Conventional von Neumann architectures rely heavily on communication between memory and compute elements, making them power hungry. In recent years, therefore, neuromorphic computing based on low-power compute-inmemory devices has been gaining interest. One of the essential aspects of such systems is the hardware modeling of synapses that are expected to store weights that represent the […]

Unmitigated climate change is expected to have catastrophic impacts on our way of life, causing governments and corporations to step in to pledge to reduce our emissions. However, to prevent warming beyond 2°C above pre-industrial levels, emissions reductions will likely not be enough, so we will need to take carbon dioxide directly out of the […]

Predicting policyholders’ claims over a year is crucial for a Property-Casualty insurance company. These expenditures, popularly called losses, are incurred by the insurer when reimbursing the policyholders’ claims. The insurance company is required to pay any legitimate claim made by a policyholder, in exchange the latter pays an amount of money, called the premium, to […]

L’étudiant participera à un entraînement structuré en bioinformatique visant à parfaire ses connaissances de Python et R. Le focus sera placé sur les sciences omiques et ultimement sont projet vise à la détection et l’identification de façon précoce des maladies des plantes, bien que le focus sera initialement placé sur la tomates, une culture importante […]

Ever-increasing complexity of high morbidity rate diseases including infections, cancer, atherosclerosis, has posed significant challenges in delivering active pharmaceutical agents at their intended targets. Polymeric soft nanoparticles based therapeutics have provided an advantageous platform, and have provoked the design of tailor-made nanoarchitectures that can load, target and deliver with high efficiency. Using synthetically articulated stimuli […]

Theoretically sound and industry-robust software measures are necessary in industry and research. Functional sizing measures of software, such as COSMIC Function Points – ISO 19761 – are useful for the quantitative planning, monitoring, control, and objective assessment of software projects and organizations. Through this project, the COSMIC Group will adapt this international measurement method to […]

La ressource en eau souterraine est la source d’alimentation en eau potable de la Municipalité de Saint-Hippolyte (QC). Le développement du territoire ajoute une pression additionnelle à la ressource en eau souterraine et Saint-Hyppolite vise une gestion durable de cette ressource. Le projet vise à créer un observatoire de la ressource en eau souterraine dans […]

The research project aims to evaluate the potential of using abrasive waterjet machining and additive manufacturing in composite repair as a sustainable, circular economic strategy. The study will investigate the effectiveness of abrasive waterjet machining on additively manufactured composite specimens, assess the quality of machined surfaces, and simulate composite repair scenarios in a laboratory setting. […]

Les composites et le titane sont de plus en plus utilisés en aéronautique, mais sont difficiles à percer. Le perçage des deux matériaux dans une seule opération représente un défi supplémentaire puisque la méthode et les paramètres idéaux diffèrent. L’identification et la quantification d’un critère d’endommagement avant des essais en tension percée et en tension […]

Mid-infrared pulsed lasers emitting around a wavelength of 2.94 µm have a great potential for biomedical applications such as a laser scalpel their laser radiation can interact strongly with water in biological tissues. The most popular laser scalpel technology is a solid-state laser that provides pulses that can cut through biological tissues but also cause […]

Fiber photometry is a powerful method for detecting neural activity or neurotransmitter release in specific brain cells. Doric lenses Inc., in collaboration with Benoit Gosselin’s lab, designed a lightweight, wireless optical recording prototype, which allows fiber photometry recordings in freely behaving animals without the constraints of tether. This new technology provides an innovative tool for […]

Malgré leur grande serviabilité, les milieux humides sont les écosystèmes les plus détruits et dégradés à travers le monde. C’est pourquoi on tente depuis maintenant plusieurs décennies de restaurer et recréer ces écosystèmes. Toutefois, il s’agit d’une science complexe en plein essor et à ce jour, les taux de succès de ces travaux demeurent faibles. […]
