L’évolution de la virulence des punaises ternes en réponse à la sélection exercée par les méthodes de lutte

En empêchant le développement normal des fruits, les punaises ternes occasionnent des pertes économiques majeures pour les agriculteurs de fraises. Ils utilisent donc des méthodes de luttes pour réduire la densité de ces insectes qui changent les paramètres déterminant la survie des individus. Ce projet permettra d’examiner comment ces méthodes de lutte occasionnent un changement […]

Adapting Human Performance Techniques, Illusion Aesthetics, and Specialized Apparatus from the World of Stage Conjuring to Contemporary Circus Disciplines

The vast majority of performance techniques, illusion aesthetics, and specialized apparatuses used by stage conjurors are still unknown and remain unexplored by the circus world. The tacit knowledge that magicians exchange amongst themselves is rarely transferred to members outside of their subculture, which leads to creative stagnation in their communities and beyond. The purpose of […]

Couplage de la dénitrification autotrophe sur soufre aux systèmes de traitement biologiquedes eaux usées domestiques applicables au secteur de l’assainissement décentralisé

Au Canada, les petites installations d’assainissement autonome (non-raccordées aux réseaux d’égout) contribuent à produire 20% de la quantité totale des eaux usées. Ces petites installations de traitement des eaux résiduaires sont souvent caractérisées par une difficulté à atteindre les normes de rejets, lesquelles sont de plus en plus sévères. La dénitrification autotrophe utilisant le soufre […]

Recycling of Urea-Formaldehyde Resin-Bonded Particleboard and MDF

The large global production quantity of particleboard and medium density fiberboard (MDF) creates equal quantity of particleboard and MDF waste after completing their service life. Given increasing demand for green products and the new government’s environmental policies, it is urgent to develop technologies to recycle these used composite panels into valuable raw materials for manufacturing […]

Development and validation of B1R-targeted antibodies for cancer therapy

In recent years, significant scientific breakthroughs have opened the door to harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. One potential group of targets, known as G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), have proven challenging due to their membrane localization and the existence of several close analogues, which often leads to ineffective or even non-specific mode of […]

Development of a Novel Sustainable Adsorbent Unit for Indoor Air Purifiers

This project is with Airpura – a developer of indoor air purifiers. We plan to develop a prototype and upscale the technology of recyclable coated iron-oxide systems, incorporated in the design, from the laboratory-scale to final consumer product use. The newly introduced adsorbent system serves to increase the removal efficiency of the volatile pollutants less […]
