Plants are always exposed to and attacked by pathogenic microbes in natural environment. Phytoalexin deficient 4 (PAD4) plays an important role in plant defense to pathogens. PAD4, EDS1 and SAG101 form a specific family containing lipase domain at N-termini. PAD4 interacts with EDS1, but not SAG101 to form heterologous complex. Recently, we demonstrated tha PAD4 […]

Dysfunction of mitochondria, the cellular powerhouses, plays an important role in a plethora human disorders, including rare genetic myopathies such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Mitochondrial dysfunction also causes stem cell abnormalities in several tissues including skeletal muscle. For this reason, modulation of mitochondrial quality is increasingly proposed as a therapeutic strategy to prevent/restore cellular […]

Ce projet vise une « analyse de la viabilité technique des méthodes d’apprentissage automatique appliquées pour l’estimation de l’état de charge dans les véhicules hors route ». Spécifiquement, nous allons définir les structures de méthodes d’apprentissage automatique pour l’estimation de l’état de charge, les implémenter dans différents types de processeurs et les valider sur de […]

Dans un monde où la lutte contre le changement climatique devient une priorité, ce projet vise à réduire les émissions de carbone du transport lourd sur des circuits courts. Imaginez des camions, essentiels à notre économie, devenant plus propres et plus efficaces. Ce projet explore des méthodes novatrices pour rendre cela possible en optimisant les […]

Abnormal knee loading is known to contribute towards knee osteoarthritis, causing tissue damage and pain. High tibial osteotomy is a surgical procedure that corrects abnormal knee loading conditions and alleviates osteoarthritis symptoms. However, we don’t fully understand how different surgical procedures affect joint tissues. Establishing the relationship between joint structure and joint surgery presents an […]

Au Canada, 288 800 personnes âgées de 15 ans et plus utilisent un fauteuil roulant manuel ou motorisé ou un quadriporteur. Les bénéfices de aides à la mobilité pour les personnes ayant des incapacités sont bien connus. Volting (www.volting.org) est une technologie actuellement en développement qui se distingue du fauteuil roulant par sa capacité à […]

Selecting the right person for a job or admitting the right individual into a medical school of similar professional program is an important but complex task. Decision-makers rely on assessment tools to help them know more about the knowledge, skills, and abilities of potential applicants before they make their choices. The Casper test by Acuity […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

There are over 250 million scientific publications and reports with an increasing rate published each year, yet many are not accessible to the public due to their technical language and content hidden behind paywalls. This project aims to leverage AI (Artificial Intelligence) and a curated database of ocean-climate literature to enable educators and students to […]

One of the situations that the Forensic Science needs to address is to establish the identity of a human or an specimen from a biological sample. The contribution of this project will be to obtain an optimized method for extracting DNA from hairs with and without follicles and to generate allelic frequencies suitable for use […]

Nous allons faire l’analyse par résonance magnétique nucléaire du solide de bétons contenant du métakaolin (argile calcinée). Il est considéré que le métakaolin pourrait éventuellement remplacer le ciment Portland, dont la fabrication est l’un des principaux contributeurs à l’émission de gaz à effet de serre. Ce stage se fera dans le laboratoire de Science et […]

This research project will explore how a Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis can aid in enhancing the sustainable Basa fish industry in Vietnam. Enhancement is achieved through increasing market value, reducing the impact on global seafood supply chains and reducing negative local environmental impacts. GIS is an application that allows for complex spatial analysis of […]
