There is a pressing need to apply genomics-based tools for rapidly evaluating the impact of industrial and municipal waste management practices and climate change. In order to do this, information about the genome from relevant North American species is needed, yet acquiring these complex genome sequences had been cost and resource prohibitive until recently. Working […]

With the imminent emergence of personalized medicine and the availability of costly targeted drugs comes the crucial allocation of ressources within the halthcare systems. Determining which treatment options should be funded has become an increasingly difficult task. Decision-makers are relying heavily on pharmacoeconomic (PE) evalutions to decide which of them will be most effective and […]

Conventional wastewater treatment process includes primary treatment (clarifier), secondary treatment (aeration tanks) and anaerobic digestion (AD) of primary sludge (PS) and waste activated sludge (WAS), followed by disposal of the bio-solids from of the AD process. It is estimated that the sludge treatmenUdisposal processes account for approximately 40% of the costs for a wastewater treatment […]

Le nombre d’espèces qui nous entourent est si important qu’il peut être ardu, même pour les spécialistes, de toutes les identifier. Cela est particulièrement vrai pour les insectes. De plus, avec l’avènement des technologies mobiles de l’information, la quantité et la qualité des images disponibles n’a jamais été aussi importante. Grâce aux appareils photos numérique […]

Durant la pandémie de covid-19, plusieurs villes, dont Montréal, ont mis en place des interventions sur l’aménagement urbain, l’organisation du transport local et la gestion des espaces. Ces mesures visaient la distanciation physique dans les espaces urbains tout en assurant le maintien des activités commerciales des établissements ayant pignon sur rue. Ces actions n’ont pas […]

L’histoire et le patrimoine font partie des ressources territoriales que peut mettre en valeur une destination pour attirer les visiteurs. Lorsqu’il s’agit précisément du patrimoine familial des visiteurs, la destination acquiert toutefois une distinction tout à fait unique. La région du Kamouraska, où de nombreuses familles pionnières québécoises se sont installées, a choisi de mettre […]

Le 11 mars 2020, l’Organisation mondiale pour la Santé déclare que l’éclosion de la COVID-19 est désormais une pandémie. Face à la propagation du virus et à la mortalité qui l’accompagne, le gouvernement Québécois met en place les mesures de confinement strict. Les premières études établissent que l’adaptation globale des enfants est peu compromise par […]

Development of a scalable, flow-through membrane-based processing platform for producing enriched fractions of bioactives from marine by-product extracts generated by bacterial fermentation. The proposed technology uses the conventional membrane filtration approach using pressure in tandem with applied voltage for increasing the value and application of the sustainably sourced, bioprocessed crude fish by-product protein extracts. Peptide […]

The IBM DLPS software is used to provide an intelligent interface system that enables a ship’s Command System to interface to Tactical Data Links for the exchange of information with other friendly units. The DLPS software integrates the ship’s Command System data with the tactical networks of data links. IBM would like to expand and […]

Environmental quality criteria (EQCs) for soils are not designed to protect ecosystems from multiple contaminants that co-occur. EQCs are overwhelmingly based on dose-response studies of single contaminants, and lack mechanisms for scaling EQCs to accurately predict metal mixtures toxicity. The inability to predict risk for metal mixtures in soils at Canada’s many current and legacy […]
