Position for an MSc student​
​
Genomic tools for quantifying antibiotic resistance genes in black soldier fly breeding products
​
CONTEXT AND SUMMARY
We are seeking a motivated student to join our team for a project focused on developing genomic tools for quantifying antibiotic resistance, through the bioinformatics-based detection and characterization of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) within bacterial communities associated with black soldier flies and their breeding substrates. The objective of this project is to assess whether the inclusion of residual antibiotic medicated feed in larval diets contributes to the risk of bacterial antibiotic resistance.​

Titre du projet de recherche : Optimisation du schéma posologique de certains antibiotiques et caractérisation de l'effet de nouvelles approches alternatives dans le traitement de la colibacillose chez la poule pondeuse
​
PROJET
Les schémas posologiques actuels des antimicrobiens utilisés en filière ponte au Canada ont été établis il y a plusieurs décennies selon des études menées sur un nombre limité d'animaux sains. Pratiquement aucune preuve scientifique ne peut supporter le choix de ces posologies et l'impact de cette utilisation sur la sélection des bactéries résistantes est sous-documenté. L’utilisation de stratégies alimentaires (farine d’insectes et phytodérivés) limitant l’impact de la colibacillose sur le bien-être et les performances des poules pondeuses, et permettant de réduire l’utilisation des antibiotiques dans ce secteur, doit continuer à être investiguée. Les différentes techniques de pointe en microbiologie moléculaire (le séquençage du génome entier, la métagénomique par approche shotgun, la qPCR, etc.) et la technique analytique (HPLC-MS/MS) seront utilisées dans le cadre de ce projet. Ce projet implique une équipe multi-disciplinaire dont l’expertise touche les domaines de la santé animale, de la microbiologie, de la pharmacologie, et de l’épidémiologie des maladies infectieuses animales.

Caractérisation des mouvements porcins pour améliorer la santé du cheptel et réduire l'utilisation des antimicrobiens au Québec.
​
Poste d'étudiant-e Maîtrise (M.Sc.) ou Doctorat (Ph.D.)
​
PROJET
Le mouvement d’animaux entre les fermes porcines est considéré comme un des plus importants facteurs de risque pour la transmission des agents infectieux. La production sur plusieurs sites accentue le nombre de mouvements nécessaires à la production porcine. Au Québec, la structure du réseau créé par les différents mouvements demeure très peu décrite tout comme son impact sur la transmission des agents pathogènes, limitant ainsi les recommandations pouvant être émises. L’objectif du présent projet est de décrire la structure globale du réseau de mouvements associés à l’espèce porcine et d’identifier des éléments critiques pour la propagation des maladies infectieuses.
