Prevention of cardiovascular diseases\,\ncancer\, diabetes and many other diseases\, causes this fruit to be\nconsidered as a functional food. Not o nly the edible part of this\nmagic fruit promotes health benefits but the peel and seed are also\nvaluable sources of bio-components like antioxidan ts. The origi...n\nof this ancient fruit lies in Asian countries like Iran and India.\nAt present\, however\, it is cultivated in many other countri es with\nhot and dry climate.\n\nRojyar Moshrefi was born in Tehran\, Iran \, where she completed her\nBachelor’s at Shahid Beheshti University in th e field of Food\nScience and Technology. After working for a few years in the field\nof food science Rojyar decided to pursue her higher education\n outside of Iran. She left Iran for Sweden to obtain a Master’s\ndegree in the field of Biotechnology. At present\, Rojyar is in her\nfirst year as a PhD student in the Bioresource Engineering\nDepartment under the supervis ion of Professor Raghavan.\n\n\nItem 2: Tiff-Annie Kenny\nThe Nature\, Ori gin and Future of Human Life\n\nAll human beings are comprised of the char acteristic carbon-based\nmolecular architecture of life. Yet\, to the huma n being\, the\ndefinition of what constitutes “life” may imply a more cogn itive\nand sentient experience. This presentation will explore the\nessenc e\, development and future of human life on earth.\n\nTiff-Annie Kenny is originally from Northern Ontario but has since\nresided in Montreal to pur sue undergraduate studies in the\ndepartment of Bioresource Engineering. P resently\, Tiff-Annie is\nenrolled as an MSc. thesis student and is conduc ting a\nbiomass-heating study under the supervision of Dr. Mark\nLefsrud. \n\n\nItem 3: Hongyuan Deng\nThe Chinese Hot Pot\n\nThe hot pot is a Chine se cooking pot in which all kinds of food can\nbe cooked. It is very popul ar in most parts of China\, and is one of\nmy favourites. It Originated in China more than a thousand years\nago. It is usually infused with spices and can meet many different\npeople's needs.\n\nHongyuan was born in Jingz hou\, a small town in the central part of\nChina\, located in Hubei Provin ce. He finished his undergraduate\nstudies in Evironmental Engineering at Hubei University and is now\nworking on his Master's under the supervision of Professor Prasher\nin Bioresource Engineering.\n\n\nItem 4: Golmar Gol mohammadi\nModeling hydrology using SWAT\n\nIn the province of Quebec subs urface drainage is necessary for two\nmain reasons. First\, intensive crop ping of cereals\, forage\, and\nvegetables is practiced on heavy soils of lower hydraulic\nconductivity. Second\, the cropland is quite flat and abs orbs large\namounts of precipitation. The hydrologic performance of DRAINM OD\nwas assessed for the southern Quebec region. The model was\ncalibrated using water table depth and subsurface flow data over a\ntwo-year period. DRAINMOD simulated the timing and magnitude of\nsubsurface drainage event s.\n\nGolmar Golmohammadi is a second year Ph.D student in Water\nModeling . Her project is about the development of a hydrologic\nmodel at a watersh ed scale. Her supervisors are Professors Prasher\nand Madani. She has also worked as a GIS and water resources expert\nin Middle East Water & Enviro nment and with Pars Ray Ab\nConsulting Engineers Company.\n\n\nItem 5: Yam una Sampathkumar\nFood Legumes – A boon to human nutrition\n\n“Pulses' or' Legumes' occupy an important place in human nutrition.\nHere I am going t o present an overview of Lentils - an ancient crop\nwhich is mainly used f or human consumption. I will highlight its\nimportance\, nutrition and exp loring new ways to include in our\ndaily diet. Discover a tasty\, nutritio us and versatile food.\n\nYamuna Sampathkumar was born in India where she completed her\nBachelor’s of Technology degree in Biotechnology from SASTR A\nUniversity. Yamuna is currently in her second year as a Master’s\nstude nt under the supervision of Dr. Raghavan.\n DTSTART:20110324T140000Z DTEND:20110324T153000Z LOCATION:Raymond Building\, CA\, QC\, St Anne de Bellevue\, H9X 3V9\, 21111 Lakeshore Road SUMMARY:BIORESOURCE ENGINEERING SENIOR SEMINAR URL:/channels/event/bioresource-engineering-senior-sem inar-173060 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
