Le cyanure est l’un des produits chimiques ayant un potentiel toxique élevé pour les organismes vivants selon sa forme et concentration. Il est utilisé dans l’extraction des métaux précieux tels que l’or et l’argent. Les rejets cyanurés qui s’accumulent dans les environnements fermés (anaérobies) peuvent présenter un risque pour la santé humaine et les écosystèmes, […]

Le vieillissement de la population pose des défis majeurs. Le nombre croissant de cas de démence liée à l’âge souligne la nécessité de mieux comprendre le vieillissement pour prévenir le déclin cognitif. Ce projet propose d’utiliser la variabilité de la fréquence cardiaque (VFC) et la perspective temporelle comme indicateurs pour prévoir et influencer positivement le […]

Le Conseil des Atikamekw de Wemotaci (CAW) au Québec et la Chaire de leadership en enseignement en foresterie autochtone (ci-après CLEFA) de l’Université Laval collaborent depuis 2019 afin de définir une vision atikamekw de la gestion des forêts. Cette collaboration a conduit à un constat important : il est essentiel de déployer des efforts particuliers […]

This project explores the feasibility of creating a printed circuit board (PCB) to serve the physical layer (PHY) functions within a WDOCSIS prototype. Rather than approaching this from a technical standpoint, we adopt a strategic perspective to drive product innovation. Our approach encompasses three key components: We will create a PCB that seamlessly integrates physical […]

L’embauche de stagiaire serait bénéfique pour la Société de transport de l’Outaouais et le Bureau de projet du Tramway Gatineau-Ottawa, car elle permettrait à la participation du stagiaire le travail dans certains domaines, dont la mise à jour de données statistiques et de l’analyse et la participation à la rédaction de certaines sections du schéma […]

The proposed MITACS internship project is an extension of an existing research collaboration in advanced aerodynamic flow control concepts with electro-fluidic actuators between École Polytechnique de Montréal (Polytechnique) and the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT-K). The former party is responsible for wind tunnel experiments and the latter party for advanced flow simulations with a […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

Cellulose derivatives can undergo various chemical reactions, resulting in materials with better processability and broader applicability. For instance, incorporating cationic or anionic functional groups into these materials enhances their solubility. However, when combining different components to create a product or during the processing, understanding the properties of the modified materials is crucial for predicting behavior […]

High performance carbon fibre thermoplastic composites are experiencing a strong growth in demand. These materials often come in the form pre-impregnated carbon fibre rolls. The impregnating resin being a thermoplastic polymer, the rolls can be stored at room temperature for an indeterminate time. The fabrication of the pre-impregnated thermoplastic composite generates wastes in the form […]

The proposed project aims to study how a novel microRNA can improve heart muscle function in patients with heart failure. This microRNA helps heart muscle cells relax better, which is a key issue in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). By combining the biophysics expertise and force measurements techniques developed at McGill […]

Electrifying the chemical industry is a necessity towards a more sustainable future. A potential approach to achieve this ambitious goal, is the use of plasma catalysis. Herein, a plasma is generated by applying a high voltage to generate a discharge in the gas mixture of interest. In the same volume, catalysts can be packed to […]

Healthcare has been completely transformed by the spread of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices, which present before unheard-of possibilities for monitoring, diagnosis, and therapy. Since healthcare data is sensitive, these solutions must ensure authorized access to data while maintaining confidentiality, integrity, and the availability of resources. The underlying security vulnerabilities in IoMT systems can […]
