Investments in social housing in Nunavut and Nunavik: impacts on the mental well-being of Inuit families

Mon projet de thèse s’intéresse aux impacts d’investissements dans le logement social sur la santé mentale de familles inuites. Il a été développé en partenariat avec plusieurs organisations inuites du Nunavut et du Nunavik qui ont identifié les conditions de logement comme étant un levier majeur pour l’amélioration des conditions de vie et de santé […]

The morphodynamics of the early Arabidopsis thaliana gynoecium development

Angiospermas, or flowering plants are the most successful group of plants on the planet. The reproductive structure of angiosperms known as gynoecium is the responsible for the success of flowering plants. In this project, we want to understand how growth, patterning and tissue differentiation interact during the gynoecium initiation. Currently, there is only hypothesis of […]

Géologie et genèse du gisement aurifère rhyacien de Dorlin dans le contexte du Bouclier Guianais, Guyane Française

Ce projet a pour objectif d’améliorer notre connaissance des processus qui ont mené à la formation d’un important gîte aurifère en Guyane Française. Ce site d’étude fait partie d’une région au socle géologique particulier et qui est exploré par diverses compagnies canadiennes, notamment Reunion Gold, le principal partenaire de ce projet de recherche. La géologie […]

A methodological approach to the use of data-supported environmental factors in support of the introduction of autonomous air vehicles in a shared airspace

The evolution of aerospace technologies and automated systems has been accompanied by the phenomenon of “de-crewing”. A large body of current research focuses on how to move to single-pilot operations (SPO), but a major barrier to the implementation of SPO and other autonomous commercial aircraft operations is that advances in human-machine interactions and human factors […]

Development of rheological methods to investigate the viscoelastic behavior and stability of paints

Paints are complex colloidal suspensions that usually contain binders (resins), solvents, pigments and rheological modifiers. From production to applications, these raw materials should remain uniformly mixed and stable during pumping processes and storage, as well as after application with brushes, rollers, spray guns, etc. It is very important to know how the paint behaves under […]

Automatisation des achats dans les PME

Dans la plupart des organisations, surtout les PME, l’automatisation des achats passe par l’acquisition d’une solution informatique qui supporte les processus d’approvisionnement. Malgré la complexité des achats de services informatiques et l’importance des dépenses associées, on ne connaît pas suffisamment les spécificités de l’achat des solutions TI ni la façon de minimiser les nombreux risques […]

Public Policies and Subjectivity of Black Women

This research analyzes the manner in which black women from the periphery of São Paulo (Brazil) deal with state-funded social policies in their daily lives. In particular, it looks at the challenges of navigating complicated bureaucratic procedures for marginalized and often undereducated urban populations, and the impact these challenges have on their everyday life. This […]

Production of cannabinoid in bioengineered microalgae

Plant natural products (PNP) are important resources for pharmaceutical and food industry. In the last decades, the market price of several PNP inflated because of the limited amounts produced in plants and the challenges in growing healthy crops. To overcome this problem, our team developed a multitool box of molecular methods to transform marine algae […]

Correction du biais de la sous-captation des précipitations et séparation des précipitations et séparation des précipitations solides et liquides

La prévision des apports en eau dans les bassins versants du parc de production d’Hydro-Québec est très importante car elle permet de quantifier la production hydro-électrique. Pour faire ces prévisions, on utilise des modèles hydrologiques qui sont alimentés par plusieurs données climatiques dont les plus importantes sont les précipitations. Une meilleure prévision repose sur la […]
