I recently started my summer internship at the SickKids Goldenberg Lab. I am creating an AI and Computer Vision system which analyzes cell microscopy images and helps detect Ciliopathy in patients. Utilizing this system will also allow researchers to determine which genes cause this genetic disorder. I am so excited to work with all the amazing people on the Goldenberg team and will update you on my progress next Newsletter!

For the past few weeks, I have been working hard on the a Moonshot Hackathon. A competition where students are challenged to create moonshot companies that will shape the future of technology. After loads of research into complex topics, my team and I started Acuity, which aims to further develop our understanding of neural behavior and EEG data using AI and Deep Learning models. I will be pitching our idea at the competition this weekend!

In June I also finished my school exams and subsequently, my school year! Huge thanks to all of my teachers and staff who taught and helped me throughout the year!
