AI enabled audio-visual annotation for endoscopic procedures

Video endoscopy is the main diagnostic and screening method for cancer screening in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Currently, the endoscopic video is not sufficiently documented, which makes reviewing of these videos difficult. The research team will partner with the company to develop an audio/video recording technology to combine physician voice annotation of the video during […]

Study of swine metabolism in a cell line model

Understanding swine metabolism is important to the pork industry, for the improvement of feed efficiency and meat quality, in addition to animal wellbeing. We have recently discovered two stress genes (Luman/CREB3 and LRF/CREBRF) that regulate animal responses to stress. Mutation of these Luman or LRF gene resulted in animals that are more tolerate to stress, […]
