The goal of this study is to identify mechanisms of microbial decomposition activity over the restoration periods of peatlands, which play an important role in carbon storage, thereby contributing to improvement of development of ‘carbon neutral technologies’ and incomplete ‘global carbon budget’. Real-time qPCR will be used to quantify the abundance of 16S rRNA (Bacteria), […]

The research project is focused on the study of TERRA (Telomeric Repeat containing RNA) dynamics in cancer cells to understand the relationship between cancer and telomere. TERRA long noncoding RNAs have been proposed to play important roles in telomere biology. However, the dynamics of TERRA molecules are yet to be elucidated. Indeed, in human cells, […]

This study aims to propose a way to indirectly measure indoor fungi, which are known to be the causes of environmental diseases obtained in indoor life. For this purpose, MOFs-based multi-modal sensors for mVOCs will be developed, and machine learning algorithms to distinguish between general chemicals and mVOCs will be established. The detailed research plan […]

The research project will look at modes and types of localized knowledge on the span of diseases under the umbrella of dementia. The project will try to detect and compare modes of knowledge transition, dispersion, and production about dementia prevention and early detection within and across two different cultural and social settings: the Canadian and […]

Over the last decade, chemical biology approaches have proven increasingly successful, delivering new solutions to problems that were previously unresponsive to traditional chemical and biochemical techniques. In the fields of proteomics and genomics, new diagnostics and therapeutic strategies are revolutionizing healthcare. However, in the field of glycomics, tractable strategies to study glycan (carbohydrate)-mediated processes remain […]

The Mitacs Globalink Award will empower an interdisciplinary research effort which is geared towards the realization of a prototype Compact Accelerator-based Neutron Source in Canada (CANS) at the University of Windsor. Three beamlines are being planned for the CANS facility and they are intended to serve applications in materials sciences, medical sciences and fluorine-18 radioisotope […]

L’impact bénéfique de l’activité physique dans le traitement de nombreuses pathologies est largement démontré et son importance dans la réadaptation cardiaque est avérée. En parallèle, l’utilisation de différents biomarqueurs comme évaluation des processus physiopathologiques relatifs à la maladie coronarienne et l’IC est de plus en plus répandue. Cependant, il n’existe pas à ce jour « […]

Gravimetry is an important geophysical method for remote sensing of sub-surface geological structures and systems via detection of mass and/or density changes. Applications are both academic and industrial. Currently, gravimetry surveys are carried out using sensors that are very sensitive, but also heavy and expensive. Both specifications make gravimetric studies expensive and practically very difficult, […]

Ce projet pluridisciplinaire vise à développer des nanoparticules combattant la nétose, réaction immunitaire des neutrophiles qui est détournée par certaines maladies et qui conduit à la production massive et délétère de “filets d’ADN” qui compliquent le fonctionnement normal de l’organisme. Ce phénomène, qui provient du terme “NETs” en anglais, a été récemment identifié comme un […]

The Road Pavements are subjected to distress due to heavy traffic load and environmental factor and is a common cause of accidents resulting in loss of valuable life and economic losses. Regular monitoring and timely maintenance is the key to ensuring a healthy roadway infrastructure. Traditional methods of manual monitoring are time consuming, expensive and […]

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 […]
