Photodetectors are one of the fundamental elements of optoelectronic circuits. Phototransistors produce current both by absorbing light and also taking advantage of the gate electrode to increase gain. Solution-processed electronics has many advantages, including low-cost and low-temperature fabrication. In thin-film transistors (TFTs), the channel can be made with carbon-based semiconductors such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs). […]

The research project has as a general objective to analyze the organizational climate and its interference in the Interprofessional Collaborative Practice (ICP) from the perspective of managers and health professionals in a hospital context in the face of COVID-19. To achieve the objective in the proposal of a mixed methods study, data will be collected […]

Ce stage s’inscrit dans un projet qui a pour objectif de réduire le coût de fabrication des cellules solaires à très haute efficacité (1). Dans ce cadre, le développement de cellules solaires détachables, et le développement d’un procédé de passivation s’impose. L’objectif de ce stage est dans un premier temps d’étudier l’impact de l’amincissement des […]

The extensive use of fossil fuels is responsible for emitting the main culprit of climate change — carbon dioxide (CO2). As electricity generated from renewables becomes more accessible, CO2 conversion into valuable chemicals using electricity is being actively explored as an economically viable solution for mitigating climate change. Nitrogen-containing fertilizers support almost half of the […]

The interns will be working in medicinal chemistry on two projects: the design and synthesis of drugs targeting the cyclin dependent kinase, CDK1; and the design of small molecule inhibitors of mutant KRAS. Both of these proteins are commonly involved in cancer initiation. In neither case are there good drugs available to patients. Although separate […]

L’étude vise à approfondir les perceptions-relations-occupation et sensations (PROS) liés aux attitudes et comportements alimentaires dysfonctionnels (ACAD) des sprotif.ve.s par les perspectives allocentriques et égocentriques de l’image du corps en réalité virtuelle. Les résultats attendus permettront une meilleure compréhension de l’image du corps chez les athlète et pourront soutenir les pratiques cliniques probantes pour un […]

Nous étudions les mécanismes de la récuperation motrice chez le rongeur, où nous développons des systèmes intégrés d’intervention par neuromodulation du cerveau et de la moelle épinière. M. Ferotin mettra en œuvre un pipeline d’analyse cinématique 3D basé sur trois caméras positionnées autour d’une plate-forme comportementale, où le contrôle du mouvement des membres antérieurs du […]

Phytochemicals are secondary metabolites that offer biological activity to prevent degeneration of different non-communicable diseases such as type-2 diabetes (Stroke), cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Indigenous food crops are rich source of phytochemicals such as phenolic acids and flavonoids which have demonstrated some biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammation and anti-bacterial effect. This study aims to screen […]

Il existe peu de données publiées sur les propriétés des matériaux composites, notamment à cause de la complexité des essais à réaliser pour les caractériser, ce qui rend difficile la modélisation de leur comportement mécanique. Dans ce contexte, une méthode d’essai non destructive pourrait s’avérer particulièrement intéressante afin de caractériser les matériaux composites et d’en […]

Biodegradable polymers can be good replacement of their petroleum-based counterparts, which is a very important aspect for achieving our net-zero target. However, we have limited knowledge about their long-term mechanical properties such as mechanical fatigue performance, to ensure their durability and safety for different applications. Although our recent published work proved their excellent fatigue performance […]

The reclamation and management of tailings generated during bitumen extraction is important to oil sands industries. Using end pit lakes (EPL) is one of the methods for permanent reclamation of tailings. Lake Miwasin is an EPL that was recently established, and it uses a new treatment technology for tailings’ storage. A pilot-scale demonstration pit lake […]

A phase change material (PCM) can store and release a large amount of heat through a solid/liquid transition when it is available for the later heating and cooling applications. However, PCMs have a very low thermal conductivity that leads to a higher charge and discharge time. To increase their thermal conductivity, I added nanoparticles to […]
