Shrinking the Digital Divide: Improving Digital Literacy in Rural Regions

This research would offer a new, policy-oriented comparative analysis of international digital literacy strategies aiming to lessen the digital divide. Unlike much of the existing literature, this research would place the focus on initiatives made to further develop digital literacy, rather than digital infrastructure rollout. This research would build on Chetty’s (2018) findings about the […]

L2M – Validating Nanobubble Technology for Sustainable Water Use in the Canadian Ecosystem

This project focuses on exploring how a new water based technology—called a nanobubble generator—can help solve common challenges in agriculture, aquaculture, and water treatment across Canada. Nanobubbles are minuscule gas bubbles that improve water quality by increasing oxygen levels, cleaning surfaces, and reducing the need for harmful chemicals. While this technology has seen success in […]

Characterizing Next-Generation Aerogels: From Plant-Based Cellulose interfacial assembly to Enhanced Energy Storage and electromagnetic interference (EMI) Shielding

The proposed project aims to develop sustainable cellulose-based aerogels containing conductive materials like MXenes and graphene for electromagnetic interference shielding and energy storage applications. By exploring interfacial assembly mechanisms through advanced characterization techniques available at CEMES-CNRS, such as in-situ electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, the research will clarify how these materials form structured aerogels. Understanding […]

Understanding signal drift in electrochemical aptamer-based sensors to achieve long-term continuous biomonitoring

This project aims to improve electrochemical aptamer-based sensors, that can monitor important biomolecules in real time, directly inside the body or in other complex environments. These sensors are promising because they can be adapted to detect many different targets, but their use is limited by a gradual loss of stability and performance over time. To […]

L2M –Sustainable alternative supplementary cementitious materials using oat husk

This project explores innovative ways to convert agricultural residues (i.e., oat husks) into sustainable construction materials. Specifically, the research focuses on developing and validating cement replacement products derived from agro-waste, which can help reduce the carbon footprint of concrete, a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. The intern will work closely with both academic […]

Preparing NEXT to Study Exotic Nuclei on a One-Atom-at-a-Time Scale

This research project supports the development of the NEXT experiment in Groningen, which studies rare, short-lived atomic nuclei important for understanding how the heaviest elements in the universe are formed. These special nuclei, produced in high-energy reactions, are difficult to make and study due to their low production rates and short lifetimes. The intern will […]

L2M Next-Gen Pellet Extrusion 3D printer: Eliminating Barriers to Performance and Precision

This project focuses on solving key problems in large-scale pellet-fed 3D printing, a technology that holds great promise for cost-effective, sustainable manufacturing. Unlike traditional 3D printers that use expensive filaments, pellet-fed printers use raw plastic pellets directly, making them more affordable and flexible for industries like construction, automotive, and tooling. However, the current systems have […]

L2M – Additive Manufacturing of Advanced Ceramics for Patient-Specific Components in Dentistry

This project aims to develop next-generation dental implants using Yttria (Y2O3)–Zirconia (ZrO2) composites through advanced ceramic additive manufacturing. The work will begin with a pre-prototyping validation survey to assess market needs, clinical requirements, and user preferences. Based on the survey findings, material and process optimization will be carried out to produce clinically viable prototypes. The […]

Stratonovich solution for hyperbolic Anderson model with space-time homogeneous Gaussian noise

Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are mathematical models that describe random phenomena evolving over space and time. SPDEs underpin modern approaches to modeling phenomena in fields such as climate science, neuroscience, financial mathematics, engineering and quantum physics. The aim of the project is to construct a new solution to a particular SPDE and investigate the […]
