This project aims to explore and improve a special type of bio-based material called dialcohol nanocelluloses, which is made from cellulose. By working with experts at Université de Grenoble Alpes and using their advanced equipment, the research will help us understand how these materials are structured and how they behave. This knowledge is important because […]

Le projet vise à faire un bilan énergétique des procédés d’extraction et séchage du tanin, un biopolymère dérivé de l’écorce d’arbres, reconnu pour ses propriétés physicochimiques et son potentiel de substitution aux matériaux pétroliers. Dans le contexte des enjeux environnementaux et économiques associés à l’utilisation de ressources fossiles, le tanin émerge comme une alternative durable, […]

Realistic data generation has become a hot topic in health research, especially to determine optimal randomized clinical trial design. A growing field of research is “virtual” trials, which are trials conducted through computer simulations to generate synthetic data such that the generated distribution mimics the original data distribution without simply copying the original observations. Especially […]

The maxillectomy is a surgical procedure, involving the removal of parts of the maxillary bone due to either congenital defects, traumatic conditions, or osteogenic and non-osteogenic tumors. The current gold standard of treatment involves the auto-grafting of bone from a second surgical site such as the fibula, into the maxilla; a practice that increases the […]

As an epistemic phenomenon and mental health concern, Imposter syndrome (IS) can affect how individuals believe and see themselves as epistemic peers in an epistemic environment. The online environment, particularly social media, can be an epistemic environment that could provide useful insight into understanding and dealing with imposter syndrome. So far, what has been theorised […]

The proposed research project aims to improve the stability of electrical grids, which are increasingly powered by renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, by developing a Virtual Synchronous Generator (VSG). This virtual generator would allow grids with low natural inertia, due to the presence of power electronics (e.g., inverters), to better respond to […]

Ce projet de recherche qui s’inscrit dans le cadre d’un mémoire de Master co-dirigé entre l’Université de Lausanne et l’Université de Montréal, propose une étude comparative des mécanismes de reporting extra-financier dans les systèmes juridiques suisse et canadien. Il explore le rôle du droit dans la divulgation efficace des facteurs environnementaux, sociaux et de gouvernance […]

The three-dimensional food printing (3DFP) offers the food industry and consumers customizable food preparation and manufacturing possibilities. Several food products including plant proteins have been utilized in 3DFP applications. However, the printability of plant proteins needs to be enhanced to develop novel food structures with improved stability. Our previous research showed that atmospheric cold plasma […]

Breast cancer treatment often involves surgery, which can lead to post-operative discomfort and challenges in physical mobility. Previous research has identified the potential impact of post-surgical undergarments on the quality of life and recovery process. As part of our commitment to enhancing post-operative care, the research team have developed a specialized surgical bra aimed at […]

Advancements in DNA sequencing technology throughout the 1980s triggered a transformative shift in evolutionary biology. This groundbreaking period led to the emergence of the field of phylogeography, introduced by John Avise and colleagues just over three decades ago. This highly integrative discipline delves into the intricate connections between xthe history of Earth, ecology, and the […]

Ce projet sera mené à Montréal par M. Léo Millot lors de son stage de Master de l’Université Aix-Marseille. M. Millot intégrera l’équipe dirigée par Vincent Archambault à l’Institut de Recherche en Immunologie et en Cancérologie de l’Université de Montréal. Ce laboratoire se spécialise dans les mécanismes qui contrôlent la division cellulaire. Le projet visera […]

Global Health Governance is a hot topic these days but it seldom reaches the dalitbahujans (low caste and tribal peoples, the majority in India). Pairing industry with global health agendas is the wave of the future and can be more fruitful if culturally sensitive. Eight years ago, India embarked on the National Rural Health Mission […]
