The project addresses a theoretical issue that arises due to somewhat ‘unexpected’ uses of the imperfect subjunctive verbal form, quisiera, in Spanish. In the descriptive linguistic literature, it is noted that, quisiera, can be used for a conditional (e.g., I would do) or past perfect (e.g., I had done) meaning depending on the variety of […]

Le projet de recherche qui sera entrepris en France vient dans le cadre d’un projet de thèse qui met en question l’effet de la manifestation des gradients de contrainte sur les propriétés électromécaniques et photoniques des couches minces de titanate de strontium (SrTiO3) synthétisés par la méthode de pulvérisation cathodique. Un des principaux objectifs de […]

In cities around the world, land is disputed between groups of people from different religious, socioeconomic, class, and ethnic backgrounds. These differences and contestations play out in the urban landscape by creating divided cities. Jerusalem is one of the most divided cities in the world, and has received little scholarly attention with regards to gendered […]

My research interests lie in the sphere of delimitation of continental shelves outside 200 nautical miles in the High North and involve emerging challenges of today. The process and principles of delimitation, influence of geomorphology and geopolitics are core questions of my study. The establishment of maritime borders in the Arctic is very important for […]

Police interrogations of suspected offenders plays a pivotal role in criminal investigations and subsequent prosecutions. Unsurprisingly, the way police interrogate suspects has been the subject of much scrutiny as they sometimes lead to false confessions and incarcerations. Surprisingly, however, the effect that various techniques have on eliciting false confessions has not been the subject of […]

The Belt Road Initiative is grand multinational project devised by China to advance globalization and barrier-free trade. Marketed as “The New Silk Road”, this initiative goes against traditionally muted foreign policy of the Communist Party of China and will serve to transform the entire face of Central Asia, Africa, and Europe. The project is unique […]

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) is a contributing member of the National DNA Data Bank Committee, which provides an annual report related to the operations regulating the National DNA Data Bank (NDDB). The NDDB holds genetic samples of individuals and is searched during the course of a criminal investigation when genetic […]

N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) is a reactive molecule which shows surprising reactivity toward various small molecules – such as bond activation of inert compounds. Although NHCs have shown their great reactivity, there still remains a lot of interesting molecules yet to be activated by NHCs. The objective of this project is to elevate the reactivity of […]

Professor Hannes Brunner at Wiessensee Academy of Art Berlin is experienced with making work that encourages public and social engagement and environmental designs. I am hoping to learn from his expertise of making work that involves these themes. Berlin is known internationally for its thriving arts and queer communities. Conducting research in Berlin will give […]

I am working on graph Recolouring in reflexive digraphs and the host supervisor is working on Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal Coloring. I and the host supervisor will work on graph graph Recolouring in Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal colourings so our objectives is calculating complexity of graph recolouring in Locally Injective Homomorphisms and k-Frugal […]

Dysfunctions of the placenta leads to a serious pregnancy associated disease of the mother called preeclampsia (PE) and certain forms of fetal growth restriction (FGR) that are hard to treat or prevent. Our laboratory has shown that overproduction of decorin, a molecule made by the pregnant uterus, leads to placental defects resulting in PE and […]

The project involves identifying changes in mineralization during the drilling of the blast holes. During drilling, an experienced driller is able, to a certain extent, to detect signals that indicate that a zone change is occurring: vibration in the cabin, rotation rate, etc. The aim of this research project is to use data collected by […]
