Développement d’un indice d’intégrité biotique pour le bassin versant de la rivière Saint-Charles

L’état de santé des rivières qui se déversent dans le lac Saint-Charles, est peu connu. Grâce à ce projet de recherche, l’Association pour la Protection du Lac Saint-Charles et des Marais-du-Nord (l’APEL), en lien avec l’Université Laval, développera un indice qui permettra de classer l’état de santé des rivièrescomme étant excellent, bon, assez bon, pauvre […]

Content Delivery Networks to the Home

CONTENT Delivery Networks (CDNs) are large distributed infrastructures of replica servers placed in strategic locations. They deliver content to end-users with reduced latency by replicating content on surrogate servers. However they face a major challenge when content is delivered to end-users accessing a same content in home settings: inefficient bandwidth usage in the access network. […]

Defining the effects of pineal compounds in longevity and cystogenesis using a Drosophila melanogaster model

Promoting healthy ageing and prolonging life span has become a global priority to improve quality of life and reduce caring costs for age-related diabetes, cancer and heart disease. Pineal gland extract was shown to increase longevity in many organisms and protect against age-related degeneration. We will systematically analyze the life-extension properties of components of the […]
