Forests play a vital role in the environment, biodiversity, and human societies. To safeguard these crucial ecosystems, effective risk assessment and management strategies are essential. Our initiative employs Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Geographic Information Systems, Remote Sensing, and satellite imagery to assess and alleviate risks to forest species. This approach integrates diverse variables to create comprehensive […]

The research project will test how nature based solutions (NbS) could be integrated into real projects for climate change adaptation in Canada. The research project will provide a guideline for professionals to understand, justify, and measure the financial and non-financial value of NbS in adaptation work. This project will robustly translate theory into practice, considering […]

In this research project, we aim to explore the role of the bacteria living within the urinary tract, or the urinary microbiome, during kidney transplantation. Using urine samples from human kidney transplant recipients and donors, we will use bacterial gene sequencing to determine how the urinary microbiome changes over time and during rejection of the […]

Anthrax is a disease of importance for the human and veterinary fields. It has the potential to be used as a bioweapon; however, this threat is relatively rare compared to the risk it poses for ruminants world-wide. Even though a vaccine is available for cattle it is under-utilized. This project will review the data and […]

L’objectif principal de cette étude est d’évaluer et de comparer l’efficacité des biotechnologies basées sur les additifs à base de consortium microbien et de biocharbon dans l’atténuation des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) et d’ammoniac (NH3) provenant des effluents de ferme en production porcine sur litière accumulée. Cette recherche vise à fournir […]

La production animale entraine de nombreux défis et des pressions exercées par la société concernant la tendance du marché international et l’exigence de systèmes de production plus respectueux du bien-être animal et de l’environnement. Le secteur laitier assiste à une transition des étables à stabulation entravée (SE) vers de nouvelles étables à stabulation libre (SL). […]

L’intégration de dispositifs et systèmes micro-électro-mécaniques nécessitent un contrôle très précis des étapes de microfabrication et des matériaux microélectroniques qui sont utilisés dans ce processus. Chaque étape de procédé doit être validé avec des structures tests aussi appelées PCM (“Process Control Monitoring”). Ces PCMs permettent, entre autres choses, de valider les épaisseurs et propriétés mécaniques […]

We want to create an artificial intelligent assistant for businesses. It uses state-of-art Natural Language Processing models to understand what people say and seamlessly converting it into computer executable orders. For example, if someone asks, “How much did we spend on training?” it can turn that it into a meticulously structured SQL query such as […]

Project 1 StrokeSENS™ is a software as a service business aimed at providing physicians with an acute stroke decision aid tool, that will leverage artificial intelligence (AI), advanced image-processing, and network connectivity to support physicians and other healthcare team members to simplify stroke care, with a focus on enabling front line stroke centers. Circle NVI’s […]

Cloud computing is gaining traction during this last decade through its offering of almost unlimited computer resources accessible from anywhere with minimal management efforts. However, one of its less favorable aspects is security. Currently, the flexibility and elasticity of the cloud are not adequately used to put in place a more efficient defense. This project […]
