Cette recherche vise à investiguer si la Politique québécoise de la jeunesse et la Politique québécoise de vieillissement actif portent en elles un projet de société caractérisé par une nouvelle gestion biopolitique des âges de la vie, présentant une certaine cohérence interne et dévoilant une certaine rationalité dans l’action de l’État dans sa reconfiguration de […]

This research aims to advance point-of-care molecular diagnostics by combining isothermal nucleic acid amplification with innovative photonic detection techniques. The project will focus on modeling and optimizing polymer based optical resonators to improve sensitivity and thermal stability during amplification processes. By meeting the WHO ASSURED criteria (Affordable, Sensitive, Specific, User-friendly, Rapid and Robust, Equipment-free, and […]

Ce projet de recherche vise à relever le défi posé par la Loi 25, qui exige une gestion plus efficace des bases de données (BDD) pour éliminer les doublons. Pour les entreprises et organisations, cela signifie un besoin crucial d’unifier leurs bases de données pour éviter les redondances, telles que des noms, adresses, et numéros […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

Wasted food – the result of a linear pattern of producing, under-consuming and disposing of food – is a pervasive problem globally and in Canada, where 58% of the food produced is wasted each year: that’s 11.17 million tonnes of edible food at a value of $49.46 billion (Varney, 2021). Wasted food is a complex […]

3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) could potentially increase the efficiency of construction projects and profitability. However, 3DCP typically mixes contain high volume of paste which implies high volume of binder. The expeditious development of 3DCP requires exploring other prospective and sustainable mixes besides the use of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) based mixes to meet the high-volume […]

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic condition affecting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, characterised by periods of remission and flare-ups. The two main types of IBD are Crohn’s disease (CD), which can affect any part of the GI tract, and ulcerative colitis, which affects the colon. Predicting flare-ups and choosing the best treatments are major […]

This project aims enhance the safety and reliability of hydropower systems by preventing the creation of significant sub-atmospheric pressures (i.e. vacuum) in penstocks during rapid dewatering events. Air-intake systems relieve vacuum conditions, but the 3D flow dynamics around these systems during emergency scenarios are not fully understood. The project will develop a comprehensive suite of […]

Selecting the right person for a job or admitting the right individual into a medical school of similar professional program is an important but complex task. Decision-makers rely on assessment tools to help them know more about the knowledge, skills, and abilities of potential applicants before they make their choices. The Casper test by Acuity […]

Canadian children and youth have been described as more socially engaged, educated, and diverse than previous generations, yet they also face unprecedented challenges. Youth are reporting social disconnection and mental health concerns at alarming rates. These challenges were higher for youth during the COVID-19 global pandemic, just as access to supports are limited – disproportionately […]

The proposed research project aims to understand how young adults from immigrant families in Canada maintain their home language while also learning English. A intern will help by recruiting participants, collecting and analyzing data through surveys and interviews, and developing a parenting program with community partner. The research will explore how factors like English proficiency, […]

PennyLane, une plateforme pour le développement de logiciels quantiques, possède l’avantage d’être indépendante des ressources matérielles utilisées. Xanadu, la compagnie conceptrice de PennyLane, a développé en collaboration avec ses partenaires des plugiciels permettant aux utilisateurs de répartir des fonctions quantiques vers différentes machines quantiques. Calcul Québec s’est ajouté à ces partenaires de développement pour créer […]
