Dans un contexte de changements profonds du marché du travail, de perspectives plus incertaines pour la jeunesse et de restrictions budgétaires des programmes de jeunesse au Québec, l’étude proposée vise à observer et comprendre les transformations en cours dans les politiques de jeunesse-emploi sur une décennie (2015-2025), à travers l’étude de cas des Réseaux des […]

This project will investigate how mixtures of select cannabinoids affect different types of human and animal cell lines. As the use of cannabinoid-based products continues to rise in both Canada and Germany, there is a growing need to understand potential health impacts, especially when multiple cannabinoids are present together. By studying mixture toxicity rather than […]

Bacterial infections continue to cause a large number of deaths around the world, and the problem is getting worse as many bacteria become resistant to the antibiotics we rely on. New medications are urgently needed to successfully treat these infections. This project aims to address this need by discovering how certain bacteria are able to […]

This project aims to improve how polymer-based solvents are modeled during freezing and solidification processes that are critical to modern semiconductor manufacturing. Building on prior experimental and theoretical studies (i.e., the collaborative work from participated institutions), the project will develop an accurate and reliable computational framework that captures how heat transfer and mechanical stresses interact […]

Globular star clusters are massive, ancient, spherical collections of stars which orbit, in the hundreds, within nearly every galaxy in the universe, including our own Milky Way. These old systems provide a cosmic fossil record of the earliest epochs of galaxies, about 12 billion years ago, and they are key for understanding how our own […]

Ce projet propose une approche intégrée, combinant modélisation mécanique et apprentissage automatique, afin d’estimer quantitativement la durée de vie en fatigue et de prédire la durée de vie restante (RUL) des matrices. La démarche repose d’abord sur le développement d’un modèle numérique par éléments finis (FEM) de la matrice, intégrant des chargements représentatifs des conditions […]

Quantitative LUS (Q-LUS) is a safe, real-time imaging tool that exploits the frequency dependency of imaging artifacts to extract biomarkers that characterize the lung disease. However, the direct relationship between Q-LUS biomarkers and the severity of lung injury remains insufficiently characterized. Without this grounding, Q-LUS metrics remain difficult to interpret and cannot be linked to […]

Face aux bouleversements actuels de l’économie mondiale et aux tensions géopolitiques, le Canada et le Québec ont fait de la diversification de leurs partenaires commerciaux une priorité stratégique. L’Asie du Sud-Est, région en forte croissance et au cœur des échanges mondiaux, occupe désormais une place centrale dans cette orientation. Si les stratégies canadiennes vers l’Indo-Pacifique […]

The proposed project represents a strategic expansion within a larger, multi-phase research initiative aimed at advancing biogas utilization into renewable energy solutions. Currently, the first phase, funded by MITACS, is actively developing advanced purification technology for biogas using Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) filtration materials. The second phase, which includes the current project, builds upon this foundation […]

This project aims to develop and evaluate layer-by-layer nanofiltration (LbL-NF) membranes for the recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from acidic solutions of secondary waste. The research will involve fabricating charged membrane layers on commercially available ultrafiltration supports and testing their ability to concentrate solutions of REEs while maintaining high permeability under acidic conditions. Building […]
