The “RESOLUTION: Resilient Systems for Land Use Transportation” is an ongoing project that focuses on the ways in which the impact of transportation infrastructure in terms of operation and provision leads to social and spatial segregation across major metropolitan regions across the World. My job would be to collaborate with Federal University of ABC to […]

Organisms have enormous amounts of instructions encoded in their DNA. When DNA sequences are found using sequencing methods, such as New Generation Sequencing, they are stored as very large datasets. Merely knowing the sequence of an organism’s DNA is not enough, however, and there needs to be further processing of the datasets to extract meaningful […]

Since the 1990s, states have rolled back funding for social service provision. The conventional wisdom among researchers is that these cuts led to a groundswell of faith-based organisations seeking to respond to the gaps in social service provision left by the diminished capacity of the state. Around the same time, leading scholars asked a pertinent […]

This project aims at investigating the causes of Salafism appeal, especially on youth, in the historical context of the post-Arab spring, in Tunisia and in the Chinese province of Xinjiang. As Henri Lauzière extensively explained in his latest work, (2016) the Salafi ideology is complex and it doesn’t make consensus. Many scholars have already pointed […]

The proposed study evaluates The Core Connectors Initiative (CCI), a high school-based suicide prevention program designed to help youth gain peer support skills and mental health knowledge. CCI involves two phases, a 14-module training phase and an action phase. Facilitators who have backgrounds in counselling psychology or related disciplines will pilot the program in 5 […]

Members of the SCI community must be involved in the process of designing and implementing SCI research to ensure the largest impact possible. SCI Ontario, an organization that supports people with SCI, is strategically planning their efforts to ensure research is used in practice. Understanding the needs and priorities of SCI communities and their families […]

About 65 percent of organizations worldwide have talent management (TM) practices in place, with 5 to 10 percent of their employees being identified as a talent annually. Seemingly unhindered by a lack of empirical evidence, in recent years organizations have decided to include more and more employees in their talent pools, with the goal of […]

Les jeunes placés en foyer de groupe et en centre de réadaptation constituent une population fort vulnérable car ils présentent des troubles importants dans plusieurs sphère de fonctionnement et de développement, dits « traumas complexes ». Pour répondre aux besoins de ces enfants, plusieurs modèles d’intervention spécialisés en trauma complexe ont été développés. Ce projet […]

Measuring the workout intensity and duration is necessary to judge training effectiveness. For instance, a training modality called high intensity interval training (HIIT), involves exercising for short intervals with maximum intensity combined with longer low-intensity recovery intervals. This form of training would help the metabolism to use more fat as fuel, improving athletic endurance, and […]

In this project we are proposing a framework that uses wireless communication links to enable decentralized and real-time load flow analysis of distribution systems. This analysis is performed by smart agents installed at each bus in the distribution system. Using the outcome of this analysis we can perform decentralized real-time control. The proposed framework allows […]

Electrical Energy represents one of the fastest growing types of energy; however this growth is accompanied by diminishing fossil fuel resources. Renewable sources of energyespecially solar- represent one of the possible ways to meet this increased demand. For that reason , many countries have ambitious plans for increasing their electricity production from solar energy. Utilities […]

Teachers are being challenged to integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) across the curriculum more frequently and effectively. Many teachers are challenged with these aspects for several reasons. In particular, subject areas are still isolated in British Columbia (BC), and only a few schools truly have STEM/STEAM programs. Secondly, STEM is more often […]
