Title of the research project
Design, operationalization and validation of a sustainable health evaluation model adapted to a digital platform
Description

The project focuses on the design, operationalization and validation of a sustainable health evaluation model.
This model will be adapted to a digital platform and based on solid theoretical and conceptual foundations. Furthermore, it will gather valid indicators and will be supplied by data showing a global and ecosystem conception of health.
Once operationalized, implemented and validated in a cohort study, this model will represent an innovative strategy for sustainable health through improved technologies and intervention methods.

Effect of oxygen pressure in cancerous tissue cells on radiotherapy treatments

Student member : Corinne Chouinard

Radiotherapy treatments currently used in the clinical field are rarely modified. They generally consist of a global therapy of 50 grays, fractionated in five treatments of two grays every week for five weeks.
Thus, it could be worthwhile to develop a numeric tool, based on mathematical models found in the literature, in order to compare different types of treatment without having to test them on real tissues. Several parameters are known to alter the tissue response after irradiation including oxygen
