La prise en charge thérapeutique des cancers localement agressifs, dont font partie les cancers de l’ovaire (OvCa) et les glioblastomes (GBM), est aujourd’hui encore un enjeu majeur, avec une survie à 5 ans de 30% et 4% respectivement. La communauté scientifique se penche sur l’identification de nouvelles stratégies thérapeutiques afin de pouvoir proposer des traitements […]

Ce projet porte sur la compréhension et la gestion de l’énergie thermique apportée par un laser impulsionnel (excitation très courte) pour modifier la surface d’un biocapteur. L’étudiant s’intéressera au contrôle de cette énergie (répartition et durée) pour enlever les molécules d’une surface et optimiser ensuite leur position pour le développement d’un capteur plus sensible. Des […]

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

For this new international collaboration we plan to develop cell-permeable metal binding agents as therapeutics to treat Wilson’s disease. Wilson’s disease is a genetic disorder that results in the build-up of excess copper in the liver, leading to significant toxicity. By drawing on the expertise of the research teams in Canada and Brazil we plan […]

An in-depth introduction program offers an innovative approach to assessing alignment […]

In Canada, one out of every nine hospital patients acquires infections annually, resulting in a minimum of 8,000 deaths. These infections often stem from inadequate sealing of transepithelial medical devices, which breach the skin’s protective barrier. While current treatments rely on antibiotics, the prevention of infections could be achieved through effective integration of medical devices […]
