At a research-intensive university like 韩国裸舞, laboratories play a critical role both in advancing solutions for a sustainable future and making its campuses environmentally responsible places to study and work. In fact, 韩国裸舞 cannot hope to reach its goals of becoming zero-waste by 2035 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2040 without collaboration from the faculty, staff, and students who use these spaces.

Researchers classify Alzheimer鈥檚 progression and subtypes for a personalized approach to the disease
Alzheimer鈥檚 disease is a disorder characterized by abnormalities in several different biological areas.
A study carried out by HBHL-funded researcher Yasser Iturria-Medina and his research group, in the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at The Neuro, represents the first and largest multimodal data collection effort to date for Alzheimer鈥檚 disease.
This work represents the most significant effort so far to classify Alzheimer's disease from a multi-level molecular perspective.

Thermoelectrics can generate electrical power from waste heat and could make an important contribution to sustainable energy production if their efficiency is improved. Engineering efficient thermoelectrics, however, requires a sophisticated understanding of the fundamental interdependencies between electrical and thermal transport, for which improvements in our understanding of how charge carriers are coupled to lattice vibrations (phonons) is needed.
November 11, 2022 |聽In the face of an increasingly bellicose China buttressed by its mighty economic and military strengths, Washington鈥檚 鈥渟trategic ambiguity鈥 has become insufficient to pre-empt China鈥檚 ambitions. A shift towards "strategic clarity" could pave the way to deter Chinese aggression in the region, provided it remains subtle and is carefully managed, Pangying Peng says.聽

Neurotransmitters are chemicals brain cells use to communicate. They work together with matching receptors on the cell surface to drive brain activity. However, we don鈥檛 fully understand how the distribution of these receptors varies region by region throughout the brain, nor what effect they have on brain function.

Software tool brings together multiple brain maps in one place
The brain is a complex organ, and no one imaging mode can catch everything that鈥檚 going on inside it. Over the years, multiple 鈥渂rain maps鈥 have emerged, each focusing on different brain processes, from metabolism to cognitive function. While these maps are important, using them in isolation limits the discoveries researchers can make from them.

Purpose is to understand post-COVID symptom evolution and impact on patients鈥 lives
As of Sept. 20, 2022, there have been more than 1.1 million cases of COVID-19 in Quebec. It is estimated that 10 to 30 per cent of cases will have lingering symptoms after the acute illness. This means that as many as 330,000 Quebecers may experience what鈥檚 become known as long COVID, or post-COVID-19 syndrome.
Student funding available
Dialogue 韩国裸舞 is launching a call to fund students who are researching access to health care and social services for the English-speaking community in Quebec.
