The Great River Rapport is an initiative that involves collaboration, consultation, and input from scientists, Indigenous partners, citizens and students. The goal is to provide a report on the health of the Upper St. Lawrence River ecosystem and inspire people to become engaged and aware of how ecosystem health is linked to all of us. […]

With the increasing complexity of study designs in biomedical research, biomedical scientists are often challenged with tasks of analyzing data measured by complex study design. Although most statistical analyses assume the end results are independent, the outcomes of repeated measurements taken on the same subjects are in fact dependent, which may contribute to the failure […]

L’aménagement du territoire en zone boréale pose des défis environnementaux importants. Le maintien de la conservation d’écosystèmes sains et résilients dans un contexte d’aménagement de la forêt pour des fins commerciales requiert un effort de coordination entre les parties-prenantes de la gestion du territoire. Les compagnies forestières qui planifient l’aménagement du territoire, les communautés autochtones, […]

Même si une forte croissance de la production laitière caprine au Canada est observée au cours des 20 dernières années, la productivité des fermes laitières caprines dépend de plusieurs facteurs liés à la génétique et à la régie de troupeau. La nutrition des chevrettes laitières et des méthodes d’élevage des chevrettes ont été identifiées comme […]

Cette étude vise à développer et valider un panel de petites molécules circulantes d’acide ribonucléique (ARN) non codantes appelées microARN (miRNAs) qui peuvent être utilisées pour prédire le risque de développer une scoliose sévère chez les enfants symptomatiques le plus tôt possible. Cela permettrait, une fois commercialisé, d’identifier les enfants à risque de développer une […]

Privacy and Security are key considerations in any machine learning system. The proposed research will develop net methods for preserving privacy when training data and/or model parameters are released in the public domain. We will use methods from information theory to develop quantitative measures for privacy and security in machine learning systems. Using this framework […]

The proposed research project will improve CM Labs’ operator training simulators with animated human characters that interact and respond to the underlying physical simulation. This will relay important dynamical cues to the trainee about the safety and correctness of the procedures. Furthermore, the developed animation controllers will allow objects to be manipulated in a realistic […]

The main objective of this project is to design and test millimeter-wave RF front end components for applications in 5G new radio communication systems utilizing the thin-film multilayer LTCC fabrication process developed at ACAMP. With these fabricated and characterized prototypes, ACAMP will be able to showcase its specialized LTCC fabrication process and provide support to […]

The Project’s objective is to continue with development and optimization of the promising HTL biocrude upgrading approach that has been executed during the previous MITACS Converge/Accelerated project. The activities are going to be focus on in-situ hydrogen production to limit external cost of hydrogen and process optimization for the obtention of Jet and Marine fuel […]

Making sure patients have well controlled post-operative pain is imperative for patient well-being, optimal recovery, and to prevent chronic pain from developing. Opioid medications are often used to treat post-surgical pain, but some people respond in unpredictable ways and this may be related to their genetics. Pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing is a way of finding out […]

Alors que les attentes étaient grandes, la Conférence ministérielle de Buenos Aires de l’OMC s’est conclue sans même que soit adoptée une Déclaration ministérielle commune, entraînant ainsi de vifs débats sur la fonction de négociation de l’Organisation mondiale du commerce. La précédente conférence ministérielle tenue en 2015 s’était conclue sur une absence de consensus quant […]

The goal of this project is to develop a detailed strategic analysis and market/finance/commercialization strategy identifying gaps/barriers, opportunities/resources and benefits of developing the Ai/IoT digital “Stormwater Smartgrid” technology and its concomitant implementation business model for North American market. This research project in collaboration with McMaster University will help RainGrid to facilitate the commercialization of the […]
