Immunotherapies are transforming conventional cancer treatments with significant improvement of patient survival rates. FDA-approved immunotherapies (immune checkpoint inhibitors, ICIs) have shown remarkable success in the treatment of hematologic malignancies but very low response rate in patients with solid tumors. Therefore, there is an urgent need for novel therapies against solid malignancies. Cura Therapeutics is developing […]

La disponibilité de différentes substances sur internet conduit corrélativement à un accès accru à des substances annoncées comme pouvant augmenter les capacités des sportifs : certaines sont a priori autorisées dans le cadre du sport comme certains compléments alimentaires, d’autres interdits car produisant des effets dopants, ou encore non réglementés car inconnus des autorités. Ceci […]

Mon projet consiste a se pencher sur l’etude d’un systeme de planification presentement en place dans une organisation se specialisant dans les travaux d’asphaltage. Presentement le systeme en place est plutot de type informel et repose sur l’expertise d’une seule personne qui est le proprietaire.Donc, mon mandat consistera a analyser et de faire un diagnostique […]

L’automatisation des tâches de fabrication dans les laboratoires de prothèses dentaires revêt un intérêt considérable, à la fois pour les techniciens et pour les patients. En effet, une partie importante du travail consiste en des tâches répétitives, longues et qui exigent un effort de concentration et de minutie soutenu. Par conséquent, il existe une grande […]

This research project aims to expand Symgery’s line of surgical training products by simulating cutting and tearing of physical models in real-time. Cutting and tearing of simulated models typically requires additional computational overhead due to post-processing of the volumetric mesh. However, our approach will render the process to be more efficient by using a hybrid […]

L’usage excessif des plastiques à l’échelle mondiale engendre de grands défis liés au control de la pollution, particulièrement dans les océans, mais aussi au niveau de l’empreinte carbonique de leur production. Dans le contexte de crise sanitaire actuel due à la COVID-19, les équipements de protection personnel sont nécessaires et leurs utilisation, obligatoire, a augmenté […]

Whether it is for research, development or diagnostics, life sciences typically require the quantitation and characterization of samples with assays that classically measure molecules one at a time. Considering that the development and execution of such assays are time consuming and requires considerable investment, the uses of multiplexed analysis would be highly advantageous. Mass spectrometry […]

This project is about better understanding talents and managers to help them reach their professional goals. For professionals, it might be about growing their career, getting their dream job, or finding the most efficient way of getting it. For managers, it might be about discovering interesting talents to join their team, or finding the most […]

Hydro-Québec faces numerous challenges to inspect and maintain its infrastructures. Robotics used for infrastructure inspection can lead valuable gains in efficiency. However, large-scale adoption of inspection robots requires higher autonomy levels, like the capacity to autonomously inspect specific assets. AI-based object detection and localization is a key capability to complete autonomous inspections with robots. This […]

In this project, we propose the use of blockchains to provide reliability, security, and transparency for collecting and querying IoT data in the energy sector. In particular, we will implement and evaluate our blockchain solution for enabling transactions in local energy markets, where homeowners have the capacity to generate energy (through renewables), stock energy (through […]

Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) became ubiquitous in our everyday civilian lives for both recreational activities, such as sports, as well as film and photography. They have also been used in several military operations such as tactical reconnaissance. The prediction of a near future where drones will be used frequently for search and rescue, package delivery […]

Une mission satellitaire lancée en collaboration par l’Agence Spatiale Canadienne et Environnement et changements climatique Canada projette d’envoyer un satellite muni d’un radar à ouverture synthétique en bande Ku en orbite dans les prochaines années. L’objectif de cette mission est d’effectuer le suivi de la neige dans l’Hémisphère nord en utilisant la télédétection radar. Le […]
