Last night we said goodbye and celebrated our post-doctoral fellow Renzo and visiting PhD student Robert! Best of luck on your future endeavours!

Earlier this week, we had the pleasure of hosting @JohnsHopkins Prof. Peter Kazanzides at the lab! It was a fantastic visit, and we’re greatful for the opportunity to showcase some of our projects and learn from his expertise!

Last week our PerkLab team had a wonderful opportunity to showcase our latest research findings in the field of medical imaging at #SPIE2023 in San Diego last week. @QueensComputing @MediLabQueens @SPIEtweets @queensuResearch

Congrats to Prof. Gabor Fichtinger on his induction into The Royal Society of Canada.

Yesterday Dr. Fichtinger and Dr. Diao (collaborator in Senegal) presented their work on Train the Trainers at the Queen’s Kaleidoscope Institute symposium.

Today we had an amazing opportunity to demonstrate some of our work to the Ambassador and Trade Secretary of Burkina Faso and Benin! We hope this will lead to @QueensComputing having some awesome new collaborators in both Burkina Faso and Benin in the future!

Congrats to our very own Sindhura Thirumal and Colton Barr for placing 2nd and 3rd at the #3MT (3 Minute Thesis) first round competition! Looking forward to the finals! #research #thesis #computing @MediLabQueens

Furthermore, three @PerkLabResearch and @MediLabQueens MSc students took home well-deserved awards for their amazing pitches! Congratulations to Laura Connolly, Alice Santilli, and Andrea Perera-Ortega! #womenintech #computerscience #biomedicalcomputing

Coming off an exciting week for @PerkLabResearch at #ImNO2021! Our talented group of undergrad, MSc, and PhD students gave 12 incredible presentations and pitches on their #research. Take a look at some screenshots of our presentations at the #virtualconference!

Last week, some of our @PerkLabResearch students attended the @SPIEtweets #SPIEMedicalImaging 2021 conference! Check out some snapshots of the virtual presentations by Julia Wiercigroch, Olivia O'Driscoll, and Catherine Wu. #womenintech #research

CONGRATS to our very own @PerkLabResearch and @MediLabQueens MSc student Alice Santilli for her third-place finish at the Ontario Regional 3MT (3 minute thesis) competition! Check out a screenshot of her incredible presentation, "Sniffing out breast cancer"! #3mt #research

This week's #PerkFromHome gives us a look at Rebecca Hisey's cool workspaces! Currently, she is writing a publication on Central Line Tutor (@3DSlicerApp) as well as developing methods for automatic assessment of physician competency in US-guided interventions. #research #PhD

This week's #PerkFromHome features MSc student, Abigael Schonewille! This summer, she is creating an @3DSlicerApp extension that will allow for a 3D US to guide an abdominal needle biopsy and generate registration of a pre-operative CT or MRI. Check out her work space below!

Our weekly #PerkFromHome segment features Keiran Barr! This summer, Keiran is working on generating automatic bone segmentation in ultrasound images using a U-Net. Check out his tidy work space below and zoom in for a sneak peek of the bone segmentation!
