Au Canada, 288 800 personnes âgées de 15 ans et plus utilisent un fauteuil roulant manuel ou motorisé ou un quadriporteur. Les bénéfices de aides à la mobilité pour les personnes ayant des incapacités sont bien connus. Volting (www.volting.org) est une technologie actuellement en développement qui se distingue du fauteuil roulant par sa capacité à […]

Selecting the right person for a job or admitting the right individual into a medical school of similar professional program is an important but complex task. Decision-makers rely on assessment tools to help them know more about the knowledge, skills, and abilities of potential applicants before they make their choices. The Casper test by Acuity […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

There are over 250 million scientific publications and reports with an increasing rate published each year, yet many are not accessible to the public due to their technical language and content hidden behind paywalls. This project aims to leverage AI (Artificial Intelligence) and a curated database of ocean-climate literature to enable educators and students to […]

One of the situations that the Forensic Science needs to address is to establish the identity of a human or an specimen from a biological sample. The contribution of this project will be to obtain an optimized method for extracting DNA from hairs with and without follicles and to generate allelic frequencies suitable for use […]

Nous allons faire l’analyse par résonance magnétique nucléaire du solide de bétons contenant du métakaolin (argile calcinée). Il est considéré que le métakaolin pourrait éventuellement remplacer le ciment Portland, dont la fabrication est l’un des principaux contributeurs à l’émission de gaz à effet de serre. Ce stage se fera dans le laboratoire de Science et […]

This research project will explore how a Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis can aid in enhancing the sustainable Basa fish industry in Vietnam. Enhancement is achieved through increasing market value, reducing the impact on global seafood supply chains and reducing negative local environmental impacts. GIS is an application that allows for complex spatial analysis of […]

Within the Canadian context, this project is expected to solve an environmental problem related to the contamination of soils by heavy metals from the mining industry and deal with a great amount of forest waste generated from the forest industry. This project aims to develop tannin hydrogel from wood residues from Canada, evaluate its performance […]

The proposed semi-active rolling seismic isolation system offers an innovative solution to address limitations in passive isolators when exposed to near-fault seismic waves with velocity pulses. Passive isolators effectively control acceleration responses against typical far-field seismic waves but can allow excessive displacement responses during near-fault events, risking collisions and structural damage. This system integrates sloped […]

Cancer’s persistent prevalence calls for innovative steps in early detection and therapeutic interventions. Metabolomics offers a comprehensive view of the metabolites that measure the function of cellular processes in this context. As explainable AI (XAI) emerges, it sheds light on these intricate systems’ decision-making processes and outcomes, making them accessible to human understanding. The project […]

The rise of Big Data, social networking, and mobile interactions coupled with an accelerating increase in the amount of structured and unstructured information enabled by cloud based technologies is forcing organizations to focus on information that is most relevant, value-generating, and risk-related. Problems arise when we make decisions based on good enough metrics (e.g. means) […]

The proposed research project aims to gain crucial insights into the stellar assembly of galaxies using advanced machine learning techniques. Most galaxies in the Universe are not isolated systems; they grow primarily through interactions and mergers with other galaxies. While we know that mergers significantly impact galaxy evolution, quantifying the contribution of accretion to a […]
