This project investigates how different genes involved in DNA repair work together to keep cancer cells alive. We’re focusing on a specific process called translesion synthesis (TLS), which helps cells bypass damage in their DNA. By understanding these genetic interactions, we hope to identify new ways to target and kill cancer cells, especially those that […]

Robotic technology is starting to leave enclosed industrial spaces and research labs and enter human society and communities. However, the impact of robots on humans is not well understood, and this lack of understanding limits the safety and effectiveness of their deployment. The primary objective of this research project is to investigate the emotional and […]

Le projet de recherche proposé vise à étudier comment les fonds de pension canadiens peuvent mieux évaluer la performance de leurs investissements, en particulier ceux qui ne sont pas cotés en bourse, comme l’immobilier ou les infrastructures. Le stagiaire fera une revue des études existantes pour identifier des indices de référence (ou benchmarks) qui permettraient […]

With an ever-expanding list of critical materials and minerals, it is crucial to find sustainable material solutions to well-established industrial requirements. High-entropy materials, i.e. materials that mix 5 or more constituents in near equi-atomic proportions, could mitigate these issues by offering highly resistant and stable materials. As a result, addressing the issues of critical materials […]

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a family of materials that are host to many quantum phenomena which could potentially be used to build the next generation of high-speed, energy-efficient electronic devices. These materials are comprised of atomically thin sheets stacked on top of each other, with the interactions between sheets playing a critical role in […]

L’enseignement auprès des patients est un aspect crucial à la trajectoire de récupération améliorée après la chirurgie (RAAC). L’environnement numérique d’apprentissage (ENA), incluant un espace de suivi des apprentissages en ligne, représente un outil utile pour assurer un transfert d’informations plus spécifique et pédagogique. Ce projet vise à explorer l’acceptabilité, la faisabilité et les effets […]

The aim of this project is to produce a new critical evidence base on the transferability of policies and practices geared towards place adaptation and urban retrofit. Urban retrofit is defined as repairing existing places by adapting urban form to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, protect the environment, and support sustainable lifestyles. The project […]

Exploring the structure and behavior of turbulent jets is a fundamental challenge in fluid mechanics. The application of turbulent jets in environmental and industrial contexts has led to a rise in both experimental and numerical research in this area. Nevertheless, the examination of counter-flowing jets released into a turbulent background has received less attention in […]

My research project will be investigating the effects of climate change, through ocean acidification and warming, on the growth rate of a coralline algae species that is prevalent in arctic and subarctic oceans. Coralline algae take in calcium carbonate from seawater and form hard skeletons, similar to a coral reef. In doing so, they create […]

The Gabriel Dumont Institute Training & Employment (GDITE) project aims to formalize its innovative “Relentless Support” career development model, which focuses on Métis strengths, community-based development, and cultural alignment. Unlike traditional, individualistic career development models, GDITE’s approach emphasizes reciprocity, joy, and long-term local workforce sustainability. This project will document the fluidity and success of the […]

Lokpriy is studying decentralization policies in the developing world, with a primary focus on India. His research topic is “Three Essays on Discourse of Decentralization: Understanding the Influence of Political Competition and Development Outcomes in India”. His research focuses on, examining the global political and economic context for decentralization and how the different components of […]
