The proposed research project aims to investigate how Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a microorganism commonly used in the food and biofuel industry, responds to changes in temperature and manages to withstand high temperatures. Yeast cells face various types of stress as the environment conditions change, both in natural situations and during industrial processes. S. cerevisiae has developed […]

It is widely accepted in Canada that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the engine of the national economy responsible for 98% of businesses and employing more than 10 million individuals. To continue growing and supporting the national economy, SMEs can internationalize to seek increased profits and gain a competitive edge. One industry that can […]

L’objectif de ce projet de recherche en histoire est d’étudier l’évolution des systèmes d’alerte et de communication employés au sein du service de police de Trois-Rivières et d’analyser plus particulièrement les conséquences sur l’exercice de la sécurité publique de l’installation des téléphones d’alarme à partir des années 1920. L’hypothèse poursuivie est que cet aménagement technologique […]

The proposed project is centered on developing an advanced technique known as Magnetic Resonance Navigation (MRN) for liver cancer treatment. This cutting-edge method employs the magnetic field of MRI machines to create micro-particle aggregates, which are then precisely directed to liver tumor-feeding arteries using magnetic field gradients. This approach promises to be less invasive and […]

Les Streptocoques du groupe B (SGB) sont connus pour être l’une des principales causes de maladies infectieuses invasives chez les nouveau-nés en Amérique du Nord mais également à l’échelle mondiale. Le contrôle des infections à SGB repose sur une utilisation d’antimicrobiens dont l’efficacité n’est pas totalement satisfaisante tel que la pénicilline étant administré en première […]

North American pet food industry utilizes predictive equations such as those including modified Atwater equations to estimate energy density. However research has shown these equations tend to overestimate energy which predisposes companion animals to be in positive energy balance and obese. One method for attaining better predictive energy density models would be to quantify net […]

We will assess the quality and suitability of blood and blood-derived products using a fast and economical approach that combines measurements of molecules in the blood product identified by their weight and computational approaches to make sense of all the data generated. Normal blood products have thousands of small molecules in common. By monitoring a […]

This project is aimed at supporting the translation of research innovation from the laboratory into the market. Our proposed innovation involves the use of a newly improved biomaterial in toothpastes to help transform oral health and hygiene. The proposed toothpaste will be effective in addressing tooth caries and discoloration, and simultaneously increase enamel hardness to […]

Partant du constat de l’écart entre le grand écart existant entre l’adoption de normes de droits humains et leur application réelle dans les pays centraméricains considérés, comment et pourquoi des acteurs continuent à s’appuyer sur ces normes pour entreprendre leurs luttes? La recherche comporte un triple objectif : (1) comprendre les raisons de l’adoption de […]

In the emerging sector of fintech, a novel concept known as a home equity investment is gaining traction, offering homeowners a way to access their property’s value without selling it. This financial instrument involves an investor providing a cash infusion to homeowners in exchange for a 20% ownership stake in their home. Homeowners then have […]

The goal of this research is to utilize alternative sources to plastic in the development of straws. This makes use of natural and biodegradable materials to source for the development and testing of straws.
