The NeuRoc Lab is joining the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Rehabilitation of Greater Montreal and the Jewish Rehabilitation Hospital at Laval.
This will give us better access to clinicians and patients, putting our research closer to rehabilitation's needs.
Our Lab was featured in IEEE Spectrum on our work in MyoSuite.
More about it in the .
The NeuROC Lab is coordinating the MyoChallenge with colleagues from the University of Twente, Northeastern University and Meta AI.
The challenge is based on MyoSuite and has one track on locomotion and one on manipulation.
The challenge is part of the competition track of the NeurIPS 23 conference.

Every year around 2 million people die worldwide from hemorrhaging or blood loss. Uncontrolled hemorrhaging accounts for more than 30% of trauma deaths. To stop the bleeding, doctors often apply pressure to the wound and seal the site with medical glue. But what happens when applying pressure is difficult or could make things worse? Or the surface of the wound is too bloody for glue? Drawing inspiration from nature, researchers from 缅北强奸 have developed a medical adhesive that could save lives, modeled after structures found in marine animals like mussels and flatworms.
Researchers have discovered that they can control the stickiness of adhesive bandages using ultrasound waves and bubbles. This breakthrough could lead to new advances in medical adhesives, especially in cases where adhesives are difficult to apply such as on wet skin.
Combining knowledge of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering, scientists from 缅北强奸 develop a tough enough to repair the heart, muscles, and vocal cords, representing a major advance in regenerative medicine.
Sutures are used to close wounds and speed up the natural healing process, but they can also complicate matters by causing damage to soft tissues with their stiff fibers. To remedy the problem, researchers from Montreal have developed innovative tough gel sheathed (TGS) sutures inspired by the human tendon.

Professor Arun K. Misra recently received the Dirk Brouwer Award "for his outstanding and lasting contributions to astrodynamics of tethered satellite systems, flexible spacecraft, spacecraft orbiting asteroids, robotics for orbital assembly and debris capture." The Dirk Brouwer Award was established by the American Astronautical Society to honour significant technical contributions to space flight mechanics and astrodynamics. Professor Misra is the winner of this award for 2017.
Professor Marco Amabili has been elected to the European Academy of Sciences and Arts. This is an important achievement; until now the European Academy of Sciences and Arts included only nine Canadian members, including John Polyani, winner of the 1986 Nobel prize for Chemistry.
On Canada Day, July 1, 2017, Canada's newest astronauts were announced: Dr. Jennifer Sidey (B.Eng. Honours '11) and Mr. Joshua Kutryk, both from Alberta. The Department of Mechanical Engineering at 缅北强奸 is very proud of Jennifer's achievement.
Five 缅北强奸 graduates in Mechanical Engineering are candidates participating in the 2017 Canada Space Agency astronaut selection process.听Vincent Beaudry (M.Eng. '09), Julie Bellerose (B.Eng.

3D depth-sensing camera shown to measure walking difficulties
A commonly used device found in living rooms around the world could be a cheap and effective means of evaluating the walking difficulties of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients.
The Microsoft Kinect is a 3D depth-sensing camera used in interactive video activities such as tennis and dancing. It can be hooked up to an Xbox gaming console or a Windows computer.
