Acted as a consultant on the development of a ‘Do Live Well’ workshops for Sung Ha Kim in her pursuit of a PhD. The workshops will serve as the basis for a study.
In addition, I’m providing technical expertise and training on the use of WordPress. The platform is being modified to be used as a basic learning management system in order to carry out the online portion of the study.

Over the course of 2019 I will be working with Dr. Ilana Bayer on a study titled ‘ Developing and Supporting Faculty in Using Educational Technologies in Health Sciences Education.
We will be reviewing and writing a report on data that was collected in 2016.
This work was presented at the Experiment Biology 2018 conference that ran from April 21st to April 25th 2018 (San Diego, California).
Using a Google Cardboard application, we will be studying the device(s) effectiveness as a teaching tool for anatomy via DICOM images.
A student with the McMaster anatomy lab previously created a ‘Fabric Pelvis’ for use in study. Bone was replaced by a 3D-printed component, while layers of flesh were replaced with sewn-fabric layers.
I will supervise and consult on the development of a VR recreation of this ‘Fabric Pelvis’. The two models will be compared in a research study to compare effectiveness as teaching tools.
