A special group of stray dogs in Brazil known as ‘community dogs’ has been the centre of interest for scientific researchers. These community dogs may hold the key to controlling stray dog populations around the world, as well as mitigating disease transmission between animals and humans. My proposed project will look at the different behaviours […]

Oil and natural gas are typically found in the reservoir rock, accumulating over millions of years and can be extracted through various techniques and technologies. The oil from the reservoir can be extracted in three stages: primary, secondary and tertiary. Secondary techniques are often implemented after the production from the primary stage ceases, mainly due […]

La cigarette électronique est un dispositif proposé aux fumeurs pour remplacer la cigarette standard dans le but de réduire-éliminer les effets nocifs de la fumée de cigarette. Cette cigarette électronique est habituellement utilisée pour vapoter un liquide composé de propylène glycol, de glycérine végétale et de nicotine. Cependant, plusieurs études rapportent une combinaison de l’e-cigarette […]

Historical documents about Japan have not included information on its long-distance running culture. A type of event called ‘ekiden’ is very popular in Japan. Ekiden racing is a team relay event, invented in Japan. Sporting events can tell us about the meaning people place on them, and the reasons why they are valued. This project […]

The project aims to improve the pharmacovigilance and the report from the adverse events derivative from the drug use for treatment of heart failure. This will occur through the analysis of reported adverse events compared to those not reported throughout the years. In addition, factors associated with reported adverse events, especially fatal ones, will be […]

Quantum computers can potentially solve problems that are intractable for classical computers. However, despite the development of a theory on the processing of quantum information over the years, the computers we use every day still outperform their quantum counterparts, if we exclude some as interesting as specific tasks. In fact, quantum states that are manipulated […]

This research project aims to enhance estimators for nonlinear dynamic models with non-Gaussian errors. Objectives include improving the semi-parametric GCov estimator by addressing numerical challenges and proposing an optimized algorithm. Adjustments to the objective function will handle sparsity and singularity issues in big data applications. The project will apply the GCov estimator to analyze the […]

Literacy Nova Scotia (LNS), in collaboration with the Department of Information Science (DIS) at Dalhousie University, seeks to produce a hallmark report released every 2 years that will present a holistic picture of the state of literacy in Nova Scotia. Further, It will seek to develop a definition of literacy grounded in the Nova Scotian […]

The project aims at studying the patterns of evolution of the flowers of the Gesneriaceae family. It will use a newly developped 3D modelling approach that uses photogrammetry to study the evolution of flowers in 3D without losing color information. The research aims at testing if there are gaps in the variation of flower shape […]

Notre projet de recherche aborde le problème d’accès à la justice engendré par l’action collective au Québec et son homologue, l’action de groupe, en France. Ce problème d’accès à la justice se manifeste, au Québec, par l’engorgement des tribunaux par les actions collectives et, en France, par l’ineffectivité de l’action de groupe. Étant donné que […]

Notre projet consiste à établir le tout premier musée d’insectes du Panama. Nous souhaitons sensibiliser la société à l’importance des insectes en offrant des expositions de haute qualité qui transmettent l’amour et le respect envers ces créatures. Ce musée contribuera à l’éducation locale tout en améliorant l’attrait touristique de la ville de Boquete, qui attire […]

Ce projet vise à transformer la prise en charge des patients atteints de cancer en combinant l’intelligence artificielle et l’analyse du génome. En utilisant des techniques avancées d’apprentissage automatisés, nous allons développer un modèle novateur de tokenisation du génome des cancers, permettant d’identifier rapidement les marqueurs génétiques associés à la maladie. En parallèle, nous allons […]
