As a response to the rapidly increased crises of climate change and biodiversity loss, this research aims to conduct a holistic evaluation of nature’s contributions to life (NCL) within the Niagara Escarpment Biosphere (NEB). By recognizing the limitations and narrow scope of ecosystem services assessments, this research proposes using a Two-Eyed seeing perspective to comprehensively […]

Le Laboratoire d’Organogénèse Expérimentale (LOEX) a développé une technique alternative unique et innovante appelée auto-assemblage. Sur la base de cette technique éprouvée, notre équipe a développé une gamme de tissus génito-urinaires (vessie, uretère et urètre et vagin) présentant une organisation histologique très similaire au tissu natif et une très bonne résistance mécanique. Des tissus urétraux […]

La thermoception consiste à détecter les changements de température ambiante et provoque des réponses volontaires et involontaires adaptatives, cruciales pour notre survie et notre bien-être. Les neurones de la moelle épinière reçoivent l’entrée des afférences primaires thermosensibles, modulent et intègrent le signal avant de l’envoyer au cerveau pour qu’il y soit décodé pour générer une […]

Avec le réchauffement climatique et les objectifs de réduction des émissions de CO2 à zéro d’ici à 2050, la transition vers l’utilisation de sources d’énergie propres est devenue une réalité incontournable. Le photovoltaïque organique (OPV), développé récemment, s’avère être une excellente alternative vers des matériaux durables et des procédés écologiques. Toutefois, ces cellules sont construites […]

Global Emerging Leadership Programs (GELP) focuses on developing leadership and practical skills for students and young professionals through educational initiatives and opportunities abroad (Bisht, 2023). They host workshops, conferences, and provide mentorship and guidance, allowing participants to earn micro-credentials and expand their professional network. GELP also has campus chapters that promote leadership and skill development, […]

The escalating environmental challenges of recent years underscore the critical need for proactive action on climate change and sustainability. However, the mental health impacts, particularly negative eco-emotions (e.g., eco-anxiety, eco-anger, eco-grief), experienced by children and youth due to climate-related concerns pose significant barriers to climate action engagement, resilience and wellbeing. This study aims to address […]

The University of Saskatchewan (academic supervisor Dr. S. Achenbach), the Canadian Light Source (partner organization science manager Dr. F. He, SyLMAND beamline responsible Dr. T. Morhart), and intern L. Newman engage in a project to innovate microfabrication processes for microfluidic platforms used in chemical and biological reaction chemistry. In such systems, detection and imaging are […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has permeated various sectors, including the creative industry, moving traditional workflows, offering economic potentials, and introducing novel social problems (or upscaling previous ones). In the film industry, AI technologies are increasingly employed for tasks ranging from screenwriting to VFX, in situations ranging from the management of major investments in film production for […]

In cases of reversible inflammation due to dental caries, direct pulp-capping therapies are an attempt to keep the tooth vital. Cell-homing regenerative therapies have been investigated in order to develop new biomaterials for a more successful treatment. Our scaffolds based on chitosan and minerals shows good in vitro results in terms of regenerating mineralized tissues, […]

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death in the world. One person dies in Canada every five minutes from heart conditions, stroke, or vascular cognitive impairment. There have been 2.6 million CVD-related hospitalizations in Canada between 2007 and 2017. CVDs alone cost totaling $21.2 billion a year in direct (medical) and indirect (lost […]

Teeth loss significantly impacts the quality of life of over 700 million individuals and is commonly addressed with implant-supported prostheses. Dental implants face biological and microbiological challenges, leading to potential infectious diseases and implant loss. Proteins from blood and saliva adhere to implant surfaces, influencing subsequent biological interactions crucial for implant success. These proteins quality […]
