Protein degradation induced by PROTACs (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) constitutes a novel modality of drug discovery, with advantages over the traditional approach. This approach is still at infancy and there is a lot to learn in this field. The trainees will work under academic supervisors at University of Toronto, who are experts in chemical tool development […]

Currently there is a huge challenge in drug screens as the vast majority of the candidate drugs fail in clinical trials either due to no efficacy or drug toxicity. As an alternative to traditional animal models, zebrafish have recently emerged as a powerful vertebrate paradigm to study human disease and to use its developing embryos […]

Bell’s Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) team is collaborating with academic institutions in order to further research and develop cyber security analytics for the protection of critical infrastructure and data. The focus of this research is to create and leverage a traffic classification project specifically for network security purposes. This research to design distributed algorithms fast […]

Dans une situation de crise environnementale, l’industrie doit prévenir le réchauffement climatique avec la transition des énergies fossiles vers les énergies renouvelables. L’hydrogène dont la combustion génère de l’eau présente le carburant le plus prometteur quant à la préservation de l’environnement et son rapport énergétique massique. Actuellement, la majeure production est issue du reformage du […]

When waste rocks generated by mining activities are exposed to the air and water, various toxic elements may be released to receiving waters and soils. Arsenic (As) is known as one of the most toxic pollutants which can cause damage to the environment and human health. To implement effective source control, it is essential to […]

Carsharing is a service where members have access to a fleet of shared vehicles distributed across a city. Members can book a vehicle when needed, allowing for the convenience of vehicle ownership while reducing the need to own private vehicles. The two primary forms of carsharing are a free-floating or free floating model, where users […]

Ce projet de recherche action explore la question d’équilibre entre conception réglée et conception innovante appliquée au domaine de l’architecture. Bien que la compréhension de l’articulation entre ces deux niveaux de créativité touche des notions théoriques allant de la psychologie organisationnelle aux théories du management et de la conception. L’atteinte de l’équilibre entre ces niveaux […]

Healthcare infrastructure plays a key role in the recovery of communities in a post-disaster scenario. In seismically active regions, such as western Canada, an understanding of the seismic performance of hospitals is essential to inform emergency management and effectively mitigate earthquake risk. This research project aims to develop new methodological approaches to integrate seismic risk […]

Tracking humans in video can have a variety of applications including monitoring shoppers in stores, identifying suspicious activities in public spaces, and ensuring the security of senior home residents. Recent advances in video processing and hardware capability on computers have made it possible to track a single human in a video sequence in real time. […]

Salt marshes are intertidal ecosystems found on sheltered temperate marine coastlines which are known to provide a range of ecosystem services. These services include storm surge and flood protection, and carbon storage, which have been identified as valuable services to help coastal communities prepare for and fight against climate change. Salt marshes are good sinks […]

Bridge infrastructure constitutes a substantial portion of the national wealth of Canada, whose performance during earthquake events has a significant impact on the public safety. How to enhance the seismic performance of bridge structures is a huge big challenge in civil engineering. And how to promote the application of advanced technique in civil engineering is […]

The Barkerville Gold Mine will host an intern to conduct a study to optimize chemical usage to extract gold and treat effluents. The gold mine obtains ore from a range of deposits with different mineralogical properties. The intent is to minimize chemical use and therefore reduce effluent treatment requirements thereby reducing overall environmental liabilities and […]
