Professor and Queen's Research Chair in Computer-Assisted Surgery School of Computing Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department of Surgery Department of Biomedical and Molecular Sciences ![]() Supervisory Statement: I am no longer accepting new trainees under my supervision. Biographical Sketch: Welcome! I am a Professor at Queen's University at Kingston. My primary Queen's appointment is in the School of Computing; other appointments are as a Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, in the Department of Surgery, and in the Department of Biomedical and Molecular Sciences. My training and early-career research was in robotics, especially in haptic sensing and haptic interfaces for teleoperated robots. My main research has been in computer-assisted surgery, particularly in orthopedic surgery. My current research is in the use of data analytics and machine learning for mass spectrometry, which is a technique in analytical chemistry. I have had appointments as a Visiting Professor or Visiting Scientist in Bologna, Harvard Medical School, Johns Hopkins, Kyushu, Osaka, St. Francis Xavier, and the Technical University of Munich. I have been a Fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science and an Honorary Fellow of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Munich. I am currently a Fellow of the American Society for Mechanical Engineering (ASME) and a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). My late-career undergraduate teaching was mainly the theoretical and mathematical foundations for artificial intelligence and machine learning. The lectures for these courses are available through the links below. Previous Undergraduate Courses: Queen's University is situated on the territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek.
