Stage IREC – Intégration des NWA (Non-wire alternatives) dans le contexte québécois de transition énergétique

Dans un contexte de transition énergétique, le Québec prévoit accroître sa production d’énergies renouvelables comme l’éolien et le solaire. Cependant, cette évolution ne peut reposer uniquement sur de nouveaux investissements massifs dans les infrastructures électriques. Les Non-Wire Alternatives (NWA) telles que la gestion de la demande, le stockage d’énergie, les microréseaux ou les plateformes numériques […]

Noninvasive tumor genotyping for cancer detection

Non-small cell lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, mainly because relapses are often detected too late. This research project aims to validate an innovative method to monitor patients after treatment by detecting tiny traces of tumor DNA circulating in the blood. Using a highly sensitive genome sequencing approach, it will […]

Preliminary Evaluation of Bonding Polydopamine and Carbon Nanomaterials on The Surface of Fabrics and The Effect on Thermal Conductivity

Intern(s) will help Thermweave develop washable fabrics that move heat away from the body with enhanced thermal conductivity. They’ll develop dip-coating recipes that use tiny carbon-based particles, dip common fabrics (cotton, polyester) in them, and fine-tune steps like time, temperature, and drying. The interns will test how well the fabric moves heat, and how it […]

Observing Interactions Between Pacific Harbour Seals (Phoca vitulina richardii) and Recreational Fish Cleaning Practices throughout Greater Victoria

This project is designed to provide a baseline dataset for fish processing stations on Southern Vancouver Island. From this dataset, researchers aim to identify broad-scale trends in nearshore marine systems and identify future research needs. Main objectives of the project include monitoring both seal behaviour and fish waste subsidies near these recreational fish processing stations […]

Sex-specific single cell RNA-seq of ALS peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that causes progressive loss of motor neurons, muscle weakness, paralysis, and eventual death. The disease affects males and females differently. A key feature of ALS is immune system dysfunction in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and outside, in peripheral blood. This study aims […]

Uteroplacental vascular transformation in hypertensive pregnancy

Healthy pregnancies require major changes in blood flow to support the growing baby. Specifically, the mother’s uterine arteries must widen to allow more blood to reach the placenta, and the placenta must build a complex network of blood vessels to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the fetus. In hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), these changes […]

Optimization of gene editing tools into human organoid models

Organoids are powerful cellular models that can advance our understanding of human biology and disease progression. They can be generated from human patient samples and be used to screen the best treatment course for patients, thereby allowing for a personalized therapeutic approach. However, a major challenge facing the organoid field is the lack of standard, […]

Analyzing and Detecting Runway Incursions Using High-Resolution ADS-B and Incident Databases

This study focuses on enhancing aviation safety by detecting and analyzing runway incursions—unauthorized entries of aircraft, vehicles, or personnel onto active runways—using high-resolution ADS-B data from Flightradar24 (FR24). Despite existing protocols, such incursions remain a significant threat to air traffic operations. The project aims to develop and validate algorithms capable of identifying critical events, such […]
