Happy Holidays from Health-X Lab!

At the Forum de l’innovation en santé at University of Montreal, Health-X lab members Pascal Spiegler and Haitham Abdel-Salam showcased our lab's surgical VR work in collaboration with Drs. Alexander Weil and Aris Hdjinicolaou from St Justine Hospital.

It is always rewarding to see the excitement from the audience when demonstrating our research outcomes live!

We had a great time at CVPR 2025 to discuss our multi-modal medical vision work with the broader vision community, meeting some old friends and making new connections.
Congratulations to our PhD trainee Taha Koleilat for his presentation at the conference!

Congratulations to our trainees Taha Koleilat and Soorena Salari for receiving Doctoral scholarships from FRQNT and FRQS!

The year of 2024 is wrapping up soon.
​It is great to have the lab members together for a bit of celebration :)

This year, our Health-X Lab had a number of presentations on medical AI and VR research, including generative AI and foundation models at MICCAI 2024, the leading venue for medical image computing and image-guided surgery. 

Notably, our MSc graduate Reihaneh Teimouri received nomination for the best paper and young investigator awards, and MSc trainee Christopher Neves won the best paper award (1st place) at the MICCAI Machine Learning in Clinical Neuroimaging (MLCN) workshop! 

We are grateful for the insightful discussions and interests for our works from the community. Look forward to sharing more exciting research in the coming year!

Congrats to our undergraduate trainee Owen Hellum (CUSRA2021&2023), who has been featured in the Concordia University news!
