The largest cost of raising chickens is feed, therefore maintaining chickens in an environment that supports proper nutrition is essential for productivity and profitability. However, nutrient absorption and gut adaptation to luminal inflammatory stress is challenging production efficiency as a consequence of the restriction on the use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) and anti-coccidial drugs. […]

Cell-based treatments for chronic metabolic disorders such as diabetes are poised to disrupt conventional treatments based on insulin administration through needles. These treatments involve transplanting cells that can provide the needed hormone or enzyme directly into the patients’ circulation, in principle for years and without human intervention. However, these transplanted cells need to be protected […]

L’objet de cette recherche est d’améliorer la sûreté de fonctionnement des transformateurs de puissance en développant des méthodes de surveillance, de modélisation, de diagnostic et d’estimation de durée de vie. L’analyse par réponse en fréquence doit faire l’objet d’une étude approfondie puisqu’elle peut conduire à l’identification d’un modèle électromagnétique fiable du transformateur. L’utilisation de ce […]

Fungal pathogens of agriculturally significant crops pose a serious threat against global food security. This is exacerbated by the limited classes of fungicides that are commercially available for the farmers and the rapid emergence of resistance against the existing fungicides. Furthermore, resistance against agricultural fungicides can poses serious threat to human health as it can […]

Comme les limiteurs de courant de court-circuit supraconducteurs sont appeh~s a jouer un role ch~ dans Ie futur des reseaux d’energie electrique. Cependant, leur design requiert des outils de simulation numerique sophistiques, qui ne sont pas accessibles presentement. Ce stage MtTACS, couple a un projet de recherche MITACS de plus grande envergure, vise a mettre […]

The result of this project (which will be demonstrated by a use case) can make health equipments to be used outside of hospitals. This is achieved by reducing the computation cost of running Deep Learning models by 3rd party tools and use our accelerator solution to run the size reduced and optimized model. This greatly […]

Ce projet consiste à développer et proposer un modèle de gestion des logiciels libres d’une organisation. Pour ce faire, il faudra comprendre les enjeux liés au développement et à la diffusion de logiciels libres, puis étudier les meilleures pratiques de gestion dans ce domaine. Il s’agira ensuite de comprendre en profondeur le fonctionnement et les […]

Biocides are defined as substances used to control unwanted microorganisms. These substances can be used in paints and coatings to control the growth of microorganisms on different surfaces. However, uncontrolled application of biocides can lead to release of biocides from the painted surface and thus health and safety issues, growth of microorganisms after a short […]

Biking is a common physical activity enjoyed by children and adults around the world. Children with disabilities may not be able to use a standard bike but can participate using bikes that are customized based on their individual needs. There is some indication that adaptive biking has physical and psychosocial benefits. However, there is a […]

With this project, Nuvoola will propose a whole new process of detection, identification and monitoring of people in its entirety from embedded algorithms within an “EDGE” computer system, with a view to performance, and reliability and precision. The innovation lies in the ability of the application to perform a face and body combination while taking […]

L’entreprise Rheinmetall Canada développe un véhicule militaire autonome qui a la faculté de se déplacer dans des environnements jugés dangereux et accidentés, sans l’intervention d’un pilote. Ce véhicule peut accomplir des missions telles que la protection des soldats et le ravitaillement des troupes. Toutefois, son système de navigation interne se base sur deux technologies, la […]

Cori Disease and SRD5A3-linked Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (CDG) are two rare and fatal metabolic disorders for which there are no cures or therapies. Both conditions result in early-onset developmental delays, greatly hinder quality of life, and result in a rapid degeneration of motor functions. Due to their rarity, research into these conditions is lagging […]
