This research improves atopic dermatitis (AD) detection, a common type of eczema, which affects about 20% of Canadians. AD causes dry and inflamed skin due to a lack of a key protein, making the skin barrier less effective against moisture loss and allergens. Current treatments like moisturizers and steroids can have side effects, and diagnosing […]

The aim of this internship is to carry out an analysis of the equations modelling the distribution function of sea ice thickness, particularly in the case of large deformations such as ridges. Among other things, we will be interested in the numerical solutions of these equations, their stability and their consistency.

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials are materials with thickness on the atomic scale that provide unique properties compared to their 3D counterparts. One important property of semiconductors is their band gap, which dictates how the semiconductor material will behave. However, manufacturing and testing 2D semiconductors can be costly and difficult, so the ability to predict the […]

Time spent in homes and in transport micro-environments contribute significantly the exposure to air pollutants. Air quality is significantly impacted by the increased green house gas emissions and effects of climate change. However, concentrations in many of these are poorly quantified and challenging to monitor due to limited space, power and Wifi accessibility. This project […]
