Wearable Technologies for Inferring and Enhancing Vestibular Balance Function

The vestibular organs detect head movement and are involved in the coordination of standing balance. With balance problems being a common and expensive healthcare cost internationally, there is a growing need for new diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices that target vestibular balance function. In particular, a wearable device that could be used outside the clinic […]

Antimicrobial activity of Kisameet Clay

The problem to be addressed is if detailed laboratory studies can be designed out to confirm and extend the historical, anecdotal information on the therapeutic/medicinal properties of Kisameet clay (KC). There is much non-scientific information alleging the potent antimicrobial activities of many clay products. In this research proposal we propose to carry out a detailed […]

Development of Cost-Effective Self-Consolidating Concrete ContainingSilica Breccia

The proposed project will focus on the development of low-cost, self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures containing a high volume of silica breccia. The workability, fresh properties and local unit cost of SCC containing 0-70% silica breccia (as a partial replacement for cement) will be investigated and compared with the control mixture and with other SCC mixtures […]

Modeling semi-batch reactive crystallization processes for particle sizecontrol and process scale-up

Reactive crystallization is a process commonly used for the production of chemical compounds including pharmaceutical ingredients. In a stirred-tank setup, one reagent solution stream is injected into the reactor where it meets a sitting solution of the other reagent. Reaction occurs as soon as the reagents meet, forming an insoluble product which quickly precipitates in […]

Generalization of chest x-ray disease prediction by learning feature representations agnostic to clinical domains

Chest radiography is a common and essential examination tool in medical practice for the diagnosis of lung diseases. Recent approaches in artificial intelligence have demonstrated that transfer learning of deep learning models was able to provide performance gains at the level of practicing radiologists. These techniques transfer the features learned on ImageNet to medical data […]
