In Canada, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths for both sexes. Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes ~85% of lung cancer cases. Mutations in the KRAS and EGFR genes are two most common oncogenic drivers for NSCLC and responsible for ~30% and ~15% of NSCLCs, respectively. Unlike the EGFR-mutant type, KRAS-mutant NSCLC is […]

Data centers (DCs) in network softwarization and 5G eras are significantly different from those operated nowadays by public cloud providers. They are massively distributed, closer to end-users, heterogeneous (e.g., multi-access edge, central office as a data center, etc.) and rely on much more complex technologies (e.g., Network Functions Virtualization [NFV] and Software-Defined Networking [SDN]). This […]

L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer l’impact du fonctionnement d’un prototype du système d’automatisation MOBILE dans un environnement représentatif à l’aide d’un modèle de simulation à évènements discrets. Ce système a pour objectif de permettre : i) une automatisation des chargements et des déchargements des laveurs; ii) une sélection automatique des laveurs et de leurs […]

The objective is to develop the best practices for the determination of manoeuvring coefficients by solving RANS equations. The commercial CFD package, Star-CCM+, will be employed. Results will be used to develop mathematical manoeuvring models. Studies will be carried out for three ships with and without appendages. Various scales will be used to investigate the […]

Technologies EllenSee Inc. se veut devenir un acteur majeur dans le domaine de Ia securite des aines. Pour ce faire, un bracelet permettant de detecter les chutes. de reconnaitre des activites physiques journalieres et de surveiller les donnees medicales du porteur doit etre COn9U. Un tel outil permettra de reduire le temps de reaction du […]

The aim of this research and development project is to design and develop a bedside point-of-care device to be equipped with the CardiAI’s machine learning technology for heart failure management. our POC system will include disposable cardiac biomarker strips and an electronic reader. Once implemented, it will be connected to the AI platform that will […]

This proposal aims to investigate vocal production by users of Med-El cochlear implants (CI), in response to feedback alteration of their voice pitch. The originality of this proposal is to shift the usual focus of CI research from perception to production. We feel that the history of Med-El research on pitch coding would strongly benefit […]

Metafor is developing a new class of IT system management solutions and as a part of this, Metafor wants a method to show differences between multiple deployed instances of an application. Metafor would also like to have the ability to group many application in different clusters based on their structural similarities. We would like to […]

In recent years, globalization and increasing international traffic have allowed tree infecting micro-organisms and pests to colonize new forests and plantations. These invasions are a threat to global trade and the delicate ecological balance of our forests. Good examples are the Sudden Oak Death (SOD) outbreak caused by Phytophthora ramorum in California and the emerald […]

In nature, plants have evolved sophisticated defense mechanisms against insects, fungi, and other pests. When isolated, many of these chemicals have tremendous potential as natural pesticides, as they pose little threat to the environment, are non-toxic to the user, and are readily biodegradable. Recent research has determined a correlation between a novel compound found at […]

Evaluating the medicinal use of cannabinoids represents an area of massive untapped potential, especially considering its upcoming legalization in Canada. Currently, a significant proportion of medical cannabis research is based on self-reported use and outcomes, rather than carefully-designed research studies. Here, we aim to better understand the impact of cannabis administration in adults with obesity […]
