Cancer is a complex disease that involves multiple changes in normal cell biology, all of them leading to increased and abnormal cell replication. Depending on the tissue type, this uncontrolled tissue growth ultimately causes organ malfunction and a wide variety of signs and symptoms which, all together, indicate a pathological state which needs to be […]

Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD) is an umbrella term for diseases that affect the jaw. It is a common but often underdiagnosed condition that can cause significant jaw pain, limited movement, and long-term oral health issues. Accurate diagnosis relies heavily on the precise identification of tiny jaw structures in medical imaging, a task that remains challenging […]

In collaboration with the Provincial Community Paramedicine Program at Ontario Health, Renfrew County Paramedics is leading the development of a Minimum Data Set (MDS) in an effort to improve CP integration with Ontario Health Teams. This project will focus on the development of a robust data governance framework that includes the development of core data […]

This project tackles a major challenge in modern brain imaging: advanced techniques like diffusion MRI and tractography are powerful tools for studying conditions such as multiple sclerosis, dementia, and brain cancer, but they rely on expensive, high-resolution scanners that are often unavailable in routine clinical settings—especially in underserved or rural communities. These methods also struggle […]
