Congratulations to AI Institute members Laura Middleton (AHS), Edith Law (Math), Anindya Sen (Arts), Plinio Morita (AHS), and Omar Ramahi (Engineering) on being awarded research grants from a fund established by the University of Waterloo and the University of Bordeaux to support collaborative projects between the two campuses. Several of the collaborative projects arose out of a workshop on AI and Health held at the University of Bordeaux in April of this year that was co-organized by Waterloo AI Institute and the University of Bordeaux.
Combining the University's world-renowned research and BlackBerry's proven ability in delivering impactful products and services, the two organizations will work together to develop a plan for continuous joint innovation, with the goal of creating a joint lab that will fast track the development of research and technology into products that can ultimately be taken to market.
