Plants including Cannabis host distinct beneficial microbial communities on and inside their tissues designated the plant microbiota from the moment that they are planted into the soil as seed. Understanding the microbial partnerships with Cannabis has the potential to affect agricultural practices by improving plant fitness and production yield of Cannabinoids. Much less is known […]

Buildings are an important energy consumer and are equipped with hundreds of sensors and control systems. The analysis of such massive data can reveal insights for building owners to optimize the building infrastructure. Currently, usage of such data is limited to traditional control systems, energy commissioning, and maintenance on a regular basis. Real-time monitoring and […]

Le dimensionnement des chaussées au Canada est actuellement effectué avec des méthodes empiriques. Ces méthodes limitent la possibilité d’utiliser de nouveaux matériaux et de nouvelles technologies qui permettraient de prolonger la durée de vie des chaussées tout en limitant leur impact négatif sur l’environnement. Il existe des méthodes de dimensionnement mécaniste-empirique, comme PavementME et des […]

Les granulocytes sont une première ligne de défense très efficace contre les infections. Lorsqu’ils sont en nombre insuffisant ou qu’ils se dérèglent, de graves infections peuvent survenir. La transfusion de granulocytes est alors toute indiquée pour les patients aux prises avec une infection sévère résistante aux traitements habituels. Toutefois, nous ne savons pas si ces […]

Large size high strength steels parts used in transport and energy applications undergo several heating and cooling cycles during their manufacturing process (casting, forging, quench, tempering). Generally, before forging the parts are heated in gas-fired forging furnaces and the impact of non-uniform heating on the subsequent steps is of critical importance. A non-uniform temperature distribution […]

Therapeutic antibodies have been developed against a variety cancer cell surface proteins. These antibodies activate immune surveillance mechanisms that lead to destruction of cancer cells. Therapeutic antibody efficacy can be enhanced or might have unforeseen detrimental effects due to activation or inhibition of intracellular signaling pathways. Recent evidence suggests that the targeting of subtypes of […]

The progression of pain research has been limited because of the overreliance on nociceptive assessment tools. These nociceptive assessment tools only assess the sensory component of pain and neglect its emotional component. It has been suggested that behavioural tools, such as the grimace scales, can assess the emotional component of pain. The use of various […]

La façon dont les gestionnaires intègrent les principes du développement durable dans la fonction achat est un sujet encore peu abordé dans le domaine de la gestion. Ce stage s’intéresse tout particulièrement à l’approvisionnement responsable des organisations en réalisant le premier Baromètre canadien des achats durables. Ce projet a pour objectif de définir les tendances […]
