But a UBC researcher is looking to change that. In this episode, Carol and Jeevan speak to David Black (BASc’21), a PhD candidate in electrical and computer engineering at UBC about his groundbreaking work on remote ultrasound imaging. Learn how he’s tapping into the power of mixed reality — which enables interactions between physical and digital worlds — to bring ultrasound diagnostics directly to patients.\nLINKS FROM THIS EPISODE\nContact Carol\nContact Jeevan\nFrom Here Forward\nFrom Here Forward is on LinkedIn\nLearn more about David’s Mitacs Innovation Award\nContact David","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/ENlau8ScqZWR8JSi4KOiwAZe_qqmcZHZjOdXPHbSrE0/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI4NDY2LzE2OTk0/NzA1MTItYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
