Another concept for AI in challenging neurological developments
Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are abnormal bulges in a blood vessel in the brain that have a potential to rupture and even causing a stroke, which can lead to lasting brain damage, long-term disability, or even loss of life. It has been widely acknowledged that hemodynamic factors, e.g., instantaneous wall shear stress, time-averaged wall shear stress, wall shear stress gradient, gradient oscillatory number, oscillatory shear index, pulsatile blood flow waveform (flow rate magnitude and shape, physical flow period), relative residence time/turnover time, blood pressure, and vortex (i.e., size, location, and numbers), have a close relationship with the pathobiology (i.e., initiation, growth, and rupture) of IAs [1–9], apart from the ambiguous family history and genetic factors, and other non-modifiable factors (e.g., gender, age, at-risk disorders) [10]
Inspired by rapid developments in artificial intelligence-driven and big data-supported scientific computing, physics-informed DL and deep hidden physics models [19–22] have a growing potential to be employed to predict hemodynamic characteristics in IAs and assess rupture risks using preclinical images (i.e., magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and computed tomography angiography (CTA)) and CFD modeling

Hello to all members of ETEC 523. I am a bit late in starting so will endeavour to move right along.
WHY this course
My healthcare background as Nurse Clinician and Liaison for Nunavik ( Northern Quebec) brings unique challenges and wonderful learning experiences. I work exclusively with the Inuit in Nunavik and as such am privileged to enjoy an in-depth view of Inuit life and culture.
One of my recent projects was a combination of McGill U. and the Douglas Mental Health Institute where our research on Inuit Resilience and Empowerment was published by Springer earlier this year. Part of the ongoing strategy is use of VR in mental health and is still being developed. alongside other interventions. My experience with VR in this context also reinforces my understanding and learning of the inherent VR power and impact upon the brain and neurological effects depending of course, on the design of the VR program.
The ultimate goal of these studies is a development of a tool which can address Inuit Suicide in the north, particularly among young Inuit and how communities are deeply impacted.
BIO
I have a B.ScN , M.Sc Strategic HR Development and Training ( UK, London) and more recently graduated with a M.Ed ALGC.
Our family"s global experience has nurtured and supported my M.Ed studies as did the context of the program.
We have lived and worked in France, Sweden, Singapore ( plus travel in SE Asia, Australia and 3 +years in West Africa with shorter bursts in NY, South America ( Columbia and Brazil).
I think that VR and Educational technology crosses all of these borders in a seamless way but can leave large footprints. So cognisance of this fact is a benchmark in the design and use of VR or any Ed.Tech. method.
Personal
Love travel, ( yep) language learning, cooking and sharing recipes, My daughter and her friend run a blog from Stockholm Sweden called Krydhyllor ( Spice rack) which shares stories and recipes from friends and colleagues worldwide who presently live, study and work in Stockholm ,
Music, classical guitar and art are other favourites as is walking in the forests in Northern Sweden where we have a old family wooden home which is constantly in need of TLC.
I look forward to learning and sharing with all of you
Best Wishes, Joy
