MECH, MAL lab, ICICS involved in UBC-Fraunhofer Collaboration on Industrial Digital Transformation
Within APSC, the collaboration is being supported by the Manufacturing Automation Laboratory (under the leadership of Prof. Yusuf Altintas), the Department of Mechanical Engineering, the Bradshaw Research Initiative for Minerals and Mining, and the Institute for Computing, Information and Cognitive Systems. Aerospace, automotive and machine tools manufacturing can look forward to new digital services that […]
Marine Industry selects winning designs at 2022 NAME Student Design Celebration
This spring the UBC Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering program returned to an in-person Student Design Celebration for the first time since the beginning of the pandemic. After two years of online student presentations, we were able to welcome back our marine industry colleagues and alumni to a sold-out evening of networking, dinner and design. […]
Research collaboration on cancer therapy receives CIHR Project Grant
Mechanical Engineering Associate Professor Hongshen Ma and the School of Biomedical Engineering’s Professor Megan Levings have received a Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Project Grant to support their research collaboration on chimeric antigen receptor cell therapies used to treat cancer. The purpose of the CIHR Project Grant Program is to “contribute to the creation […]
UBC team deploys pollution-sniffing mobile lab
Watch out, Vancouver. The PLUME van is coming soon to a location near you. An “air pollution lab on wheels,” PLUME will be used to measure concentrations of air pollutants across the city including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, ground-level ozone, black carbon, methane, volatile organic compounds, and various sizes of ultrafine particles that can affect […]
New “See-N-Seq” technology enables RNA sequencing of specific single cells identified using microscopy
The Multi Scale Design Laboratory (MDL) lead by Professor Hongshen Ma has recently published a new paper, “See-N-Seq: RNA sequencing of target single cells identified by microscopy via micropatterning of hydrogel porosity”. MDL researchers have developed a new method, “See-N-Seq,” that uses a micropatterned hydrogel to capture target cells for single cell RNA sequencing. This […]
