About Us

Healthcare systems worldwide are facing huge challenges in caring for an aging population and coping with the resulting increased incidence of complex diseases.

The UBC Biomedical Imaging and Artificial Intelligence Research Cluster aims to develop a deeper understanding of how molecular, cellular and tissue structure and organization relate to normal and diseased tissue function.

The Biomedical Imaging and Artificial Intelligence research cluster aims to develop groundbreaking solutions using vast amounts of data from multi-modal, multi-scale biomedical imaging, which will be collected/accessed, managed, and interpreted holistically through advanced artificial intelligence. This understanding will help alleviate pressures on healthcare systems by enabling effective personalized medicine.
