The internship project involves working with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which play a key role in regenerative medicine due to their translational potential. I will be conducting experiments to find new ways to regulate and modify the functions of these cells, and analyzing high-throughput screening data to find novel therapeutic targets. Along the way, I […]

To best conserve highly social species, conservation managers must consider how resources are distributed between group members. Northern Resident killer whales are listed as threatened and prey limitation is considered one of their primary threats. These whales share their limited prey with each other, and this prey sharing is central to their unusually stable social […]

Software requirements play a critical role in safety-critical cyber-physical systems as they are the foundation for designing, implementing, and testing of the software systems. Due to limited budget and time constraints, software requirements in a commercial setting tend to have unsatisfactory quality, which complicates downstream development activities. Prior research identifies dozens of quality attributes of […]

Our project will explore the use of calcinated eggshells to reduce phosphorus runoff from farms, and reuse of these eggshells as fertilizers. The intern will test these calcinated eggshells mixed with woodchips to see how well they can absorb phosphorus under different conditions. They will also study how the phosphorus is distributed in the soil […]

This particular research project will be carried out to design and analyze district energy system options for multi-residential buildings and townhouses. District energy systems are centralized energy plants used to generate cooling, heating, electricity and other useful outputs, in a combined manner. Their implementation to the existing utility infrastructure strengthens the resiliency and reliability of […]

PASQAL Canada Inc will be the partner organization. PASQAL is a leader in quantum computing and has established a manufacturing facility in Sherbrooke. PASQAL builds and provides access to quantum computing hardware as well as the necessary software and tools for programming its quantum computing platforms. Advances in the capabilities of the quantum hardware and […]

TerraVerdae Bioworks is working with a type of bacteria that is able to metabolize methanol, converting it into a bioplastic. TerraVerdae is focusing its commercial operations on bioplastic production but is interested in identifying other bioproducts that can also be produced. It is known that this type of bacteria forms a symbiotic relationship with plants, […]

Cardiac PET is a powerful tool to assess heart function. One measure from a Cardiac PET study is left ventricle ejection fraction. This is mainly estimated through gated reconstructions of relative perfusion imaging and segmentation of the left ventricle myocardium. However, direct estimations of left ventricle volume and thus ejection fraction can be obtained by […]

This project aims to develop a novel gene delivery method for treating brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases. This method uses a specially designed virus system, called iPhAGE miniphagemids, to deliver genes of interest in a targeted manner. This method is better suited for targeting the brain as the miniphagemids are far more efficient, in comparison […]

The proposed project will investigate different nitrogen fertilizers in grain corn including products developed to release nitrogen more closely with when the crop demand is higher to reduce environmental impact. Results from the project will provide recommendations to growers regarding the best type, and the optimum rate and nitrogen split application timings of EENFs in […]
