HeART Lab members recently attended the Canadian Celebration of Women in Computing (CAN-CWiC) hosted by CS-Can | Info-Can at York University. We presented our latest work on ‘Designing Small-scale Magnetic Soft Robots using Evolutionary Algorithms’.
All of the attendees were supported by the inaugural CAN-CWiC Travel Grant generously sponsored by the Department of Computing and Software at Faculty of Engineering – McMaster University. Thank you to Dr. Swati Mishra for all her hard work in making this possible. Congratulations to all of the attendees and presenters.
