Ce projet utilise la réalité virtuelle immersive pour améliorer le bien-être des personnes aînées vivant avec une démence en établissements de soins de longue durée (CHSLD et MDA/MDAA). La pleine conscience, une pratique consistant à se concentrer sur le moment présent pour réduire le stress et l’anxiété, est au cœur de cette initiative. Grâce à […]

New, greener methods for performing large-scale industrial chemical reactions are critical to decoupling the chemical industry from fossil fuels. Once such emerging category of reactions known as chemoenzymatic reactions are reliant on fossil fuel-derived solvents to run the reactions. Chemoenzymatic reactions are critical in making complex molecules essential in the pharmaceutical and materials industries. We […]

The one-year project will investigate the geological, geochemical and geophysical properties of three Rare Earth Element (REE) deposits in Québec. Each of the selected deposit is representative of a class of REE mineral deposits. The project will provide new insights in the origin of the three types of REE mineral deposits. This new understanding of […]

One of the main responsibilities of the Bank of Canada (BoC) is to ensure that sufficient inventories of each currency denomination are maintained nationwide. To achieve this, the BoC operates 39 regional distribution centers (RDCs), each with a specified limit on the total currency value it can hold without incurring penalties. Local banks interact with […]

La SADC de Nicolet-Bécancour a conçu le programme d’accompagnement PROAction, pour faciliter la transition vers le développement durable des PMO de son territoire. L’objectif est d’obtenir un effet structurant en matière de pratiques de développement durable chez ces PMO, de susciter une autonomie d’actions et des retombées positives. Six (06) ans après sa création, il […]

This project will develop an intelligent tool that helps protect computer networks from cyber-attacks. Cyber-attacks are becoming more advanced and harder to detect, so traditional methods often miss new, unknown threats. Using artificial intelligence (AI), this project will create a system that can spot unusual activity on a network, which might indicate an attack. The […]

Global transition to a digital society has billions using microelectronic technology in their day-to-day activities. The increasing demand for miniaturization, speed, and reliability must be satisfied with a compact combination of multiple microchips. The technical constraints are quickly surpassing the capabilities of conventional circuit boards. Thus, silicon interposers, a high-cost, high-performance packaging solution for integrating […]

Advanced packaging and high-density chip stacking technologies are pivotal in the evolution of microelectronics, enabling enhanced performance through heterogeneous integration. Hybrid bonding interconnection has increasingly been recognized as the unique bonding method that meets the demands for high-density chip stacking. Cu/SiO2?hybrid bonding is the standard packing interface recently introduced in the industry. However, it faces […]

Advanced packaging and high-density chip stacking technologies are pivotal in the evolution of microelectronics, enabling enhanced performance through heterogeneous integration. As the industry moves toward reducing bump size and pitch, the bonding methodology has shifted from solder balls to Cu pillars. Although Cu pillars with solder caps have successfully replaced solder bumps, they encounter technical […]

Face à l’urgence climatique et la nécessité de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre, ce projet de recherche se focalise sur des stratégies innovantes pour la valorisation du CO2. Cette recherche s’inscrit dans un contexte de transition énergétique et de lutte contre le changement climatique, où transformer le CO2 en produits chimiques […]

Dans l’urgence climatique à laquelle nous faisons face depuis plusieurs années, de nombreux sujets de recherche ont émergé dans le but de réduire l’impact environnemental du monde industriel. Une des principales motivations de ces récentes avancées concerne la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) par leur recyclage ou transformation. Dans ce […]

This project will involve developing tools and conducting analyses to improve the efficiency and quality of a quantitative ultrasound (QUS)-based machine learning pipeline. The student will work within a company that uses raw ultrasound image data captured on mobile devices to produce liver health scores (measured in kPa). These scores are used to assess liver […]
