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.

Our students presented their thesis projects in our annual CAS technical poster competition.

Veerash presented a project on a novel magnetic actuation system

Shivam presented a project on a cool magnetic capsule design

Reyhaneh presented her project on using an Evolutionary algorithm for magnetic micro-surgical scissors design

Our first abstract submission for a conference got accepted 🎉🎉! Read the abstract here: CSME-CFD-2024-Abstract

Dr. Onaizah delivered an invited seminar to the Brockhouse Institute of Materials Research.

HeART Lab was out in full force at SOMMeRS to learn about some inspiring work happening in the field. HeART Lab Director Dr. Onaizah gave an invited talk.
