My research seeks to explore the history of dubbing or post-synchronization in Turkey, which from the 1940s on became one of the most recognizable features of the Turkish industry, characterizing both national and imported production. Post-synchronization of sound had been the standard practice in Turkish popular cinema until 1996; it was only then that shooting […]

The overall aim of the research is to develop a decision support system to quickly estimate the oil outflow from a damaged tanker in a collision or grounding accident, in Arctic conditions. The work in this Mitacs project focuses on a part of this overall objective: modeling the dynamic oil outflow from a damaged tanker. […]

The overall aim of the research is to develop a decision support system to quickly estimate the oil outflow from a damaged tanker in a collision or grounding accident, in Arctic conditions. The work in this project focuses on modeling the accidental damage size for representative tankers operating in the Canadian Arctic, when these experience […]

Plusieurs stratégies pour restaurer la vue ont été tentées depuis les années 60 en équipant les patients d’une caméra et en stimulant directement le cerveau. Toutefois aucune de ces tentatives n’a pour l’instant pu se concrétiser et ceci est en grande partie imputable à la façon dont le cerveau est stimulé. Grâce au développement de […]

e curriculum Montessori se démarque par sa longévité et sa large diffusion à l’international. Les études portant sur ses retombées suggèrent des effets positifs en ce qui a trait aux performances scolaires, aux habiletés sociales et au développement de l’autonomie des élèves. Cela dit, la fidélité de l’implantation est l’une des plus importantes limites de […]

While at the University of Bath, the project that I will be working on focuses on the development of an all-in-one electrochemical Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) management system. The goal of this project is to develop a device that is capable of actively counting Helper T cells in the human body. Since HIV infects and […]

Bicycling count data (exposure) are difficult to collect but are vital to understanding the safety of different routes. Crowdsourced exposure data collected through fitness apps such as Strava Metro can provide bicycling exposure data with better spatial and temporal coverage than manual or automatic counts. Efforts are underway in cities throughout Canada and the US […]

This project aims to promote the use of energy from solid waste by modeling data obtained from a Canadian landfill facility and by studying non-conventional waste-to-energy technologies and their applicability in Brazil. The collected data at the St. Sophie Landfill will be used to model thermal parameters and to simulate the influence of low temperatures […]

The outer covering of organisms often come in the form of a cellular plasma membrane, providing protection from harsh external factors. However, protection is not its only function; it acts as a matrix for important cellular reactions and processes (e.g. signal transduction, protein interactions, and more). At its basis, the membrane is a lipid bilayer […]

The efficiency of many chemical reactions is improved by addition of metal-based catalysts to the solution, however, the best of these catalysts are often based on some of the scarcest elements on the periodic table. The high costs of obtaining these elements makes catalysts based on ore Earth-abundant elements, but these base metals often do […]

In October 2017, Mexico’s Congress passed the General Law on Disappearances, the first federal-legal measure of its kind. After eleven years of extreme violence that coincide with the War on Drugs, more than 37,000 (RNPED, 2018) persons are officially disappeared, though it is widely suspected the figure is now in excess of 40,000. This research […]

This project will concentrate on the 60 volumes Chinese translation Mah?samnip?ta s?tra , examine the quotation and annotation of this scriptures from the later works. With the interdisciplinary research methods including Buddhist philosophy, philology, ancient medicine, history, astronomy and geography , I will put this s?tra under the perspective of intellectual history and conduct a […]
