Mon projet consiste à explorer l’interface entre électrode et électrolyte solide pour le développement des batteries lithium-ion tout solide en utilisant la DFT (chimie computationnelle). La batterie aux ions lithium est le système de stockage d’énergie le plus prometteur qui puisse être couplé aux énergies renouvelables. Néanmoins, la présence de solvants inflammables dans l’électrolyte liquide […]

Proteins make up a large part of every organism, comprising a significant portion of teeth, hair, bone, tissue, and horn. The composition of proteins is highly variable, and these differences cause the physical differences between, species, populations, and individuals and give rise to many of the pathologies that can affect organisms. Studying proteins and their […]

This innovative investigation into cross-border, online biliteracy curriculum is a timely response to Canada’s two major future challenge areas, namely, how to leverage emerging technologies to benefit Canadians and what knowledge to produce for Canada to thrive in an interconnected, evolving global landscape. Led by experienced researchers in the areas of cross-border literacy curriculum and […]

The deployment of WSN in various field actually boost the quality of our daily life. Unfortunately, with the increasingly exponential growth of devices and vulnerability of wireless transmission being exposed to the air, secure transmission of WSN has drawn plenty of attention both in the community of communication and signal processing. For the sake of […]

Children in Canada have become less physically active; in fact, only 9% of Canadian children meet the guidelines that are recommended. A number of different programs have been created to help children move better and feel more confident with their movement skills. Sharing Dance is a community program that uses dance to help children become […]

Ca2+ is a very important signaling molecules for animals and plants alike. Ca2+ signaling has been heavily studied in animals but relatively less is understood in plants. Cyclic Nucleotide Gated Ion Channels (CNGCs) are important channels that are thought to be important in regulating Ca2+ homeostasis under different conditions in plants. The goal of this […]

“Stories Without Borders” is a collaborative educational project between a Canadian and a Mexican research team, with the support of the Canadian NGO Education without Borders (EwB). The research problem addressed is: How can children’s stories written in English and other Indigenous languages for Indigenous children in Canada best be translated into Indigenous Mexican languages […]

Partant des concepts de droit à la ville (Lefebre, 1968) et de justice spatiale (Soja 2010), cette étude considère les espaces publics (Paquot, 2015) comme une ressource urbaine, indispensable à l’utilisation du transport en commun (TC). Les adolescentes sont confrontées à l’exclusion, en particulier dans les villes du Sud: les filles sont responsables des tâches […]

With increasing involvement Artificial Intelligenct (AI) technology in our daily lives, we need to learn about factors that can facilitate people’s trust in and liking of an AI, which can promote better human-AI interactions and eventually help humans to benefit from the service that AI provides. Self-disclosing behaviours, or acts of revealing one’s personal information […]

This project seeks to develop a comprehensive understanding of the emergence of the regulation of cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin). First, this project looks to the history of cryptocurrencies and other blockchain technologies, mapping the rise in consumer use of the online currency. Next, this study pulls legal cases from the international and domestic sphere which regulate […]

One of the major challenges facing the 21st century is the antibacterial fight. Traditional methods such as antibiotics are ineffective in many cases of chronic infections or food contaminations. One of the reasons for this phenomenon is the formation of biofilms where bacteria are protected from the environment by a protective barrier made of polymers. […]

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common form of cancer in men from developed countries, and ranks second in cancer-related deaths. The rapid recurrence of drug-resistant tumors in patients with incurable androgen-independent castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC-AI) underscores the need for more effective therapies. Our recent findings suggest that androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) enriches for […]
