Dans le cadre du retour sur la lune (et à fortiori des projets de mission humaines sur mars), la gestion de l’eau est un enjeu majeur. En effet, dans les systèmes fermés comme la station spatiale ou les habitats lunaires, l’objectif est d’être capable de recycler plus de 98% des eaux usées. A l’heure actuelle […]

Les couches minces nanocomposites, c’est à dire formées de nanoparticules incluses dans une matrice, représentent une voie intéressante pour développer des surfaces avec des propriétés multifonctionnelles. L’approche étudiée dans ce projet pour la synthèse de nanocomposites est l’injection d’une solution contenant des nanoparticules dans un réacteur plasma PECVD, afin d’obtenir en une seule étape, et […]

Kafka is a youth-focused initiative that uses team sports and structured activities to prevent violent extremism by addressing its root causes: social exclusion, discrimination, and lack of belonging. The project creates safe spaces where young people participate in team-based sports combined with mentorship, dialogue sessions, and positive role modelling to build social connections, mutual respect, […]

L’agriculture dans les régions nordiques fait face à des défis majeurs : saisons courtes, conditions climatiques difficiles et manque de main-d’œuvre. Ce projet vise à développer des robots agricoles capables de travailler de manière autonome dans ces environnements exigeants, sans nécessiter une supervision humaine constante. Grâce à l’intelligence artificielle, ces robots pourront non seulement se […]

The Smooth Detector project addresses the urgent problem of multimodal misinformation, fake news that combines misleading text and manipulated images, which spreads rapidly across social media and overwhelms small news organizations, fact-checkers, and public health agencies that lack the resources to combat it effectively. Smooth Detector analyzes posts across multiple formats simultaneously, identifying subtle inconsistencies […]

This research project aims to develop and optimize zirconia-cellulose inks for additive manufacturing of scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications. However, a key challenge in fabricating zirconia scaffolds via Direct Ink Writing (DIW) is the achievement of an ideal rheological properties for precise, high-fidelity printing. Thus, this study proposes the use of nanocellulose, a sustainable […]

This project explores how international teaching programs between Canadian universities and Antiguan schools can be designed in ways that are fair, respectful, and beneficial for everyone involved. The research focuses on the Antigua Champions for Health (ACH) program, where Canadian student-teachers work with Antiguan schools to support health and physical education. By listening to both […]

À la croisée de l’épistémologie sociale, de l’éthique et de la philosophie politique, cette recherche entend développer une épistémologie de l’indifférence conçue comme un vice épistémique institutionnalisé. L’objectif est d’éclairer les mécanismes épistémiques, affectifs et sociaux qui sous-tendent l’inaction sociale face à des situations pourtant reconnues comme moralement et politiquement préoccupantes. Il s’agit de démontrer […]

The integration of machine learning models and the extraction of meaningful data into industrial workflows continues to accelerate, driving innovation and new business opportunities. Leveraging our expertise in mathematical and statistical modeling, we aim to apply these technologies to address critical challenges in agriculture, where up to 40% of crop yields are lost due to […]

This project compares how lawmakers in France, the United States, and Canada have debated and shaped the right to legal counsel in criminal and civil cases from 1953 to the present. By analyzing legislative transcripts, it seeks to understand why France, a country that faces similar constraints, including a shrinking justice budget, nonetheless provides stronger […]

Finding available parking in busy urban areas remains a persistent challenge for Canadian drivers, particularly in metropolitan centres such as Montréal, Toronto, and Vancouver. Drivers regularly lose valuable time circling streets in search of parking before medical appointments, business meetings, events, and exams, to name a few. This inefficiency contributes to increased stress levels, financial […]

Pharmaceutical supply chains in North America remain highly dependent on overseas manufacturing. Most critical active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals essential for drug production are imported, making the region vulnerable to disruptions in global supply chains. Our initiative aims to strengthen pharmaceutical independence by developing local, sustainable, and innovative solutions. Our dedicated team of […]
