My doctoral research work is based on the optoelectronic, and transport properties of layered two-dimensional (2D) and transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials-based devices. Currently I am fabricating devices and studying their electron transport properties. The next target, to characterize the heat transportation in these devices, can’t be completed at my home institution because it requires […]

Le pre?sent de projet de recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre de ma the?se de doctorat, consacrée, d’une part, à l’influence de l’œuvre de Platon et de certains de ses he?ritiers (Plotin, Maitre Eckhart, etc.) sur la pensée du fondateur de l’idéalisme allemand J.G. Fichte, d’autre part, à la reconfiguration active, et en un sens à […]

La maladie de Parkinson (PD) est un trouble du mouvement associé à l’âge, principalement causé par la mort des cellules dopaminergiques du cerveau. Plus de 90 % des cas de PD sont dit idiopathiques (iPD), c’est-à-dire d’étiologie inconnue. Les causes de la mort des cellules dopaminergiques ne sont pas entièrement comprises. Des éléments indiquent que […]

Recently, bio-sensing R&D using plasmonic has been actively carried out in Korea and overseas. The global bio-sensing market is projected to grow rapidly by an average of 11.6% per year, with a high potential for future development and increased demand in the field. Helical nanostructure using magneto-plasmonic nanoparticles exhibit signals in visible light regions such […]

This project will make use of unique research knowledge and expertise (Gammel) and specialist archive collections within the Modern Literature and Culture Research Centre at Ryerson University, including life writing materials such as autobiographical accounts, diaries and letters of figures, in particular Gertrude Stein and Florine Stettheimer. It aims to develop a queer/feminist methodology, through […]

Driver drowsiness is one of the leading causes of road-based crashes. Using a driving simulator study, I plan to help with the collection of data on drowsy drivers, analysing drivers’ physiological metrics, such as eye-tracking, heart rate variability and skin conductance, using low-cost consumer grade sensors. Using sensor fusion of the physiological data, I will […]

Within the realm of transition metal-catalyzed reactions, considerable interest lies in the ability to generate carbon-carbon linkages using cheap and abundant catalysts and reagents, as products derived from these couplings are widespread amongst bioactive molecules including pharmaceutical and agricultural agents. The importance of catalyst design in facilitating particularly challenging couplings of this type cannot be […]

Melampsora larici-populina est un très petit champignon causant la maladie de la rouille du peuplier. Une fois qu’il s’est incrusté dans une de ces plantations, ce dernier cause d’énormes pertes financières. Pour y arriver, celui-ci injecte des petites protéines afin de déjouer ses défenses immunitaires et de s’approprier ses nutriments pour se développer. Pour arriver […]

The aim of this project is to analyse symbiont and microbial communities of F1 corals from different parental lineages (high/low heat tolerant) during a mild heat stress/natural bleaching event in order to identify communities/traits which are associated with heat tolerance.

This research project informs an essential part of my broader doctoral research which investigates the aesthetic and rhetoric practices developed by today’s far-right populist movements for their propaganda and communication on social media. Working along with Professor Vijay Mago and DaTALab researchers I will generate, collect, and analyse a wide range of new and original […]

Northern high-latitude ecosystems experience disproportionate levels of climate change. This strongly affects the previously temperature-limited vegetation in the sub-arctic tundra. Treelines, the boundaries between forests and the tree-less tundra, are expected to shift northwards in response. However, only half of the examined treelines have advanced since 1900. Why warming is associated with treeline advances in […]

In the context of science teacher shortages in both countries, this exchange proposes to use already-collected data to compare and contrast how young people with a specialism in science in both the UK and Canada view the prospect of becoming a science teacher. This comparison will develop understandings of who does, and importantly who does […]
