We are pleased to congratulate one of our lab members Mikayla Neeb on the successful defence of her thesis, "Use of Large Language Models (LLMs) in Qualitative Analysis: Evaluating LLMs as Assistive Coding Agents", January 16, 2026.

Congratulations Mikayla on this well-deserved accomplishment!

Developing new drugs to treat illnesses has typically been a slow and expensive process. However, a team of researchers at the University of Waterloo uses machine learning to speed up the development time.

The Waterloo research team has created "Imagand," a generative artificial intelligence model that assesses existing information about potential drugs and then suggests their potential properties.
