The risk of heart disease in women is underestimated, however once women enter menopause there is a large increase in disease risk, with heart disease accounting for ~75% of deaths in postmenopausal women. However, the full bodily changes that women experience during, and in the time after menopause is not understood. Additionally, it is well-known […]

Canada and Germany have ambitious plans to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and 2045, requiring significant changes in the power system, such as substituting centralized fossil fuel power plants with distributed renewable energy resources and electrification of transportation, construction, and heavy industry. These changes have reduced system inertia, vital for grid operation. On the path […]

À l’aide d’algorithmes quantiques d’optimisation, développer des méthodes de tractographie sur des graphes, dans le vue d’avoir une méthode globale de déterminer des connexions dans le cerveau.

Le projet de recherche consiste en une étude à la fois théorique et pratique de l’activisme actionnarial. Il s’inscrit dans le contexte d’une thèse de doctorat en droit des sociétés, gouvernance d’entreprise, menée à l’Université de Lausanne sous la supervision des professeurs Damiano Canapa et Jean-Luc Chenaux. Le séjour de plusieurs semaines à l’Université de […]

The goal of the project is to establish a high-throughput screening platform that can be used to identify small molecules that improve the muscle cell membrane fragility that is characteristic of Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients. To do this, Ms. Ainoa Tejedera Villafranca will be hosted by the Gilbert Lab in Toronto to (a) be trained […]

Selenium nanoparticles are used in the biomedical field to treat diseases such as diabetes and inflammatory diseases. Also, many studies have been reported on the antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-leishmaniasis, and anti-biofilm activity of these nanoparticles. Other applications of selenium nanoparticles are included in dye degradation and use for mercury bioremediation. The aim of this study […]

Plants face various pathogen challenges. Pathogen infection can not only trigger local defence responses to restrict pathogen growth at the primary infection sites, it can also induce plants to generate mobile signals, which move to the uninfected tissue to protect them from further pathogen attack. This primed immunity is called systemic acquired resistance (SAR). A […]

The objective of this project is to determine the usability and acceptance of Teacher Time Machine web application as an AI power platform for teachers, administrators, and school district leaders. It will involve doing market research, creating a market strategy and determining and testing execution of marketing steps. The partner organization will benefit by having […]

The proposed MITACS internship project is an extension of an existing research collaboration in advanced aerodynamic flow control concepts with electro-fluidic actuators between École Polytechnique de Montréal (Polytechnique) and the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT-K). The former party is responsible for wind tunnel experiments and the latter party for advanced flow simulations with a […]
