Teaching: UQO course material links · Research: PhD thesis chapter PDFs

Teaching — new 'Professor UQO' section with IMM1003 & IMM1033 cards
(course plan PDF, 14-session slides, 3 practical assignments each),
plus the Québec real-estate market report and full repo links.

Research — new 'PhD Thesis' section: full thesis PDF (188 pp.) and the
three chapter cards, each with Paper PDF + LaTeX source links to the
phd-thesis repo. Chapter 1 PDF was compiled and pushed to that repo
(fixed an apalike/natbib conflict).

All 11 external links verified 200.
