Les équipes de travail sont omniprésentes dans le milieu de la santé. Des acteurs souvent dotés d’expertises distinctes et complémentaires doivent collaborer afin d’innover, d’offrir des soins de qualité ou d’implanter des changements organisationnels. Toutefois, leur succès n’est pas garanti et les conséquences sur la santé des patients peuvent être néfastes. Étant donné la complexité […]

“Smart” clothing that responds to the wearer offers compelling advantages over today’s inert clothing. By integrating living cells into the textiles that make up our clothing, we can endow them with these “smart” properties. This includes a shirt that begins to smell like flowers when soaked in sweat, pants that “self-heal” after an accidental tear, […]

La consommation énergétique des bâtiments représente à elle seule près de 40% de la consommation énergétique mondiale, et plus de 30% des émissions annuelles de gaz à effet de serre. Dans cet ordre d’idée, l’optimisation du contrôle des chauffages, de la ventilation et de la climatisation (CVC) représente un enjeu majeur pour le secteur énergétique […]

Natural extracts have potential as anti-cancer therapeutics. These botanical materials are well tolerated and are safe to be given as supplements over long periods of time. This project aims to provide scientific and clinical validation of these extracts for their anticancer effects and sensitization of cancer cells to standard chemo regiments. Synthite Industries Inc., a […]

This MITACS project addresses a significant barrier the partner company (Fibos Inc.) is facing with their current customers in manufacturing of fibre optical sensors that can be robust and cost effective for the high temperature and pressure environments. The market is aimed at sensing of rotor assemblies in turbines where electrical and other means of […]

The use of fossil fuels for energy has led to the significant emission of greenhouse gases from the stationary and automobile sources. Methane (CH4) is an abundant source of fuel found in large quantities in natural gas reserves or produced synthetically is an alternative fuel for motor vehicles, large track transportation, marine application because of […]

The project will foster high-quality analysis of taxation and other public policies in Canada. We will assemble data on public finances of governments in Canada and, to make them more useful for policy analysis, we will transform the data to make them consistent over time and across geographic units of Canada. We will make the […]
