Understanding how Dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy modifies the HIV-1 latent reservoir and implications for an HIV cure

Global funding for life-sustaining therapy to treat HIV-1 has become unstable in recent years, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where 70% of the 37.9 million people with HIV (PWH) reside. Lifelong adherence to therapy is required as HIV integrates into the DNA of long-lived host immune cells, persisting quietly for decades with the potential to reactivate […]

Scaling up smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations with GPUs

Astrophysical simulations require significant computational resources. Most high-performance supercomputing clusters nowadays include a complement of graphics processing units (GPUs), as these have been shown to be highly efficient in terms of computation for the amount of energy consumed. Using only the CPUs (central processing unit) of a supercomputer leave the GPUs underutilized, wasting their potential. […]

Décentrer la « démocratie » : perspectives danoises sur le childism, la citoyenneté vécue et les méthodologies critiques

Le projet de recherche mené à Roskilde Universitet s’inscrit dans une thèse doctorale portant sur la compréhension que les élèves du secondaire ont de la «?démocratie?» à la fin de leur éducation obligatoire. Alors que plusieurs pays, dont le Canada, misent sur l’éducation à la citoyenneté pour promouvoir les «?valeurs démocratiques?», on sait encore peu […]

Development of novel TiC based grain refiner for aluminum 319 alloy

The goal of this project is to develop a novel titanium carbide grain refiner for improving the strength of the lightweight aluminum 319 alloy. Enhanced use of lightweight alloys in automobiles, currently limited because of their strength, can enable auto industry to manufacture lighter and more fuel efficient vehicles. Titanium carbide, due to its ability […]

Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Vessel Trajectory Prediction via Finite Difference Kinematic Modeling

This project proposes the development of a Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN) framework for vessel trajectory prediction using Automatic Identification System (AIS) data collected from Canadian maritime regions. The approach integrates discretized kinematic motion equations—specifically Euler, Heun, and midpoint finite difference approximations—into the training of deep learning models to enforce physical consistency. By combining data-driven architectures […]

Cytokine profile in women with cervical insufficiency

Cervical insufficiency (CI) is a condition in which the cervix prematurely shortens and dilates during pregnancy, typically resulting in mid-trimester pregnancy loss or premature labour. The causes of CI are currently unknown. However, recent studies have associated abnormalities in immune system regulation with pregnancy complications such as spontaneous abortion and premature birth. Since the immune […]

Mahseer on the move: Exploring the post-release behaviour and movement of mahseer (Tor spp.) after catch-and-release angling using biotelemetry

Recreational fishing is a popular activity worldwide that contributes an estimated $190B USD in expenditures to the global economy each year. Contrasting the economic benefits of the activity is an array of ecological and biological impacts. Catch-and-release fishing, the act of returning a fish to water (presumably unharmed) after landing, has become an increasingly popular […]

The importance of Adiponectin signaling during cardiac remodeling

Many reports have established a correlation between obesity and diabetes with cardiovascular complications such as heart failure. This occurs due to changes in the structure and function of the heart, yet the precise mechanisms responsible for regulating these changes in diabetes remain to be determined. This project will focus on the role played by a […]
