AI Impact in Neuroengineering, Rehabilitation and Medical Robotics

Published on: 25 October 2022

Currently there is a need to have multiple therapists assisting patients in rehabilitation, which is time intensive and places physical strain on the therapists. Professor Sandy Brauer from the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and Dr Alejandro Melendez-Calderon from the School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering explain how AI can be used as a tool to help us deliver the highest quality of health care in close integration with human expertise.

2022 UQ Workshop on Artificial Intelligence

Workshop

We are pleased to announce the 2nd UQ Workshop on Artificial Intelligence (AI). At UQ, researchers from across faculties and institutes are actively working on the development, application, and implications of AI in a diverse range of disciplines and application domains. Following the much-enjoyed university-wide workshop last year, the 2022 UQ Workshop on AI brings an opportunity for UQ experts (academics and students alike) to share knowledge and expertise, and importantly, build our community for exploring synergies and developing collaborations around AI.

AI Seminar Series

Seminar

AI Seminar Series will explore relevant topics in artificial intelligence and invite industry speakers and researchers to share their knowledge, experience and success - promoting transdisciplinary AI research and collaboration.

Movement neuroscience and computational neuromechanics

Our research aims at understanding neuromechanical mechanisms that underlie healthy and impaired sensorimotor function.

Neuroengineering and rehabilitation

Our research aims at understanding and aid the recovery of, assist or replace, functions lost because of neurological disease or injury such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's disease, or spinal cord injury.

Brain development and information processing

Explores how brains process information, particularly during development.

Laser technology and early detection of cancer

Research focuses on the development of technologies for sensing and imaging across the electromagnetic spectrum including microwave, terahertz wave and optical systems.
