Developmental language disorders (DLDs) are among the most common early-childhood disorders, affecting between 8-12% of children worldwide. If left untreated, DLD can lead to significant professional and interpersonal difficulties later in life. While speech therapy is highly effective, the barrier-to-access is high with regards to cost, availability of speech therapists, and the delay between detection […]

Afin de limiter l’impact environnemental de l’industrie de la construction, le recyclage des bétons sous forme de granulats recyclés pour la production de nouveau béton est une pratique de plus en plus courante. Néanmoins, il n’existe pas de marché pour les particules les plus fines, notamment en raison des réglementations strictes en vigueur. L’option proposée […]

Ce projet révolutionnaire intègre les capteurs quantiques et l’Internet des objets (IoT) pour optimiser la surveillance des infrastructures de transport, notamment les ponts et les routes. Dans un contexte de vieillissement des infrastructures et de pressions climatiques croissantes, les capteurs quantiques se distinguent par leur capacité à détecter des phénomènes invisibles aux technologies classiques, comme […]

Les forêts boréales, couvrant 10 % de la surface terrestre, sont essentielles à notre planète. Elles stockent du carbone, régulent le climat, fournissent des ressources comme le bois ou le papier, et abritent une riche biodiversité. Cependant, elles sont menacées par les changements climatiques, qui entraînent des feux de forêt plus fréquents et intenses, modifiant […]

Ce projet combine les capteurs quantiques et l’Internet des objets (IoT) pour améliorer la surveillance des infrastructures de transport, telles que les ponts et les routes. Face au vieillissement des infrastructures et aux défis climatiques, les capteurs quantiques offrent une précision exceptionnelle pour détecter des phénomènes invisibles comme la corrosion et les variations de température. […]

In wanting to better understand how the intersections of gender identity and expression, sexuality, racialization and ethnicity are taught within mental health care, education and professional practice, the overall objective of this research project is to learn how LGBTQ+ identities are taught to and understood by psychology students in Brazil. Dr. Dhebar will learn intersectional […]

The objective of this project is to investigate policy challenges identified by Munk’s Ukrainian partners and identify innovative solutions based on consultation with Munk and KSE faculty, extant research, and available evidence. 6 KSE-Munk students will prepare 10-page policy briefs addressing these challenges. Students will present their briefs at a student conference in April 2025. […]

Le projet proposé vise à évaluer l’impact des sténoses, c’est-à-dire un rétrécissement de l’artère, sur la cognition, en particulier comment leur présence et leur localisation affectent divers domaines cognitifs, comme la mémoire et les habiletés motrices. L’étude se distingue par l’utilisation d’outils de caractérisation des artères développés à Sherbrooke, incluant un algorithme capable de détecter […]

New, greener methods for performing large-scale industrial chemical reactions are critical to decoupling the chemical industry from fossil fuels. Once such emerging category of reactions known as chemoenzymatic reactions are reliant on fossil fuel-derived solvents to run the reactions. Chemoenzymatic reactions are critical in making complex molecules essential in the pharmaceutical and materials industries. We […]

The one-year project will investigate the geological, geochemical and geophysical properties of three Rare Earth Element (REE) deposits in Québec. Each of the selected deposit is representative of a class of REE mineral deposits. The project will provide new insights in the origin of the three types of REE mineral deposits. This new understanding of […]

The proposed project, “Nature and Nurture: A Comparative Study of Environmental Education in China and Canada,” aims to explore how Environmental Education (EE) is implemented within educational systems in both countries. Through observing and analyzing various aspects—such as the curriculum, teacher engagement, and community involvement—the project will identify best practices and challenges in fostering environmental […]
