Through unknown mechanisms, parent-of-origin-specific methylation marks on one allele of imprinted genes are able to escape the embryonic reprogramming wave occurring during the first week of development and retain their profiles via DNA methylation maintenance activity. Failing to maintain proper genomic imprinting patterns during the embryonic reprogramming leads to various abnormal developmental delay. What remains […]

L’objectif des travaux de recherche entrepris lors du séjour à l’étranger est de de mieux comprendre comment le contrôle en temps réel du réseau de drainage (contrôle intelligent des infrastructures de drainage) influence la conception des ouvrages de contrôle à la source (comme les infrastructures vertes visant à faciliter l’infiltration et l’évaporation de l’eau pluviale […]

The Feline Grimace Scale is a validated tool that uses changes in facial expressions for acute pain assessment in cats. The tool is a valid, reliable, sensitive and specific for feline acute pain recognition for various types of painful conditions (www.felinegrimacescale.com). The aim of this research project is to assess the effects of sedation and […]

I will support and partner with product managers to understand the problem space, the competitive landscape, and the wider social media market. I will also review requests and feedback from customers and internal stakeholders, manage backlogs, and observe/learn how to develop product roadmaps that balance short-term business goals with long-term vision and strategy.

La Covid-19 a été déclarée pandémie par l’Organisation mondiale de la santé le 11 mars 2020, résultant d’abord en un confinement général de la province du Québec de mars à mai 2020, et depuis à des mesures sanitaires restrictives dans le but de diminuer la propagation du virus. Ce projet de recherche porte sur l’adaptation […]

The agglomeration of nanoparticles under flame conditions is numerically simulated. The focus is placed on the interaction forces between particles. These forces are suspected to play an important role on the agglomeration rate, agglomerate’s geometry, and particle size distribution. This is particularly important in the context of aggregates (chemically bound nanoparticles) or agglomerates (physically bound […]

The intern will assist Goh Ballet Academy with marketing strategies to engage the community and build awareness surrounding dance and its benefits. Given current circumstances, much of the work will centre around digital marketing and social media promotion, including but not limited to sustainable social media calendars, content creation, and sales conversion reporting. Through these […]

Neuroprostheses interfacing with brain and spinal tissue are in rapid development and are being applied to clinical treatment of paralysis after spinal cord injury stroke and other neurological disorders. We have developed a versatile intelligent neuroprosthetic agent, a Gaussian Process (GP)-based Bayesian Optimization (BO) approach. We have further laid the theoretical groundwork to cover larger […]

My proposed project consists in completing the final chapters of my doctoral dissertation: The World as Sacrament: The Eucharistic Ontology of Maximos Confessor. In essence, I argue that Maximos’ insistence that all things are created from God (ek theou) according to (kata) the Logos offers a powerful example of sacramental ontology – that is, a […]

iGen Education is an innovative approach to education, which includes offering outdoor courses and integrating STEAM principles into curriculums. The vision behind iGen Education is “Learning beyond the walls of the classroom.” The intern will have the opportunity to promote how our programs can benefit students and their families as well as the greater community, […]

The proposed research project is the virtual delivery of an existing program provided by the partner organization, Calgary Reads. LENA Start is a group program offered to parents of children aged 6 months to 3 years. The goal of the program is the provide parents with information regarding language development in the home and practical […]

The project examines internet fraud as a practice engaged in by individuals who are economically disadvantaged, are unable to find regular jobs, and are not able to migrate to developed countries where work might be found, often because of border restrictions that exclude them. It proposes to study how literary writers have been thinking about […]
