Ma thèse porte sur le cinéma et la photographie documentaire de deux maras – des gangs provenant d’Amérique Latine. Ces organisations violentes naviguent entre plusieurs identités visuelles qui peuvent être construites par l’art. L’image documentaire, qu’elle soit photographique ou cinématographique, agit comme médiation permettant d’entrer dans une réalité complexe : celle d’une population dangereuse marginalisée […]

Glycosidases are an ubiquitous class of proteins (enzymes) which catalyses the hydrolysis of glycoconjugates, and are involved in many physiological processes. However, despite the tremendous potential of glycosidases for both therapeutical and industrial applications, function and structure of the vast majority of glycosidases remains to explore. The main goal of the project is to develop […]

La notion de la preuve numérique est apparue récemment. C’est un concept non défini par le droit. La loi québécoise concernant le cadre juridique des technologies de l’information parle bien de document technologique, mais le concept de « preuve numérique » est absent des textes législatifs et de la jurisprudence. D’où l’intérêt de la détermination […]

Le projet « Espaces qui touchent » s’inscrit dans une recherche-création intitulée « Concevoir à l’état brut : la fonction tactile et les matières premières pour enraciner l’architecture ». L’étude part d’un constat d’ordre anthropologique : l’apparente perte de racines dans les créations humaines et plus particulièrement, dans la conception d’espaces architecturaux. En contrepoint à […]

Meanwhile, the company’s existing cloud environment and the speed requested […]

With an estimated number of 37,7 millions people affected worldwide and a high mortality, heart failure (HF) represents a major public health problem. The beta-3 adrenergic receptors (?3AR) are expressed in human cardiac contractile cells. In the past few years, our group and others showed that by reducing oxidative stress ?3AR confer protection against cardiac […]

Since COVID-19, our organization has realized that we require significant operational changes to adjust to a work-from-home, digital environment. Namely, instead of using almost exclusively paper records, we require an accessible cloud-based filing system, relationship management system, and communication hub. Without these, we will most certainly continue to struggle to an increasingly digital world.

The ocean is experiencing drastic declines in biodiversity due to the cumulative impact of human activities, including habitat loss, resource exploitation and fossil fuel emissions. These declines in species abundance and diversity have dire consequences for coastal communities whose economic and social systems depend upon healthy oceans. While global analyses of human impacts on marine […]
