The team has access to an experimental watershed located on a salmon river (Rivi\u00e8re Ste-Marguerite) and a mobile laboratory, enabling it to characterize the physical habitat of rivers, conduct telemetric monitoring of fish, and develop sophisticated statistical approaches that take into account the variety of scales and levels of data to analyze. This laboratory is the first of its kind in Quebec (and all of Canada), and it will help improve our knowledge of fish habitats and ensure the sustainable development of river ecosystems to give managers the tools they need to make informed water resource management decisions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DESIGN OF ORGANOMETALLIC CATALYSTS AND THERAPEUTICS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The advanced inert atmosphere facility for the design of organometallic catalysts and therapeutics, a first at INRS and one of the rare facilities of its kind in Montreal, will allow Professor&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/dev.inrs.ca\/en\/research\/professors\/annie-castonguay\/\">Annie Castonguay<\/a>&nbsp;of the INRS\u2013Institut Armand-Frappier Centre to investigate topics at the interface of chemistry and biology. Her research program will lead to innovate metallic therapeutics and thermoresponsive delivery platforms with the potential to overcome numerous problems associated with existing metal-based chemotherapies. Another aspect of her research program also involves the study of organometallic complexes based on relatively abundant metals, which have traditionally been overlooked to achieve catalytic reactions of high importance.
