The Centre for Bioengineering and Biotechnology is pleased to present the innovative work of Professor Alexander Wong.

COVID-19 has brought disease and mortality at levels not seen from a respiratory virus for over 100 years. Immune responses to this virus, which can infect several different tissues, are poorly understood, including the role of antibodies in resolving the infection. In March 2020, we reoriented our lab to develop Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assays (ELISA) for human antibody isotypes IgM, IgG and IgA produced in response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. To date we have analyzed samples from 114 patients, including both PCR positive and PCR negative individuals.

Rohan Shanbhag, VP of ML and AI Strategy, will be discussing how Achu Health has developed a personalized health and wellness platform driven by a proprietary machine learning algorithm on-device that uses passively collected biometric data from wearables to predict the onset of illness before symptoms appear. Achu Health aims to assess the scientific rigour of its technology to ensure that the evaluation can be backed by Health Science professionals in providing meaningful value to the end user.

CBB Profs Present...Cognitive-motor interactions and their implications for motor learning-based interventions post-stroke with Sean Meehan

The efficacy of skilled practice in promoting beneficial brain reorganization to affect functional recovery has long been appreciated. However, current best practices to stroke rehabilitation are labour intensive and characterized by variable levels of functional recovery. In many cases, recovery of function in the stroke-affected limb is incomplete.
