U of M Grad Student B.Sc.
Biomedical Engineer
“I hope to improve patient care through my research and with the support of a great engineering and clinical team.”
Jessie recently started her Biomedical Engineering Master’s program at the University of Manitoba and is currently working at the Orthopaedic Innovation Centre (OIC) as a clinical analyst on a part-time basis. In her role at OIC she will be working on radiostereometric analysis (RSA), and her Master’s thesis work will involve validating the next generation technology for RSA: using CT scanners (Advanced CT Based Image Tracking for Next Generation Research).
During her undergraduate degree at the University of Manitoba, Jessie was exposed to the work of the Orthopedic Innovation Centre by her instructor, Sara Gustafson, who taught a course on the Applications of Engineering in Medicine and who is one of OIC’s technical leads.
Jessie is excited to be working with the team of Biomedical Engineers at OIC. “Biomedical Engineering is a small community that is strong and driven within Manitoba.”
We welcome Jessie to the Concordia Arthroplasty Research team and look forward to sharing our values and goals with her and others as we focus on training the next generation of researchers.
