Professor Emeritus and Queen's Research Chair in Computer-Assisted Surgery (retired) Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Fellow of the American Society of Mechancial Engineering School of Computing Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department of Surgery Department of Biomedical and Molecular Sciences  Retirement Statement: I am not accepting new students or trainees in any capacity. Biographical Sketch: Welcome! I was previously a Professor at Queen's University at Kingston. My primary Queen's appointment was in the School of Computing; other appointments were 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.
