The pattern of healthcare costs before and after a cancer diagnosis may differ according to immigration status and sex. The main aim of this study is to compare the healthcare costs of immigrants and non-immigrants before and after a cancer diagnosis. Another aim is to compare the differences in healthcare cost patterns between immigrants and […]

Ce projet vise à évaluer la performance de l’ADN environnemental comme technique de détection des sites de fraie de l’éperlan arc-en-ciel et de gaspareau dans les rivières côtières du Nouveau-Brunswick à partir d’un large échantillonnage réalisé par notre partenaire (Vision H2O) dans les dernières années. Ces informations représentant une information critique dans la gestion de […]

This project aims to help humans better understand their dogs by using artificial intelligence. Over four months, interns will develop AI models that can recognize dog behaviors—such as sitting, lying down, or showing signs of pain—by analyzing video, sound, and movement data collected from cameras or wearable devices. The research also includes developing tools to […]

This summer internship aims to build an annotated dataset for pulmonary embolism (PE) detection on ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) SPECT scans using diverse and multicenter imaging studies. This involves data cleaning, data categorization, and annotation of perfusion defects consistent with the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, and then use these data to train and validate diagnostic AI models […]

We propose to tackle a challenging problem in computer graphics called ‘skinning’. A skinning technique consists in animating the skin of a 3D virtual character. In our context we seek a method specifically targeted to computer games. Therefore our goal is to develop a skinning method as visually plausible as possible with real-time performance. We […]

Ce projet de recherche porte sur la vitalité des petites municipalités rurales au Québec. Je tenterai d’y identifier les facteurs qui contribuent à la vitalisation, en vérifiant l’hypothèse qu’elle repose en partie sur le fruit d’un dialogue entre élu.es et citoyen.nes. À travers des entretiens réalisés avec des citoyennes, citoyens et des élu·es municipaux, le […]

This project addresses the growing challenge of vacant and derelict properties in Winnipeg’s Spence Neighbourhood by exploring practical strategies to convert them into affordable and sustainable housing. The research will examine the main barriers to housing redevelopment, including high construction costs, complex zoning regulations, limited financing, and low incentives for property owners to invest in […]

Ce projet de recherche a pour objectif de soutenir l’élaboration d’un programme destiné à réduire le temps d’utilisation des écrans chez les enfants de 2 à 5 ans. La stagiaire contribuera aux recherches pour établir un cadre de référence à partir de la littérature scientifique actuelle sur les habitudes numériques des jeunes enfants. De plus, […]

Compost leachate (CL) is a liquid by-product generated during composting that poses a significant environmental risk due to its ability to contaminate surface and groundwater. This research explores an innovative CL treatment strategy by integrating two complementary processes: ammonia stripping (AS) and electrooxidation (EO). The study proposes two approaches: the first is to apply ammonia […]

In recent years, many studies have investigated and demonstrated the positive effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation on fracture healing, pain management, cancer treatment, or neurological disorders. With the increasing number of diabetes patients in the current society, the use of EMF could potentially be used as a new alternative and non-invasive method to treat […]

Ce projet a pour objectif de créer un outil simple et efficace permettant de suivre en temps réel les mises à jour et changements dans les réglementations concernant notre site. L’outil centralisera toutes les informations liées aux nouvelles normes et lois, pour que chacun puisse facilement consulter les changements, comprendre leur impact et suivre les […]

Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are recently discovered lymphocytes that have innate ability to produce a specific set of hormone-like proteins called cytokines. While the importance of ILC2s in allergic diseases including asthma have been implicated by recent reports, the progress in our understanding of ILC2s has been hampered by the fact that they […]
