Congratulations are extended to two of our researchers for their independent recent awards under the NSERC / CIHR Collaborative Health Research Program (CHRP). Competition for these awards is intense; about 10% of applicants are successful.
Dr. Randy Ellis’ research project entitled “Kinematics-based navigation for reconstructive hip surgery,” with co-applicants Drs. Abolmaesumi, Bryant, Rudan and our own Dr. Gabor Fichtinger was funded. Drs. Pichora and Taylor will collaborate on this project.
As well, Dr. James Stewart’s research project entitled “New methods for articular cartilage repair through computer-assisted surgery,” with co-applicants Drs. Bryant, Deluzio, Waldman, Rudan, Fenton and Bardana was funded.
We are very proud to have these nationally recognized biomedical computing experts in our School.
