The research project aims to discover the experience of two user groups interacting with a prototype developed by HealthQb. The user groups are patients suffering from anxiety, chronic pain and/or infertility, and their allied health practitioners, such as chiropractors, kinesiologists, naturopaths, osteopaths and physiotherapists. The patients will wear a wearable device that collects biometric data […]

Differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) is a technique that is used for the analysis of chemicals by separating complex gaseous mixtures under the influence of an electric field. It is a widely used technique and is successfully deployed in many areas, including drug and explosives testing at airports. In analytical laboratories, it can be used to […]

Optimiser les processus de gestion électronique des ressources humaines (e-GRH) à l’ère du numérique et de l’intelligence artificielle en mettant l’accent sur les compétences du 21e siècle pour maximiser les performances humaines et organisationnelles. Avec la crise pandémique et l’ère post-COVID, un défi de transformation numérique et d’innovation s’impose pour la e-GRH : Concevoir une […]

The SARS beta coronaviruses, SARS-CoV, which caused the SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) outbreak in 2003 and the new SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, bind to angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors in the lower respiratory tracts of infected patients to gain entry into the lungs. Viral pneumonia and potentially fatal respiratory failure may result in […]

The 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) was first identified on December 31 2019 in Wuhan, China. As of May 23 2020, 5,403,979 COVID-19 cases have been confirmed in 213 countries and territories around the world with an attributed 343,975 deaths.Studies on H1N1 and other pandemics show that Indigenous communities in Canada suffered most from these diseases. […]

Front-line clinicians have reported that different respiratory stiffness results in different COVID-19 patient conditions on ventilators. In this project, we test and improve NovaResp’s monitoring hardware and analyze the collected data for development of algorithms with focus on respiratory stiffness of patients with COVID-19. The resulting algorithms and monitoring device could lead to determine whether […]

It is crucial to understand soil-pipeline interaction to be able to design buried pipes against Geohazards. Soil-pipe interaction in the level ground is well established, and the current design practice is based on the assumption that a pipe is installed on a flat ground surface. In reality, however, pipelines often cross natural slopes and sometimes […]

The proposed research project will enable a patient’s family doctor or specialist or emergency room doctor to quickly view the patients’ healthcare data most important to view to help the patient at that time. For example, before a doctor prescribes a drug, they can quickly make sure it will not cause problems for the patient […]

The evaluation of the wind resource and its associated energy production over the life cycle of the wind power project is one of the most important elements to determine the profitability of a wind power project since a bank bases its decision on the energy production that is estimated to occur with a 99% probability. […]

Presently, there are almost 100,000 people in Canada with COVID-19, the disease caused by the SARS CoV-2 virus, and almost 7000 have died. Although an effective vaccine is the ultimate goal, it is a long way off. To slow the spread and reduce the medical, social, and economic burdens, new treatments are needed. To find […]

Merinio propose une solution de gestion des remplacements : leur logiciel permet à l’employeur de communiquer directement avec les employés pour leur proposer des opportunités de remplacements. De l’autre côté, les employés peuvent prévenir leur employeur de leurs absences (afin que l’employeur puisse savoir qui a besoin d’être remplacé) et de s’ils acceptent une des […]

Avec le « quartier des générations », l’organisme TechnoMontréal réalise une avancée avant-gardiste en ce qui concerne le bien-être de nos aînés. Avec pour mandat de développer un quartier à taille réelle, expérimentant un certain nombre de projets liés à la santé connectée, la présente recherche tâchera de déterminer les forces et failles du présent […]
