Avec l’accroissement de la population mondiale, les territoires nordiques constituent un potentiel croissant de développement pour l’accès aux ressources naturelles. L’augmentation imminente des perturbations dans ces territoires risque d’entrainer un déclin de la provision des services écologiques, soit les bénéfices que les êtres humains obtiennent des écosystèmes. L’objectif de cette recherche est de caractériser l’impact […]

This project proposes a comprehensive analysis of the impact of environmental stress on Antarctic fish, utilizing an integrated approach that combines biophysical and genomic analyses to study adaptation mechanisms. By integrating disciplines, including physics and biology, this research aims to enhance our understanding of evolutionary processes and adaptation strategies of organisms in extreme environments, such […]

This project is dedicated to unveiling how proteins within cell membranes adapt to their surroundings, particularly the lipid environment. Employing computer simulations and machine learning (ML), we focus on RAS signaling proteins and Mga2 transcription factors. RAS proteins, crucial for cell growth and division, are anchored to the cellular membrane and often exhibit mutations in […]

The proposed project will look at participant’s brain activity while completing a stone-stepping task. Brain activity will be measured through EEG while the stone-stepping task will be projected through the Motek C-Mill treadmill. The research goal is to synchronize the data from a motor event occurring on the treadmill to cortical brain activity. The participants […]

The objective of this project is assessing the current distribution of kelp forests and to identify potential areas where the environmental conditions could enhance the development and resilience of kelp forests in the Broughton Archipelago, northeast of Vancouver Island. This information will help research, managers, communities, and Bamfield Marine Science Centre, the partner organization, to […]

This proposal is devoted to two areas of sheep production: animal health (parasitic infection) and feed efficiency, which both impact profitability and sustainability. We will investigate potential machine learning using biomarkers indicating parasite resistance and feed efficiency in differentiated animals early in life. One postdoctoral fellow (PDF) will use metabolomics, genomics, and machine learning to […]

Cyanoborate anions, negatively charged B–CN compounds, have been well established as important building blocks in metal organic frameworks, room-temperature ionic liquids (RTIL’s), and part of metal complexes. RTIL are particularly important in green chemistry, because of absence of any toxic vapours, and in photovoltaic cells, to name only a few applications. Certain cationic species, such […]

Heavy metal toxicity has been a cause for public health concern for decades. There are a variety of industries that both produce heavy metals as a byproduct, or use them directly in consumer products or practical applications. In particular, cadmium (Cd) is one such toxic metal that is known to induce negative effects not only […]

Microbial diseases pose significant threats to agriculture, jeopardizing food security by reducing yields and damaging crops. Understanding how plants sense and respond to pathogens while maintaining growth is crucial. Signal transduction is governed by protein kinases that phosphorylate targets to regulate their activity, localization, and stability. Our research aims to unravel plant immune signaling, to […]

In this project, researchers from the NeuroFUS lab at the University of Calgary led by Dr. Pichardo and Dr. N’Djin’s group from LabTAU at INSERM and the University of Lyon collaborate to improve focused ultrasound (FUS) technology by characterizing a new ring-shaped transducer. FUS is a flexible technique that targets deep tissue with sound waves […]
