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 […]

The overview of the Globalink research project seeks to examine and discuss the use of creative pedagogy in Chinese and Canadian classrooms for grades 1-6 and 7-9, focusing on cross-curricular learning. One objective is to compare student engagement and behaviour. The Ontario curriculum offers many opportunities for the integration of subjects, and we aim to […]

This research project will explore how environmental education (EE) in kindergarten classrooms can build lifelong habits of environmental stewardship by comparing practices in Ontario, Canada, and China. Using the framework of the Reciprocal Learning Program, the study highlights how cultural exchange can improve teaching methods and outcomes in both regions. By examining daily routines and […]

This project aims to look at how Chinese teachers integrate environmental studies into their high school History classes. Throughout the course of this research, this project will also explore the strategies that Chinese teachers use to engage the students within their class. In a time of pressing environmental concerns, this project will provide greater insight […]

Advanced packaging and high-density chip stacking technologies are pivotal in the evolution of microelectronics, enabling enhanced performance through heterogeneous integration. As the industry moves toward reducing bump size and pitch, the bonding methodology has shifted from solder balls to Cu pillars. Although Cu pillars with solder caps have successfully replaced solder bumps, they encounter technical […]

Face à l’urgence climatique et la nécessité de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre, ce projet de recherche se focalise sur des stratégies innovantes pour la valorisation du CO2. Cette recherche s’inscrit dans un contexte de transition énergétique et de lutte contre le changement climatique, où transformer le CO2 en produits chimiques […]

As a cultural historian, my research examines the history of contemporary Chinese photography, photo theory, and the intellectual and cultural politics of contemporary China. Through a detailed examination of numerous art, photography, and academic journals, along with exhibition catalogues and archival material from artists, my research seeks to analyse the historical and intellectual roots of […]

The main objective of the project by both interns (with tasks defined for each in the timelines) is aimed at the field of building sustainable water resiliency, adaptation and management with the following specific sub-objectives: • To evaluate monitoring technologies of eutrophication on water reservoirs. • To evaluate technologies for prevention and remediation of eutrophication […]

The proposed project fosters collaboration between Sabanci University and the University of Waterloo, offering significant benefits to both institutions. Sabanci University will gain access to advanced imaging and gas analysis techniques available at Waterloo, enabling precise characterization and optimization of the CO2 capture system. This enhances the quality and impact of ongoing research at Sabanci. […]
