Ce projet vise à évaluer l’implantation du programme Living Without Violence, développé en 2019. Il s’agit d’un programme d’intervention de groupe à distance, pour des hommes auteurs de violence conjugale ou familiale dont la langue d’usage principale est l’anglais et qui sont dispersés sur le territoire québécois. Hors de Montréal, aucun organisme n’offre de services […]

Chronic stress increases the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. Specifically, chronic stress can cause increased microglial activation, leading to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines through the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. Pro-inflammatory cytokines play a role in the development and progression of certain brain diseases. Cerebiome has been associated with a reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. […]

Ammonia is crucial for life as a primary element for fertilizer production and it is also a foundational feedstock for pharmaceuticals, dyes, and chemical synthesis. Ammonia has also emerged as an energy carrier and transportation fuel. Plasma-based reactors are potentially operated by renewable electricity sources (wind and solar), offering lightweight, flexible, straightforward on/off switch, and […]

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the fastest growing global health problem; with a total joint replacement being the only effective treatment for patients with advanced OA. While many studies have employed mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to repair cartilage; only little improvement has been observed and these MSCs are typically isolated from bone marrow or fat which requires […]

Marine mammals have evolved to send and receive underwater sound as their primary means for communicating, finding food, and sensing their environment. Introducing human-generated and other unnatural sources of noise into their environment can cause potentially serious consequences, particularly for those species at conservation risk. Past work on predicting the behavioural response to excessive noise […]

Asthma is an airway disease affecting over 330 million people worldwide. More than >5% of people with asthma experience uncontrolled severe disease despite being treated with high doses of steroids which give them a lot of bad side effects1,2. The availability of a new class of drugs recently called biologics have reduced the number of […]

Sycodal is a Canadian company that empowers local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with cutting-edge digital solutions to overcome human resource shortages and adapt to market fluctuations. It is a member of the NVIDIA Inception program and uses NVIDIA’s technology to add machine learning (ML) and reinforcement learning (RL) capabilities to its automation systems. These […]

Le présent projet vise à aider les municipalités québécoises à se préparer au déploiement de la 5G. Les municipalités ont peu de leviers pour orienter directement la planification des réseaux 5G afin de protéger leurs intérêts et de répondre aux préoccupations de leurs résidents. Néanmoins, ce constat n’a pas empêché certaines villes à l’international de […]

OceanSync collects real time weather data, such as wind speed, wind direction, wave height and other atmospheric conditions on board of seafaring ships. Accurate data collection can be used to improve weather forecast, ocean/atmosphere modeling, satellite validation, climate change studies and reduce ships’ environmental footprint and transport costs. However, wind measurements made on ships are […]

The project will focus on building a toolkit for newcomer entrepreneurs that helps to remove some of the initial barriers of starting a business in a location that you do not know anything about. Within the toolkit, a database of subject matter experts will be established, along with a compilation of links to government and […]

An experiential learning opportunity for an intern to work with software as a solution platform in local server and cloud environments. The intern will gain valuable hands-on experience with data engineering tech stacks and technologies associated with deploying scalable software solutions locally and in the cloud.
