This virtual workshop offers a unique opportunity for organizations to engage with academic experts in meaningful dialogue, discussing ideas and charting new paths to address the industry’s challenges in enhancing image quality and accelerating diagnoses. Medical imaging facilitates the early detection and treatment of medical conditions, potentially saving lives. These technologies provide detailed information that informs treatment plans, guides surgical interventions and enables follow-up by monitoring treatment efficacy. Despite their benefits, there is significant room for improvement to provide quicker diagnoses and real-time information during surgery.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> Fri, 04 Oct 2024 14:30:00 +0000 Lisa Loiselle 1685 at /research PSC Safeguarding Science workshop /research/events/psc-safeguarding-science-workshop <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">PSC Safeguarding Science workshop</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/research/users/loiselle" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">Lisa Loiselle</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 06/19/2024 - 13:55</span> <section class="uw-contained-width uw-section-spacing--default uw-section-separator--none uw-column-separator--none layout layout--uw-1-col"><div class="layout__region layout__region--first"> <div class="uw-text-align--left block block-layout-builder block-inline-blockuw-cbl-copy-text"> <div class="uw-copy-text"> <div class="uw-copy-text__wrapper "> <p><span><span><span>Faculty members, staff (i.e., Research staff, Safety Office staff, Research Ethics staff, and Information Systems & Technology staff involved in research using biological, chemical, radiological, or nuclear materials or technology) and students<span><span><span><span>, </span></span></span></span><span><span>are invited to join Public Safety Canada (PSC) for the Safeguarding Science workshop.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span>The purpose of the 90-minute workshop, offered by Public Safety’s </span></span><a href="https://www.canada.ca/en/services/defence/researchsecurity/about.html"><span><span>Research Security Centre</span></span></a><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span><span><span>,</span></span></span></span><span><span> is to raise awareness within Canada's scientific and academic communities about research security-related issues.
