In healthcare, AI-powered imaging systems assist with detecting abnormalities in radiology scans, segmenting organs, and tracking disease progression. In manufacturing, automated visual inspection systems can identify microscopic defects and ensure quality control at speeds that are beyond human capabilities.
University of Guelph researchers Dr. Ed Sykes (pictured left) and Dr. Gurjit Randhawa of the School of Computer Science in the College of Computational, Mathematical and Physical Sciences have each received $25,000 from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) through quantum research collaboration grants.
For University of Guelph student Thomas Toet, studying chemical physics is about understanding how the world works and sharing that curiosity with others. As he prepares to graduate, Toet hopes to bring that passion for physics and chemistry to the classroom as a teacher.

At the University of Guelph, Dr. Gurjit S. Randhawa is using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve how we forecast air quality, focused on coastal regions like Halifax, Charlottetown and St. John’s, where sudden sea breezes, temperature shifts and seasonal variability make predictions particularly challenging.
A University of Guelph software engineering student is developing an AI-powered platform designed to help research teams organize data, maintain continuity and improve collaboration across complex projects.
Quintal will spend three months in Germany working at Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel.
Seafood is a major global commodity and a critical source of income, nutrition, and livelihood worldwide. Yet high demand, opaque supply chains, and lax labelling regulations incentivize opportunistic fishers, wholesalers, and retailers to commit seafood fraud. This can include mislabelling, substituting, and/or adulterating seafood products. The effects of seafood fraud create a negative consumer experience and erodes trust in supply chain management, making it difficult for consumers to make informed choices, access accurate information within the industry, and encourages harvesters to engage in illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing.
