Evaluation of the synergistic effect of surface grafted peptides promoting stem cell osteoblastic differentiation

This research project aims to mimic the extracellular matrix by decorating the surface of a biomaterial with molecules that can interact with cells. This interaction causes changes within cells depending on the cell type and the type of molecules involved. We will evaluate the effect of four molecules/peptides distributed in different combinations on the surface […]

Understanding the Uses and Benefits of Haptic Integration within Virtual Simulations

Healthcare learners use simulations to train their skills prior to treating real patients. These simulations can happen in-person (e.g., role playing) or they can happen virtually using gamified educational software. One drawback of using many of these virtual simulations is that many do not provide the healthcare learner with force-based feedback (e.g., haptics). For example, […]

Modeling and Characterization of Interlayer Weld Formation During Fused Filament Fabrication

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is the most widely used additive manufacturing technique,involving a movable heated nozzle through which a molten thermoplastic polymer fiber is extruded onto a platform. Deposited filaments weld together and solidify to form a layer, and successive layers form the final part. In most scientific literature, incomplete weld formation between the filaments […]

Integrated strategic and tactical design of multi-echelon city distribution systems with vehicles synchronization

La croissance de l’urbanisation ces dernières décennies et les besoins de déplacement de personnes et de biens de consommation qui l’accompagnent, entrainent une forte croissance du volume de transport routier de passagers et de marchandises. La croissance du volume de transport de marchandises est en plus boostée par l’essor du commerce électronique qui entraine des […]
