), or interferometer, […]

This project will develop classification models in a multi-class and multicriteria context. These models will be based in part on multicriteria decision-making support techniques and statistical learning techniques. The first stage of the project will develop and validate performance measures of the multiclass classifiers. The second stage will develop classification models based on these performance […]

This project in collaboration with Lockheed Martin Canada and University Laval is on aerial surveillance. The goal is to develop and implement algorithms for the automatic object detection using electro-optics data to be used in conjunction with standard operation with the aim of enhancing the speed and accuracy of the regular detection of objects from […]

We want to study the feasibility of using an algebra-based approach to performing program analysis. In particular, we are interested in the code comparison problem: tackling this problem enables us, among other things, to identify differences between two versions of a code or to check whether an optimized code is equivalent to its non-optimized version. […]

This research is part of the GéoÉduc3D project, funded by the Geomatics for Informed Decisions (GEOIDE) Network. It aims to propose educational interactive games based on geospatial technologies. The games would explore thematic questions of interest to youth and teenagers. The internship will focus on wireless location in interior spaces. More specifically, it will introduce […]

The proposed research initiative consists of on-site and laboratory tests to evaluate the compaction quality of road sub-soils. To that end, we will use a self-boring pressure-meter to determine the on-site resilient modulus and compare it with results obtained by the Quebec transportation department using triaxial equipment for deviatoric loading in accordance with the LC-22-400 […]

The recovery of gold from its ores normally involves a leaching process with cyanide, resulting in the formation of gold cyanide along with a range of other metallocyanides from the crude ore. Therefore, monitoring of the different cyanide species at various stages of the process and in waste solutions is crucial for providing the optimal […]

The internship for each student will be under the supervision of Gilles Bourque PhD, the Combustion Research and Technology Team Leader. Mr Bourque has been working for the past 12 years at RR Canada of which 10 in the Combustion department. The student will be an integral part of his team and as such will […]

  This project pertains to the modeling, detection, and monitoring of crises in geopolitical dynamic environments. As risks are inherent to crises, we need tools to cope with the uncertainty factors involved in these situations. The objective of this project is to conduct research activities to support the understanding of crisis situations and to model […]

Multiple antibiotic resistances have increased over the past decades, challenging our ability to treat bacterial infections and thwarting our ability to develop new antimicrobial agents. Many resistance genes have not evolved within the pathogenic isolates but were acquired by lateral transfer. We recently showed that genes conferring glycopeptide resistance are highly prevalent in the human […]
